This is the quintessential Kiwi bach, ideal for couples or small families looking for an authentic and relaxing holiday experience. With its prime location and simple yet charming layout, this cottage offers all the conveniences for a hassle-free vacation while still capturing the essence of the Kiwi bach lifestyle.
Originally two army cottages, it was extended by renowned New Zealand architect John Scott in the 1970s giving it a distinctly Kiwi flavour. Scott is widely regarded for letting the materials speak for themselves and here the Matai weatherboards, floorboards and exposed ceilings speak loudly of an era when the New Zealand bach was a simple and functional abode, exquisitely proportioned for the quintessential summer holiday.
The home has 2 bedrooms offering various bedding configurations and 1.5 bathrooms.
• Bedroom 1: 1 California King Bed
• Bedroom 2: 1 King Bed
