Blissful seaside batch

From the moment we arrived at Mark’s place we felt extremely relaxed and the views of the beach from the balcony are just stunning. We enjoyed early morning walks and sitting in bed with a coffee looking at the view. Our dog absolutely loved it too and was exhausted after all the walks. This place is a gem!

Hidden gem

We came up for son’s wedding and booked this accomodation online. What a pleasant surprise… Amazing location away from the everyday hustle with views to die for. Went to bed with the sound of waves crashing. Will sure be to call next time we are up Dunedin way and in need of accomodation

Wonderful get away

We had 3 days away wish that we’d booked a few more nights. The views are spectacular the scenery is ever changing. A great place to chill the balcony is a sun trap we sat out there with a book enjoying the sun. We were fortunate that we were able to bring our dog with us ,the beach was doggie paradise for him We highly recommend this place close to Dunedin along with many other places to explore. We will certainly be back An added bonus was waking up to hearing the waves and the birds singing.

Lovely house with great beach and sea views

This was my favourite place in our whirlwind tour of NZ. Lovely house with character, choice of decks to have breakfast on, gazing at beautiful views. My ensuite bedroom was gorgeous. I really felt at home here. Just wish we had been able to stay longer. I will definitely return. Love the Warrington Beach area.

We’ve stayed at Mark’s place before and every time we visit, we don’t want to leave. The views are stunning, the beach is quiet and amazing for a long walk, our dog was in his element! Also very close to Dunedin city with all its amenities such as supermarkets, shopping and culture. This place is a wee gem.
