Pātiki cottage - Pakawau

This historical and cozy bach has a rural outlook and is just a short stroll to the beach. A character bach that started life as a Mill worker’s hut, it has since been a holiday park cabin and home. It is now enjoyed as a holiday house, and is well equipped for your stay. This is the place to stay if you want a true kiwi bach experience and don’t expect perfection.

The bach is a perfect location to get to the best parts of Golden Bay: Wharariki, Farewell Spit, Whanganui Inlet & Kaihoka lakes. There are many great walks and beaches nearby, good swimming spots at Pakawau Beach, along with abundant birdlife. The bach is also in the heart of Kingfish country - an incredible flats fishing experience and an international fly fishing destination.

Sunny & warm the bach is perfect for visits all year round. There is a new log burner with plenty of wood making it very cosy in winter. There is lots of outdoor furniture, board games, books, TV and DVD player, BBQ, and the kitchen is very well equipped. We are chipping away to make improvements all the time.

Pets are welcome and encouraged! The section is fully fenced. We just ask that you clean up after them & not let them on the furniture.

Currently the bach can sleep 4-5 people comfortably (1 x Queen bed, 1 x double bed/with single bunk on top).

Please bring your own linen & towels. (Pillows, Duvet & cover provided)

We ask guests to leave the back as they found it- clean & tidy.
