This is a pretty luxurious bach in an amazing location. Parapara is a really special place - an amazing beach that is used mostly by the (small) local community (meaning it was pretty empty when we were there). We swam and kayaked about 50% of the time. Milnthorpe park reserve is 5 mins up the road - which has some great and cool (during hot weather) walks through the forest to another amazing beach; which the dog can come on. Halfway up golden bay - 15 mins to Tākaka, 30 mins to farewell spit. Massive fireplace out the back was a great added bonus that we could enjoy in the cool evening. A weka was strolling about on the lawn on our last day. Easily in our top 4 locations and baches. Highly recommended.
