Set back from the road it is quiet with the exception of the native birdsong in the backyard trees. Without all the city light pollution the night stars are amazing & from the font deck & bedroom you can listen to the sound of the waves from stunning Cooks Beach which is just a short 4 minute walk away. At the back of the property there is a tidal stream & the back gate gives you access to a pathed walk around the residential lake area. Please be aware that both the stream & the lake are not fenced. If you prefer a more adventurous local walk our favourites include the walks to Lonely Bay & Shakespeare Cliff Lookout. Our Bach is also just minutes walk to local restaurants & convenience stores & within a 15 mins drive you can be at either Hot Water or Hahei Beaches & access to the famous Cathedral Cove Walkway. Alternatively for a spot of retail therapy or a trip to the movies the Ferry across to Whitianga is only a few minutes drive from Cooks Beach. Also within a short drive are local Tennis Courts, the Purangi Golf Course, the Mercury Bay Winery & the popular Eggsentric & Colenso Cafes. As the Bach relies on the supply of precious rain water we ask that you please bring your own linen & towels. If you are coming from overseas & this is an issue please let me know. If you are looking for a place to get away & enjoy nature & some screen free time then we believe our beloved Bach is the perfect choice. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet -

It’s in the perfect location, quiet but still a quick drive to the Whitianga Ferry or drive into the local town. There are so many delicious places to eat and great coffee spots not far away. Tania’s Bach was both easy to access and very clean and warm with a lovely new heat pump (perfect for our stay in winter). Tania’s place is well equipped with everything you need for the family or for a getaway with friends or a special someone. ![Bedroom 1](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/75cbf6a9-7720-41ba-9412-04ba29f53d1f-1751261220228.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Dining area with a lovely big table and new heat pump with bean bags and a bbq](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3b2693b8-4435-4de7-8031-5c5a62ad7617-1751261219617.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Ferry across to Whitianga ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2aad9479-d24c-4931-833d-b92ec3081c3f-1751261220250.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Bedroom 2](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3b6dd338-7112-43ee-b81e-21008eb97bd1-1751261219286.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Greer D.

The space allows for curling up with a good book while I can also imagine a whole family could easily enjoy eachother's company around the dinner table. The bedrooms are simple and I got a good night's sleep. Kitchen, bathrooms and everything else does the job nicely! With only a short walk to the gorgeous beach, it was perfect for early morning walks, afternoon strolls and evening sky watching. Nearby spots to visit were easily reached, making for excellent day trips to Whitianga, Cathedral cove, hot water beach - but Cook's Beach is so great that you can easily spend the days there. Staying at Tania's batch was a delightful holiday choice, I would recommend it to anyone! ##### Laura B.

We appreciated the great contact with host Tania, and her very kind offer of a late check out. Tania also gave us the option to change our dates due to the crazy weather, which she was not obliged to do, but we really appreciated the offer. The bach is cute and cosy and has everything you need for a great holiday. Really looking forward to coming back. ##### Christine B.

Very quiet location. Tania is a pleasure to deal with. The property is on tank water. I suspect the whole of Cooks Beach is. The water is clear and lovely to drink but water pressure means you have a dribble of a shower and difficulties getting the temperature right. Easily fixed with an upgrade to the pump system. We would choose this batch again. ##### Louise A. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Keegan S. 23 Jan 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Very tired/untidy but great location My family and I stayed for three nights and while we loved the location and setting we weren’t blown away by the property. There was dust and crumbs on the kitchen floor, food past it’s use by date in the fridge, half eaten packets of chips and crackers in the drawers and the bbqs were quite old and dirty. The place was generally quite run down with little maintenance being done on it by the looks. The shower was temperamental and we often ended up with a cold shower. There was no wifi even though it is listed as having wifi. I wouldn’t recommend this place when there are many other beautiful spots around cooks beach. ##### Keegan S.
