The bach is in a magic location, with spectacular views of Mt Taranaki and the Tasman Sea on its doorstep.
Even on a cold early spring day this is a great place to be. The woodburner warmed us up after a hike on the mountain and kept us cosy through the night.
The kitchen has all the pots, pans and cooking utensils you might need to whip up any sort of breakfast, lunch or dinner.
And while it wasn't a major draw, having Sky was pretty good when the weather ruled out spending much time outdoors.
New Plymouth, Okato and Opunake are all an easy drive away if you need supplies or want a meal out.
Bryan and Kaye also keep the place immaculately clean. If I hadn't known better, I'd have thought the place had never been used before.
We will almost definitely be back.
