A Kiwi Classic - beautiful bach in Whangateau

Conveniently situated on the road heading from the Matakana township to Leigh, this classic kiwi bach is perfect for family holiday accommodation, overseas guest accommodation, special occasions, weekday retreats and weekend getaways for up to 12 people. The beach is just a few steps over the road. Your friends and family can also book the bach right next door listed as 'Great Spot by the estuary in Whangateau' which hosts 9 people.

Located just one hour north of Auckland City, the bach has three bedrooms, one bathroom, separate toilet, laundry, open plan living/kitchen/dining and some great outdoor living areas including a front porch that spills out onto the front lawn and a back yard with a large new deck that backs onto an estuary. The estuary flows under a small bridge through to Whangateau Harbour across the road which can be accessed by kayak (There is two kayaks and a double kayak available for use in the garage! Amongst other things including a paddleboard, life jackets, barbeque etc.)

Bedroom first bedroom has a queen size bed plus a single bed plus a spare mattresses which can go on the floor. The main bedroom has a queen bed. The third bedroom has double bed.
The sleep out can sleep 4 comfortably and has a new queen bed and a queen futon fold down couch bed.
