Tidy & functional
Functional, tidy, huge ant issue.Great I could take our dog but there was no secure outside area so when we went out she had to be shut inside. Got very hot inside. Fan did not work.Next to a very noisy main busy road. There is no hob or oven, bbq was poor. Cooking was an issue.

Basic and tidy but unfortunately noisey
We were looking forward to a much needed relaxing break after saving up for it all year, but unfortunately we weren't anticipating how noisey the road would be so unfortunately had to cut our holiday short due to this.

Cute place to stay
Little bach but nice and roomy. And very comfortable. All facilities required were there to make it homely. Close and easy walk to town and the beach. Although we were only there for a short time we felt like we had had a good restful break.

So handy for parkrun
Perfect location for parkrun; you can see the start/ finish from the bedroom! Was quite cold on a chilly Whangamatā night with just one small electric heater for the whole property but other than that it had everything you needed and was clean and tidy. We don’t need wifi so not an issue for us but be aware if you need to stay connected and don’t have data.
