About this property
South Bay | Classic Bach | Close to Marina - KK48126
- Step back in time at this cosy, classic Kiwi bach in the heart of South Bay. Pre-loved and full of family character, it feels like summer holidays from way back. Just a short stroll to the beach and marina. This place is perfect for relaxed getaways and salty swims.
This bach also offers a gas fire and electric heaters with an outdoor sink for cleaning fish after your day out on the water! Please note: a sleepout is available on request and can accommodate up to 4 guests - great for a bunch of kids!
