A great spot to un wind having a wine on the deck in the fabulous east coast sun.

Comfortable and quiet
Very comfortable bach - obviously a fisherman's hideaway (it did have a slight fishy smell when we arrived) but nothing we couldn't sort out. Lovely and quiet, comfy and warm. Thank you!

Te kaha stay
Awesome weekend stay. So cosy, spacious and had everything we needed. Wayne was amazing with communication with us and this was important as we travelled over from Australia for our stay. Location is prime. So central to everything. Will definitely look at booking again when we're back home in New Zealand

The Bach @ TK
We booked for 3 nights although it was wet and sodden for most of our stay. The Bach is well insulated and was warm and cosy so we didnt venture out far instead staying put and having a few whānau drop in for a cuppa. The Bach has a great layout with a spacious open living area and a kitchen where one can cook and talk to the whānau at the same time. We had our grandaughter with us and the main room accommodated a porter cot while my wife and I slept upstairs, shes tall but still could fit on the bed and they were comfy. Having a shed attached we were able to dump all our wet boots and gear straight into the shed with lots of space for our luggage as well. The external washouse was great we managed to get our baby gears washed and on the line and dried within a few hours so appreciated that. The area is quiet we did enjoy the local dogs visiting us and the neighbours smiled at us however, respected our privacy. We loved the Bach and highly recommend the stay to whomever are considering travel to the area. Kia ora.
