About this house rental

This fully equiped Bach offers a classic Kiwiana feel with its two for one tidy old school style living quarters on a 1000m2 flat section set right next to a small canal full of pet eels along with all sorts of native birds including the Bandit Rail & Teal duck. Plenty of room for tents, back yard cricket, manoeuvring the boat etc & just 90 second walk to the beach.
Sea donut, kayak’s, water sports gear including swing-ball, cricket set, boules, frisbee etc all available for use, just respect - look after & clean after use. No rugby or soccer balls to be use around the Bach’s, please use reserve.
Boat wash area, fish filleting station, smoke / marshmallow fire house, BBQ.

Kiwi Bach tradition is to bring your own sheets, pillow cases, towels, tea towels, linen etc (duvets & pillows on site) and leave the Bach in the same state as you found it in, do the dishes & cleaning, ie wipe benches, clean bathroom & toilet, sweep / vacuum & mop floors, take your own rubbish home with you, welcome to leave recycling behind in the designated bins available.
If you have intentions to just half clean or not clean we could have this done for a minimum fee of $120 - $180 depending on numbers or alternatively do not book this Bach. At times there has been lack of respect for the listing requirements / us and next quests so we can’t have this, principles.
If the Bach isn't cleaned properly you will be charged accordingly but again principles, ourselves or next guests do not want to turn up to an uncleaned Bach.
If any damages occur they will be charged accordingly, please be honest & notify us if any occurs, we will know.

Price is for 6 people, $20pp including gst for each person after that.
Minimum 2nights year round.
Minimum 3nights around long weekends, minimum 4nights at easter, Christmas & New Years

Please note this Bach is ‘old school’ not new or modern so expect it not to be perfect, fine for the majority, we expect all guests to leave the place in a tidy & cleaned state, again principles, respect the listing requirements / us, property, neighbours & next quests.

No party events. No Wifi.

Limited use driving vehicles & boats etc on lawn over winter months.

Full refund up to two weeks before the booking, 50% refund up to between one & two weeks before the booking, no refund within one week of booking.
As you could imagine this is a more remote place than the average general booking hence the firmer refund policy.

Tank / bore water - boil before drinking or bring own water, please conserve water.
Colville station / store & cafe approx 35-40mins drive.
No cats. Dogs to be tied up if likely to chase native birds etc.

Easy and friendly communication with host and easy check-in.We were four adults on a motorcycling/fishing break midweek, staying for two nights.The two seperate rooms have comfortable beds and kitchen has everything required to cook an evening meal.The covered outside area is handy during daytime hours.The main house could do with a second toilet.Beautiful location, far from the crowded suburbs of Auckland.

Great spot for a crew of fishermen for the weekend. Very basic, all that we needed. Easy parking and good lawn area for driving in with boats. Good fish filleting set up.
