"Lovely setting, typical kiwi Bach, nothing fancy but has everything you need, very effective wood burner, fully equipped kitchen and a good hot shower combined with sea views "

"Very dog friendly. Our fox terror loved chasing the rabbits. Nice neighbours.Such a nice retreat, so quiet and relaxing"

"Loved loved it! Definitely want to come again."

"We had such a a lovely stay. Anna was a great host. When we got there we were even gifted with a crayfish. House was well stocked with everything we needed, even wetsuits. The fire was ready to light. The beds were comfy. There was lots of seafood to gather, only across the road. We just used the three rooms in the main house but maybe next time our mother in law could come and sleep in the self contained unit. Thanks for having us. We will hopefully be back again! Jenna "

"Clean, well equipped, rural location with a lovely walk up to ANZAC cross. Enjoyed the spa under the stars. Close proximity to fishing, swimming and walks at Castlepoint. "

"This was such a calming place to stay! Beautiful surroundings and Hans was great at giving us all the information we needed, while still respecting our privacy."

"Loved the place. Fire place was definetly a must for that crazy weather! Highly recommend. "

"Absolutely brilliant place with all the bits and pieces needed or not to have a relaxing stay, including bits and pieces in the pantry and fridge and freezer! (Thanks) we nearly finished the 1,000 piece Castlepoint Jigsaw maybe 1 more day would have seen it done, but walks and swims (and of course fish and chips from the local store) got in the way. Highly recommended unless your booking conflicts with our return to this beautiful, relaxing/exhilarating location!!!!"
