Sheltered, quiet section with ample room for kids and dogs to run around. Off the kitchen is a sheltered launday/porch area for your pooch to snuggle up at night. An easy 10-minute walk to a large kids playground and skate park, cafe/restaurant. Not much further take a walk/bike ride up the stunning Estuary to enjoy the view and then munch down some good old kiwi fish n chips or pick up some supplies from the local four-square store.

Enjoy the evening by the fire, watching telly or with a game of darts or pool in the garage.

Perfect spot for people with a pooch
The bach was as described and had everything we needed for our stay. Being allowed to bring our pet, a fully fenced section and quick access to walking tracks under the pines made it a very good dog friendly destination.

The house suited us perfectly. It was also ideal for our 2 little dogs who loved getting out into the woods with us. We would (hopefully will) be back at some point in the future.

Great holiday for kids
Lovely spot for a wee family holiday. Easy bike ride to the playground and bike park which our 3 year old loved. Lots of space inside and everything we needed. Quite warm when it reached 28 degrees but we used the fans.

Lovely. Just lovely.
Right by a peaceful forest & 5 mins walk from the beach. Fruit trees in the fenced garden. We stayed in winter/spring and had a roaring fire and a very relaxing stay. Lovely place to get away for a few days and recharge.

About the host

Hosted by Laura

Host profile image
Hi, We are a family of four from Wellington. We like to get away and enjoy what Foxton Beach has to offer; and like to be able to share it with others too.

We have dogs and understand that they are part of the family, hence offering a dog friendly holiday option for the well trained pooch.

Our property is fully fenced and is a little sun trap. If it happens to be a windy day down at the beach you can be sure of some calm weather to enjoy regardless at our bach.
