We have just spent 3 nights at Tash's bach in Oakura, and it was fabulous. The house was immaculate, beautiful setting overlooking farms and then down to the see, and native birds singing in the trees. Really magical - and the night we arrived we were greeted with a double rainbow. Say no more. The house itself has a great aesthetic and yet super comfortable as well. The kitchen had everything (and then some) that we needed for our stay, and the extra goodies in the fridge and on the counter were appreciated. Oakura was a great place to be based for a few days in Taranaki - handy to New Plymouth, Mt. Taranaki and the surf highway. A couple of good restaurants right in Oakura and an awesome food scene in New Plymouth. We ended up cooking a lot at the house because it was so hard to leave the views. Overall a definite 5 star AirBNB experience - thanks so much, Tash!
