About this property

Private Bush Shrouded Seaside Hideaway

A great Couple's getaway. Hand in hand take a thirty minute walk along the sandy beach to The Point Cafe Bar and Restaurant including shop, enjoy a drink with the friendly locals and a must is the freshest Blue Cod and Chips from the Takeaway.
Feel like a short drive it’s worthwhile to drive 15 minutes to Nugget Point Light House and view the awesome scenery, a whole different world including Seal and Penguin Colonies.
With the Southern Scenic Route at your door step take a day trip through the Catlins area and experience the Wow factors of this unique area.
For those that just want to chill, on a cold wet windy day crank up the gas open fire, listen to the rain on the tin roof, roar of the sea, snuggle up on the sofa and watch a romantic movie or read that special book. Equally on the sunny day open up the French doors, listen to Birds and chill on the front deck with your poison of choice or better still rip off all those clothes and rest out on the very private back deck and soak up some Vitamin D and get a little bit of colour on those cheeks

Hidden Gem
As you pull up the crib is hidden from view by well tended mature plants and what a delight you’ll get as you emerge from the path. The well maintained, comfortable and well laid out accomodation surpasses expectations, we loved our 2 night stay. The outside areas were also better than expected and we enjoyed both meals and relaxation in the spaces, which also enjoyed awesome views of the sweeping beach to Kaka Point village, a lovely 15minute walk away along the beach. A lovely 10minute drive along the coast, in the opposite direction, brings you to the spectacular Nugget point.We highly recommend this crib to others.

Relaxing time away in nature and comfort.
A lovely little space with everything you need. So grateful we were able to bring our fur baby too, thank you! Neighbours were closer than expected and noisy with powertools etc so that took away from some of the quiet hideaway aspect, but otherwise great, thank you.

Our Hideaway Holiday
Although it was just one room the layout was so well thought out through that there was plenty of space available. It was well appointed and comfortable and spotless when we arrived. The location was first class in respect of access to facilities in Kaka Point and points of interest.

Great little place for a weekend away
Great little studio with a deck out front with view over the beach and big covered outdoor area at the back. Has everything you need. BBQ out back for dinner. 2 min walk to the beach. Have stayed a couple of times and will definitely be back as we love that we can bring our dog too. Would highly recommend

Ideal get-away retreat.
Just two nights in this really comfy cottage was not long enough. The place had everything we needed, compact but did not feel cramped. Lovely outside seating with just the sound of the ocean and the birds. We loved having our beloved dog with us too. Thank you Paul.

Outstanding Property in Outstanding Location
This property is obviously a labour of love for the owners and is absolutely outstanding in all aspects. Really well set up, spotlessly clean on our arrival, and had everything we needed. Really nice and cosy, with amazing views of Kaka Point and the beach, great decks and out door areas. Really beautiful spot, great for walks on the beach, a truly awesome part of our country. Hosts were great to deal with, and check in process was easy. Very highly recommended.

A magical little place - so private and comfortable, and with lovely views over the bay. Everything is so well organised, with many careful touches. Fierce storm while we were there, but we were still happy. Thank you
