A quiet haven from the crazy busyness of Raglan township in the summer! Kids loved the kayaks and swimming at high tide. The downstairs lounge was also a very handy chill out zone for the kids. Town is a short drive away, we attempted a walk but with kids there was a lot of whining! It would be an easy walk for adults. Also just a short drive to the surf breaks. One thing to take note of is that there is no access to a washing machine, which I over looked on booking. Not a problem if you are at the start of a holiday but we were coming from another holiday destination and in need of a washing machine. Overall a great place to stay in Raglan.
