We had a wonderful stay at the start of March. It’s a great location, and was a very comfy house with comfy beds. The beach is just over the stream so the access closest requires walking through the stream or else about a 5+min walk. Playground nearby and good fish n chips in Ahipara. The showers were not very modern but the kitchen was really modern and has good cookware. There was literally salt and pepper and tea bags and nothing else so will need to bring all cooking supplies. Amazing views from the deck and we could hear to sea pretty much the whole trip. Thanks for a great stay!
