You couldn't ask for a better location in Raglan. Seriously. The view from the deck is Manu Bay (just as pictured). And in 10 minutes, you can walk down a well-maintained trail (located at the end of the street) to Ngarunui Beach, where there's super fun surf and a rental stand right on the beach. The accommodations are modest (as advertised) but perfect for anyone who just wants to experience Raglan. You're a quick drive to town, there's a parking stall right out front, there's even a hot plate and fridge. What more can you ask for?
