Private Bush Shrouded Seaside Hideaway

A great Couple's getaway. Hand in hand take a thirty minute walk along the sandy beach to The Point Cafe Bar and Restaurant including shop, enjoy a drink with the friendly locals and a must is the freshest Blue Cod and Chips from the Takeaway.
Feel like a short drive it’s worthwhile to drive 15 minutes to Nugget Point Light House and view the awesome scenery, a whole different world including Seal and Penguin Colonies.
With the Southern Scenic Route at your door step take a day trip through the Catlins area and experience the Wow factors of this unique area.
For those that just want to chill, on a cold wet windy day crank up the gas open fire, listen to the rain on the tin roof, roar of the sea, snuggle up on the sofa and watch a romantic movie or read that special book. Equally on the sunny day open up the French doors, listen to Birds and chill on the front deck with your poison of choice or better still rip off all those clothes and rest out on the very private back deck and soak up some Vitamin D and get a little bit of colour on those cheeks

Special conditions:
No extra guests.
Smoking is allowed but outside only.
Pets allowed with prior arrangement and would be suitable for maximum of 2 small to medium size Dogs.
On site Kennel available for larger dogs.

Our Hideaway Holiday
Although it was just one room the layout was so well thought out through that there was plenty of space available. It was well appointed and comfortable and spotless when we arrived. The location was first class in respect of access to facilities in Kaka Point and points of interest.

Ideal get-away retreat.
Just two nights in this really comfy cottage was not long enough. The place had everything we needed, compact but did not feel cramped. Lovely outside seating with just the sound of the ocean and the birds. We loved having our beloved dog with us too. Thank you Paul.

Outstanding Property in Outstanding Location
This property is obviously a labour of love for the owners and is absolutely outstanding in all aspects. Really well set up, spotlessly clean on our arrival, and had everything we needed. Really nice and cosy, with amazing views of Kaka Point and the beach, great decks and out door areas. Really beautiful spot, great for walks on the beach, a truly awesome part of our country. Hosts were great to deal with, and check in process was easy. Very highly recommended.

Cozy getaway for couples.
Compact but very comfy living space with large outdoor area with bbq. 20 mins stroll by the sea to the local pub with very good eatery. Good tramping to be had in the vicinity. Sea Lions on the beach. Nice Teo nights stay. Enjoyed this quirky spot.
