Just what we needed

We had a lovely and relaxing stay. The place was perfect for our 3 generation family holiday, particularly with a toddler. It was great having a contained backyard with low stress of him making a dash for water or roads. Great outdoor space which was really useable with the patchy weather we experienced. Would recommend and stay again in the future.

A perfect place to stay for the kids - indoor and outdoor games and DVDs etc. Really close to the local playground and skatepark (which is awesome by the way), and easy access to the beach. Also some other kids staying in the street, so my kids had someone else to play with besides me! Comfortable, tidy and well equipped. Would definitely recommend.

Nice quiet cul-de-sac.

Nice quiet cul-de-sac. Lots of room for kids to play outside (great drive for scootering or rollerblades). Loads of toys for rainy days (which we experienced, thank god for the games). A well set up house, clean and tidy and we found the beds very comfortable. Recommend the surf beach (5 min drive) for swimming, its very beautiful. The kids enjoyed the estuary too. Thanks for a lovely stay

Lovely spot & the outdoor area is a treat as caters for all types, groups, families, couples.

Lovely spot & the outdoor area is a treat as caters for all types, groups, families, couples. very quiet so for a romantic get away it was fabulous. unfortunately the king bed was so uncomfortably hard our backs were very sore for days, Russell apologized for our discomfort and I'm sure he'll remedy this in the near future. let us know when you do Russell as we'd go back to stay in that tranquility.

The property was exactly what we needed, especially having a toddler with us. Perfect for the kids with a large garden with a sandpit. Plenty of games inside and the under cover deck is perfect for sitting out, even when its chucking it down with rain. Plenty of space inside for the family. We had an amazing, relaxing weekend. Location great, being close to the beach, the town and even a close drive to Waipu and Langs Beach. I recommend using Russels Bach and I look forward staying again
