Classic NZ Bach on the Waterfront - Whangarei Heads

Quiet relaxing spot with northerly aspect catching all the sun, nestled between majestic Mt Manaia and Mt Aubrey at McLeod Bay. Head off for any of the magnificent walks in the area, relax on the deck and watch the ever changing activity on the water, take the kayak out for a spot of fishing, or watch the incredible sunsets from the deck or lounge. Sleeps 6 adults. Large front bedroom has a newly installed ensuite, while the back 2 bedrooms share the main bathroom with a separate toilet. Inside has been freshly painted with a new kitchen. Has Sky TV.

Excellent accomodation. Very clean and comfortable.A new area for us to explore but surprised that the beaches were too rocky for swimming.A bit disappointed that there were problems with the Local Sewerage Pump across the road from Bach and the smell was nauseating at times.Host has been notified of this problem.
