Must be ok with Dogs - our dog (a small spoodle) may occasionally wander down to the unit. He will sometimes bark at strangers but means no harm but we will try to keep him away for your stay. No parties or gatherings of any kind Wifi - as we are rural the wifi can be patchy and sometimes the signal can drop out. The signal comes from the main house so is weak in the unit. It can be accessed in the main lounge area at the front door and outside the unit but normally can not be accessed in the bedroom. If you rely on wifi please be aware of this. We are open to negotiate the stay of non shedding pets depending on circumstances. There will be an extra $35 fee added on to the cleaning fee due to using extra products/cleaning after a pet has been in the unit. However any pets are to be prior approved with us BEFORE booking.

Lovely rural accommodation, everything you need for a short or long stay, very spacious rooms. A secure, peaceful, and quiet location, a short drive from the beach or main centre. Handy to the Bell Block end of the costal walway. Enjoyed the evening visits from the chickens. Would recommend and look forward to staying again.

Google location worked well. Then it was very easy to get to where we wanted. Explore New Plymouth, bike the Coastal walkway and explore the region. Very peaceful, great for a recovery weekend. The patchy wifi and random mobile reception made a quick way to reduce technology! Always a bonus.

We loved this property - comfortable, spacious and in good location if you want to be close to Bell Block which was the case with us. The only reason we don't give it five stars was because there was no stores such as salt, pepper, sugar or oil etc there. And importantly no milk - when we arrived we wanted a cup of tea but had to immediately drive about 5 k to the nearest diary. I think given it is a long drive away from stores a few minimal supplies would be useful.

This is a little home away from home-bach. It has all the basic essentials. The McDonalds and The Warehouse are a 2-3 minute drive away depending on the morning traffic. The location of the bach was easy and central to the town. There are heaters to keep the bach warm and toasty throughout the night. This bach is suited for people who love a nice rural and quiet area to holiday. The owners live on the property and they can be reached via phone. If you are looking at cooking, you will need to bring all your kitchen basics to make your meals. The bed is super comfortable and there are layers of warm comforters for the chilly mornings. There isn't a washing machine and dryer to use, but there is a laundromat in Fitzroy for self service. When your outside on the left side of the garage-bach - you will see a clear view of Mt Taranaki.

Really good place to stay with our dogs. Plenty of room for them to roam around outside. Less then 10 minutes from New Plymouth city, beaches not far away & a good place to be based to explore Taranaki. The unit had everything that we required for our stay.

Great location and property

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Very peaceful sunny property with views of the mountain. Everything you would need to feel at home. Very secure for dogs or children. We had our dog with us and had no concerns with his safety. He was also welcomed with a dog chew ☺️ Although the house is on the same property with the owners. You never saw them or felt restricted in anyway. Quick and friendly communication as well. Definitely Recommended. We will be returning.

Great little getaway

Great little getaway

There was a nice welcoming note when we arrived, and a thoughtful gesture of a little toy box for our toddler. The unit was really nice, everything seemed new, it was wonderfully set up and super comfortable. We even had a friendly old cat to visit. It's in a gorgeous rural area, so not super handy to town for going back and forwards lots but a perfect spot to get away and relax. We appreciated all the tips on what to do in the area as well. Thanks for a great stay.
