Sleeps 7-10 across the house and cabin. Cabin built 2025. The cabin is included for bookings of 8+ guests. For bookings under 8, use of the cabin will incur an extra cleaning fee. ☀️ TLDR 🏡 Clean, comfy 3-bed older style 70s bach ❄️ Air con for hot days and sticky nights 🚿 Strong shower with that “wash the day away” feel 📶 Free WiFi 🍿 Free Netflix 🛏️ Sleeps 7 in the house and 3 in the cabin 👶 Fully fenced section for kids 🅿️ Plenty of parking on site 🌴 Ideal for mahi, tangi, time outs or quiet escapes 🏠 True bach living with cosy, restful rooms 🐴 A Little About Us We are a busy equestrian family and often away most weekends from November to Easter for comps. Because we cannot always manage same day changeovers while out of town, some weekends have a 2-night minimum. If you need a 1-night stay, send us a message and we will try our best to help. 🏠 The Space A classic coasty bach that is cosy, simple and compact. The house sleeps 7 and the cabin adds room for 3 more. While there are enough beds for 10, the bach itself is smaller, so expect close-quarter living. It stays cool in summer, feels relaxed and has everything you need for an easy, comfortable stay. Great for workers, whānau gatherings, tangi downtime or anyone needing a gentle coasty reset. Cosy, peaceful rooms in a older style home to help you rest and reset. Sleeps 7-10 across the house and cabin. Cabin built 2025. The cabin is included for bookings of 8+ guests. For bookings under 8, use of the cabin will incur an extra cleaning fee. 🛋️ Lounge Big couch, two La-Z-Boys, smart TV, free Netflix, fireplace and air con. Cool when it is hot, warm when it is not. 🍳 Kitchen Fridge/freezer, 5-burner gas hob and electric oven, microwave, toaster, kettle, air fryer, rice cooker, slow cooker, electric frypan, Nutribullet, egg beater and all the basics like pots, pans, trays and platters. Make a feed or bake something comforting. Your call. 🍽️ Dining Table and 4 chairs for dinner, cards or yarns. 🛁 Bathroom / Laundry The shower is in the laundry (or the laundry is in the shower, depending on how you look at it). Strong water pressure for that “reset yourself” moment. Toilet, vanity, body wash, shampoo and conditioner supplied. Washing machine, dryer and outdoor clothesline for sun-dried freshness. 🛏️ Bedrooms Room 1 has two king singles with a single trundler, dresser and wardrobe. Room 2 has a queen bed, desk and chair, wardrobe and dresser. Room 3 has a double bed with a wardrobe and dresser. The cabin has a double bed, a king single and a dresser. It is warm and bright with insulation and double glazing. Rooms are compact but comfortable. Linen, towels and essentials are provided, with warm blankets on the beds for cooler nights. Extra pillows and blankets are in the wardrobes if you need something a bit more cosy during your stay. 🚪 Guest Access Guests have full access to the house, section, and outdoor areas. It’s all yours to enjoy with no shared spaces. Self check-in is easy with a lockbox by the door. The code will be sent to you automatically. There’s plenty of parking on the property or on the front lawn, including room for a horse float, horse truck, trailer, log truck, or work vehicle if needed. 🌺 This is a classic coasty bach, cosy and simple, with compact bedrooms that keep everything close and easy. It is an older style home. Built in the 70s and quite retro. Some parts creak. We're working on slowly renovating the home. Please be kind. 🔊 The water pressure pump is outside the bathroom near Bedroom Three. It may turn on now and then, a small part of the bach’s rhythm that light sleepers might notice. 🌡️ The cabin is brand new, bright and tidy, with insulation and double glazing. It can warm up at night, so opening the windows helps keep it comfortable. 🧳 The house is compact, so packing light or using shared spaces for bags keeps things feeling breezy. 🐓 Fresh air, open skies and the occasional rooster, moo or neigh add to the coast’s relaxed charm. 🏡 The house is 70s retro with a few quirks, but it is clean, comfy and thoughtfully set up for an easy stay. 🕯️ Power cuts are rare but possible on the coast. Candles are in the pantry if you ever need them. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Service animals only (pets not allowed) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location ### Things to do - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Hunting nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is no carbon monoxide detector on the property but there are gas appliances; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 100 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/38000000/38000000/37994300/37994247/d109b67a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Macrocapa Heights farm Tokomaru Bay - Kitchen - Washer - Pet friendly - Free WiFi 9.2 Wonderful 121 reviews CA $109 CA $151 total includes taxes & fees Jan 26 - Jan 27 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-26&endDate=2026-01-27&selected=37994247&PinnedHotelID=37994247&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/115000000/114590000/114581600/114581561/a2d4d81f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Esplanade Townhouse Kaiti - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 10 Exceptional 3 reviews CA $181 CA $316 total includes taxes & fees Jan 26 - Jan 27 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-26&endDate=2026-01-27&selected=114581561&PinnedHotelID=114581561&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Flat-screen TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99360000/99356800/99356775/a9f6dad8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 208 Lake Road Waituhi - Kitchen - Parking included - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 9.4 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-04&endDate=2026-02-05&selected=99356775&PinnedHotelID=99356775&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/117000000/116430000/116429600/116429521/ecb921c8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Mahia Bliss - Surf & Serenity Holiday Home Mahia - Kitchen - Washer - Air conditioning - Outdoor Space [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-04&endDate=2026-02-05&selected=116429521&PinnedHotelID=116429521&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/38000000/38000000/37991400/37991302/845cc158.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Wainui Absolute Beachfront Studio Unit Wainui - Pool - Kitchen - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 130 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-04&endDate=2026-02-05&selected=37991302&PinnedHotelID=37991302&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99780000/99779400/99779389/ab131806.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Iconic Wainui Beach a 100m stroll.
