The Yellow Bach on Campbells Beach; kayaks wifi Sky Sport Netflix sleeps 4

Welcome to the Yellow Bach!

Four people can enjoy a quiet sandy, safe and tidal beach just 80 metres across the grass. Front row position. Lovely sea and summer sunset views from the dining table. Seaside children's playground is a one minute walk away
There are some really nice and safe kayak paddles within the bay, up two mangrove creeks as well as around the coast.

A little under an hour north of Auckland, Campbells makes for a great escape place.
By car, Matakana is 9 minutes, Tawharanui Regional Park and Sandspit both 15 minutes and Warkworth supermarket 20 minutes.

Campbells Beach is a hotspot for birdlife. Listen to the kaka, bellbirds and tuis in the day time, kookaburras (true) at dawn and dusk and an owl at night.

Things to do at the bach
Kids love the seaside play ground and safe swimming beach
HD smart TV with MySky, fast wifi, Netflix

PADDLE through mangroves at Campbells Beach, across to Baddley's Beach and up their creek, and paddle out to enjoy the sunset on the water
WALK at low tide straight to gather cockles, left around the rocks to the next (no name) beach, right past Baddely's Beach to Buckleton Beach and even further. You can walk for hours.

Affordable convenient bach!

Great stay overall, location was good. We went to the Matakana market and Tāwharanui Regional Park, both within 20min of the bach. Only thing to be aware of is there are no tea towels, toilet paper, shower needs, etc. so have to prepare a little bit more to bring all you need for your stay. Otherwise, great stay and would stay again!

A little bit ofsun in the middle of winter

We enjoyed being waterfront even though it was winter. We had amazing weather though so we enjoyed the deck at the back with all the different birds and views of the trees up the hill. The house was warm so didnt really have to use the heat pump much or the electric blankets on the beds. Would love to be be back to enjoy another break.

Modern facility’s. Comfortable beds. Still felt like a family bach even though it had the comfort of being in a home away from home. The playground across the road is such a great bonus for the kids. Great location. Loads of friendly native birds. Was cosy for a winter stay,

Great. But.

The location sells it: quiet shady beach 50M away. Enjoyed sitting out on deck. Great tv, internet, coffee maker, stove, air conditioning. We knew to take towels & sheets; other bedding is old, stained. BBQ in photo isn’t there, only one with an old cylinder that cant be filled or swapped. No paper or cleaning products, unless left by previous guests. For a couple of days, the location compensates for the shortcomings. Nearest shopping is Matakana.
