Vintage with modern touches by the sea

We are just two houses away from the walkway down to the beach. Our bach is a lovely 1920s cottage with French doors, large deck and 3 bedrooms. Separate lounge, combined kitchen/dining with french doors onto the deck. We have just undergone a significant renovation and updated the kitchen (including a dishwasher), modernised the bathroom, as well as new flooring in kitchen, dining, laundry and bathrooms and a full repaint throughout. We have big comfy modern sofas to sink into and new beds, and enough vintage bits to keep it all cute and eclectic. We also have a collection of NZ art on display. Arrive, park your car and walk everywhere...we are a minute from the village shops, movies, library, banks, cafe's and a short walk to the beach and playgrounds.

We are kid friendly and have a good selection of toys, books and dvds. There are two playgrounds nearby as well as a huge grass reserve with trees and also a public paddling pool by the beach which is very popular with all kids. We are fully fenced. Brand new gas fire and infinity hot water keeps everyone toasty and comfortable....



Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$60.00 per stay); Linen (Required, NZ$10.00 per person);
