This is a really wonderful bach in a gorgeous convenient location. We had a three-generation family christmas here, with the beautiful ocean views surrounded by all the greenery you could ask for. The kids loved the trampoline and the swing; the adults loved the privacy and the peace and quiet. The house has everything you need - hurruh for the dishwasher and the washer and dryer! There is a freezer and extra fridge in the laundry, and a microwave, coffee maker etc. The beds are comfy and plentiful, the water pressure excellent, the towels hotel quality. Louise provided a christmas tree and a trifle bowl, and there was a huge stock pot to boil the plum pud. We played a lot of cards around that lovely dining table. Really, everything you need or want in a bach, at a very decent price. The only thing missing was an instruction book (the power went out, and a fuse tripped in the laundry which stopped the water pump, and working out what to do was tricky, plus we were not sure what to do with all our rubbish) and toilet paper on arrival (there is a big supermarket in Thames so we solved that problem the next day). The Waiomu cafe just down the road serves excellent coffee and has very friendly staff. It really was a great holiday and I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
