About this property

On the Beach at Castlepoint

  • Escape the everyday and soak up spectacular, uninterrupted views stretching from the lighthouse across the Mataikona Bay. This spacious and charming oceanfront cottage is perfectly positioned to help you unwind, whether you’re seeking adventure or simply a peaceful place to relax and take in the scenery.

    Located right at the entrance to Delivery Cove (the walking track to Castlerock), the property offers unbeatable access to everything this iconic area has to offer. Enjoy an easy walk to the Castlepoint lighthouse, Delivery Cove Track, and the reef, while the Castlepoint shop is a short walk down the road. The beach is on the doorstep with direct access.

    Only two hours from Wellington, Castlepoint is a breathtaking year-round destination—ideal for summer beach holidays or cosy winter escapes surrounded by dramatic coastal scenery.

    Special Conditions:
    Pets are welcome with prior approval. Well-behaved dogs are allowed; owners are kindly asked to clean up after them.

    Please Note:
    In keeping with Kiwi bach tradition, guests are expected to leave the house tidy and dishes done before departure, and to bring their own linen (towels, sheets, and tea towels).

The location was amazing! Beach front with a very short walk to anywhere you would want to go in Castlepoint. We walked everywhere. Very cool classic kiwi bach. Thank you for having us!
