A lovely spot for connecting and relaxing

We had a wonderful stay. Modern kitchen and bathrooms, comfortable beds and a nice flat section for playing on outside next to the deck. Friendly hosts and great communication. We would return :)

Great kiwi getaway

We loved the location, space and well equipped kitchen. It was reasonably clean and tidy. We were a little disappointed at how long the lawns were, and the lack of/falling apart lounge curtains. We also found the bbq to be in need of a clean, but given it wasn't bbq season we figured it hadn't had its annual spruce up. We felt it was a little overpriced given you have to supply your own linen and clean on exit (which I brought my own cleaning equipment so didnt look to see what was on offer). Other than that we enjoyed our stay. It has a great view, lovely space on the deck and yard for kids to play. We thoroughly enjoyed it and were fortunate to have great weather.

Dog friendly... but...

Nicely presented house. Most of the amenties that you could want in a holiday bach. Some improvements would move this from OK to Excellent. Eg. A fenced area for the dogs, Blinds on ALL windows - felt exposed at night in the living area, Check on cleaning - there was mould in the fridge drawers and the dishwasher stunk. The pillows and duvets were stained and past their use-by date. A washing machine and a clothesline would be handy for longer stays. Beds were comfy. Great selection of games for evening entertainment. Loved the retro looking Espresso maker.Price of stay was higher than we expected compared to similar properties we have stayed in that provided full cleaning service and rubbish removal.

Riversdale Peace and Quiet

Our family of five had a wonderful stay in this clean, modern, and well equipped house. It is warm, very quiet, and close enough for walk to the shop and beach. The view out the back makes you think you are on a farm. Thank you for our stay. Very much appreciated.

Absolutely awesome.

Wife and I stayed for our 1 year wedding anniversary, and what a great place to tune out from everyday life. We played some board games, cooked BBQ during sunset on a balmy evening and couldn't believe our eyes at the view of the ocean, Would highly recommend, what a great spot, we now want a section up there! =)

Lovely clean bach

We had a lovely stay here, the bach was immaculate when we arrived. I think you need to state really clearly that you need to do a big clean at the end as most baches now come with a cleaning fee (we would have paid anything for this!) The kids loved the big grassy area to play cricket on!
