Kiwi Bach with Panoramic Sea and Harbour View

Enjoy the fantastic Sea, Harbour and Sandspit views of Magical Mangawhai Heads including including Little Barrier, Great Barrier, the Mokohinau Islands and Leigh Peninsula.
Step back in time and enjoy the 70's bach which had a large new deck built in 2011. It is located 10mins walk from the Surf beach and Picnic Bay and 4 mins walk to the camping ground. It is under 5 mins drive to the shops, café and golf course. The family bach is generally more suitable for children who are over 5 years old because the toilet, bathroom and one bedroom are located down the uncovered external stairs. (We suggest holding onto the handrail especially when the steps are wet).

The bach is designed for a quiet, peaceful and relaxing break.

Special conditions:
Please bring your own linen (sheets, pillowcases and towels)

Some linen is available if necessary, but guests are expected to wash and dry it before departure, however if you do require linen, and for us to wash it for you, this could be arranged but you will need to ask when placing your booking, and there will be an extra charge for this.

There is no WI-FI, however you can use your own data when wanting to connect to the Internet.

Due to the nature of the drive and contour of the land our place is not suitable for a boat on a trailer.

NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave and bring your own linen (towels/sheets/pillowcases).
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Conveniences include a microwave and an electric kettle.
This smoke-free vacation home features books, games, and snorkeling nearby. Recreational activities include surfing/body boarding nearby, hiking/biking trails nearby, and kayaking nearby.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

A Wonderful old style Kiwi Bach
If you want a trip down memory lane and you used to go to a family style bach in the 60s or 70s then this is the place for you. Not only has this place got original aspects of a bygone era it has one incredible ocean view out to the outer Hauraki Gulf. Highlrecommend

This is the second time we have stayed here and enjoyed it thoroughly! Such a great location, great views, close to the beach & very accommodating hosts. When it came time to leave, the kids asked the same question as they did last time… when can we come back!?

We spent 2 nights in Mangawhai playing a golf tournament - the bach was a good spot to come to at the end of the done. Had everything we needed to relax with great views & unwind.

Quaint bach
This is a lovely Bach with great views and location. We didn’t need to use the downstairs bedroom, but it looked like some updated furnishings would lighten and freshen up this room. We really enjoyed our stay at this Bach.

Classic retro kiwi bach with great view
The bach is older, and basic, but is exactly what we were after. We spent a lot of time on the deck enjoying the view and hanging out with friends. Recommend new mattresses in the bunk room though - that was our main feedback.
