Classic Kiwi Bach - unplug from the world and relax.

Welcome to our cozy and nostalgic lakeside bach – the perfect spot for a relaxing family escape. This charming retreat features 2 comfortable bedrooms and a rustic sleepout with two sets of bunks, offering a fun throwback to simpler times (please note: the sleepout has no power – perfect for unplugged adventures and storytelling by flashlight!).

Just steps from the lake and with small water views from the house, you'll enjoy peaceful mornings and easy access to all your favorite water activities. The large yard is ideal for backyard cricket, frisbee, or simply soaking up the sun while the kids run free.

Whether you're here for a weekend getaway or a longer stay, this cute and comfy bach has everything you need to unwind, reconnect, and make lasting memories.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchenette and space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, an electric kettle, and an ironing board.
