About this property

Gorgeous, comfortable holiday house

A great place to relax and unwind for either a short or long stay. Is within an easy five minute walk to all local community clubs (golf club, boat club and combined sports club), general store, cafe and fish and chip shop. Local museum is open daily.
The harbour provides a great place to swim with good fishing for the kids at the wharf or if it's 'real fishing' you prefer, the charter boats leave from the local wharf too.
Renowned Te Puia Hot Springs are within 5 mins drive and are certainly worth a visit..
Absolutely NO DOGS allowed on the premises

Extras: Linen (Optional, NZ$15.00 per person); Please request at time if booking. NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave;

Cosy and Close
Our third time to visit, hopefully WIFI will be added to the property. The neighbours dog was bold, making its way throught the back door to pull out the garbage. He wasn't deterred when shooed away, the owner heard me and took control of the dog

Great back for a weekend getaway
We loved our stay in Kawhia. The bach is in a great location, within walking distance to the shops and cafes as well as the boat ramp. There is loads of off street parking with enough room for the boat. We had everything we needed and Patsy just a phone call away. Thank you!

Kawhia Fishing
A lovely Bach which suited our needs. Internet access would have been helpful as we spent a lot of our holiday indoors due to inclement weather. A pity we couldn't get out fishing due to the atrocious weather. Looking forward to our next holiday staying here.
