    “We found this a comfortable little bach.”

    The shower must have been fixed since the review about it not draining because we had no problems with it. The layout of the house is quirky, and the view is stunning, especially as the Pohutakawa was flowering. Close enough to Havelock for getting groceries, but far enough away that you can't see it. The two kayaks and the paddleboard were in good condition, and at high tide you step straight from the property into the water. Would not recommend this house for under fives as the section is ...

    The shower must have been fixed since the review about it not draining because we had no problems with it. The layout of the house is quirky, and the view is stunning, especially as the Pohutakawa was flowering. Close enough to Havelock for getting groceries, but far enough away that you can't see it. The two kayaks and the paddleboard were in good condition, and at high tide you step straight from the property into the water. Would not recommend this house for under fives as the section is steep and the deck is not fenced sufficiently, but my teens had an awesome time. Thank you so much! Only one little improvement to suggest - some new clothes pegs would be good as most of them had gone rusty.
