Nestled in the beautiful New Zealand bush a classic Kiwi bach.
Nestled in the beautiful New Zealand bush this intimate classic Kiwi bach is one of a kind. The surf is 3 minutes away, spend time relaxing, listen to the birdsong, long walks on the beach or soak in the outdoor bath gazing at the night sky.
Within walking distance you will find a craft shop and gallery, op shop, and museum. Just a short drive away you will find the local tavern, cafe, dairy and swimming pool (in the summer)
A great place to relax after walking the Old Ghost Road or many of the short walks in the area.
Granity is a great base to explore what northern Buller has to offer.
Sleep out is the third room at the bottom of the garden with a fold out bed, seating and beanbags.

We had a lovely stay in Granity. The house was lovely, clean and tidy. Had a bit of rain while there, so the covered outdoor areas where fantastic. Outdoor bath was great too.
we stayed for 4 days over Christmas 2023 - such a cute cosy little bach and great location to explore the surrounding area. nice and quiet and close to the beach, we will stay again! special thanks to the hosts for the Christmas decorations and treats!
We had the most restful stay in this cute retro bach. Everything we needed was provided. Adored the outdoor fire and bath. The covered outdoor eating area was perfect for rainy day dining. Extremely cosy indoors with fire. Even managed a wave from the train driver passing by!!!!!Highly recommend for a getaway.
Lovely quiet and peaceful. Was just right for a Valentine’s surprise. This place gives you a warm hug when you first walk in the door and when you leave. Comfortable bed with lovely sheeting, smart tv was great entertainment.The out door bath is wonderful for relaxing. We really enjoyed our stay and definitely will come back only a 2 hour drive from home on the wonderful coast road.
Great clean, lovely bach with everything you need. Nice outdoor dining area. Close access to beach. One suggestion would be to replace the queen mattress in main bedroom which is sunken in the middle and uncomfortable to sleep on. Ended up using the double bed in the spare room instead which was fine.
Inside stone kearns do abound
Outside native bush all around
Native birds serenade in the trees
Weka strolling where they please
Angry surf pounding on the beach
A sheltered veranda welcome retreat
An outdoor bath and BBQ
Silently await for you
A love of the “Coast” came from this
We'll be back for the bliss
But now the sun sinks into sea
Thank you for the memories.
Thank you for a wonderful stay in your beautiful wee beachside cottage. Couldn't ask for more, with birdsong, native life (including some large spiders!), waves crashing to shore, the odd passing coal train, friendly sheep and goat "neighbours"!
It was a lovely, peaceful autumn getaway.
We thoroughly enjoyed walking the beach in the mornings and got to see the natural beauty of the area.
Everything was clean and well thought out. The only thing I noticed was the queen mattress in the main bedroom was quite soft and had a roll together feel, which was a little uncomfortable.
We had two teenagers with us who slept in the sleepout and enjoyed their stay in "nature".
Thank you again for a memorable experience.
Great stay loved the place, had half rain half shine weather great covered outdoor areas for cooking/ living even in wet!Trains and road were super close but not a problem.
We had a great time staying in Granity. It's a lovely little cottage with a cosy fire, the roar of the sea, and not far down the road from some great attractions. I would go back in a heartbeat.
We had an amazing stay, the house is very homely and warm. The outdoor bath was incredible! Great communication with owners. We will definitely be back!! ♡♡
Pretty much as expected and we enjoyed our stay very much. Loved the proximity to the beach. Trains were more frequent than advised but they did not trouble us. The resident weka was a plus. Would recommend this property for a delightful whimsical West Coast stay.
