One minute walk to a gorgeous safe sandy beach or estuary, beach walkway one house over. The bach is right opposite the community tennis court with a children's play ground on the beach front. Wake up to the delightful sound of the native birds singing, Kereru do cheeky flybys. Take your boat out, dive for paua and crays, fish from the beach. Kitchen is fully equipped with everything you will need to rustle up those iconic beach dinners, plus a 3 Burner BBQ. Bask in the sun off either deck. Main bach sleeps 7, garage 5, sleepout 3. You will need to bring your own linen- sheets/sleeping bags, pillow cases, towels etc, duvets or blankets on all beds. Sleepout does not have power connected to it. 50 minutes from Hastings, 35 minutes to the local shops in Waipawa, 20 minutes to the Patangata Country pub. Wood provided for the joy of the fireplace in winter. Under kiwi bach tradition you are expected to clean the house and do the dishes before departure. We do not charge a host fee as our property is usually not inspected in between guests. A delightful place to relax and enjoy life. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Hob - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Shower ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 10 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas ### Things to do - Tennis ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/90000000/89650000/89645200/89645171/9f3b8ccc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Whare Aio Peaceful, tranquil setting nestled in Porangahau village...
