About the host

Hosted by Susan

Host profile image
This Bach was built by my husbands dad and his brother. They were both joiners in Napier. It took them 2 years to build it as they travelled from Napier in the weekends. Most of the furniture at the Bach was also made by them.

Why they chose this property

They Bach is very quant and peaceful. It is like a step back in time at a place which is very comfortable to be in. Easy short walk to the shops, marina and the lake.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful holiday spot, very relaxing and comfortable.
