Brilliant stay here with 6 adults and infant, and 2 big dogs. Comms with the manager was brilliant. This is the kind of place that has everything classic kiwi bach - perfect if you’re after comfort and ease over modern and flashy. Perfect spot for our dogs, and our crawling baby was always safe. The place could do with a big spring clean, general cleanliness was great though. Would definitely book again. The next door neighbour needs bigger problems in her life, as long as you stay well away from the boundary of her lawn and take photos that do not include her property she should keep to herself, peeping behind the blind.
