Stay at the cutest old school bach. A little beachside community in Central Hawkes Bay. With no TV or Wifi (yes cell reception) the kids will love getting into all the board games, listening to all the native birds in the trees around the bach, endless time at the beach (3 min walk through private bushwalk) and a million swing rides. Guaranteed wholesome family time (and pet friendly). Boogy boards, surfboards and kayak also available (plus kids wetsuits). 40 mins from Havelock North. Tennis court also available.

3 bedrooms in the house (queen bed, double bed and single room with bunk beds and a pull-out trundler bed). There is also a bunk room (4 beds) off the garage with an extra toilet. Outside solar shower to enjoy after a cool dip, At low tide there is a walk to a waterfall and at high tide you can play in the nearby river. During winter two queen/ double rooms have electric blankets and there is a heater to heat the house.
