Good value for money and in a great location facing directly onto the beach. We had a lovely 3 days at Hughs place and he even cooked us a dinner of fresh snapper the first night! It's a simple kiwi bach so isn't luxury accommodation but is clean and cosy with everything you need. Others should be aware that there aren't loads of food options in Ahipara (though it does have a fantastic fish and chip shop) and the kitchen is fairly basic, so plan accordingly!
