The bach is really lovely, arty and eclectic yet homely as well. It is rustic yet, as the description says, ALL the essentials worked excellently (good wifi, hot water, well equipped kitchen) and the bach has a really lovely charm about it. Its location is amazing, the incredible view is just as it looks in the photos. You feel a world away yet you are still only walking distance or a short drive to Raglan centre. It is a perfect base from which to explore. We went for a long weekend with our toddler and baby and dog, it worked well for us. We tried Raglan Fish (takeaway with chips and also fresh snapper fillets which we cooked ourselves), Raglan Roast coffee and the excellent sourdough bread shop. We visited local beaches like Ngaranui and watched the surfers at Manu Bay. We also visited the Monster art gallery which had great ceramics.
