Old world beach bach by the seaside A beautiful family beach holiday crib right by the seashore. Lawns for cricket in the evenings; mud flats to explore at low tide; a wee beach or two to wander along; log fire for chilly autumn mornings and those long holiday evenings sitting round playing board games and cards together. We couldn’t have dreamed of anything better than what we had the privilege of enjoying here thank you to the hosts who share their slice of paradise

Amazing, affordable back for a family! Had a great relaxing stay the week before Easter with some lovely mild weather in the Bay. Bach was perfect for our family of 5 and was great being able to bring our fur baby too. Had everything we needed with a great layout. Beautiful view with morning coffee in bed! Lovely swimming a short walk down to the foreshore and great fishing for the kids off the jetty too - my daughter caught a good sized gurnard! Loved the pukeko family right outside. Overall a wonderful, peaceful stay - will be back soon!

3 night stay the property is in a lovely spot with a beautiful view and access to the water - this was its main appeal 😁 The property is fairly close to Picton so access to shopping is fine It is obviously a much loved family Bach, owned by the same family for many years. I wasn't expecting 5 star accomodation - but everything is very tired looking and could do with a spruce up.😢 Main problem for us was level of cleanliness. Guests are asked to clean when they leave, but people have different standards and for me it needed a good spring clean. It would be better to charge more and have a proper cleaner 😊

Classic kiwi bach It had great views and it was a well set up classic kiwi bach. The annex however was not suitable for either of our young children to sleep in which was a surprise when we arrived. The annex was further away from the house than expected and very dusty and dirty. The previous occupants had also not cleaned after their stay which meant we had to clean the kitchen and floors on arrival. Overall it was a nice stay in a great location.
