This bach is rustic - down to the delightful mismatched glasses obviously collected over the generations of family who have used it - which is part of its charm.

(Jan.2023) This awesome 1970s holiday home is worth its weight in gold! Our extended family has stayed here several times before and we always have a great time! The weather was a bit windy & the coastline of the fabulous beach had been gobbled up by the recent cyclone, but we walked, swam, strummed guitars & sang, & had lots of fun. All our family loves staying at this holiday home. The owner (Rowan) is very nice too. The house is well-stocked with everything you could want for your holiday. Pauaunui is such a unique place to have a holiday with the extended family. (We were 3 generations.) It's not very often we can all get together like this - and it's just magical when we do. Thankyou Rowan, for offering your lovely beach house as a holiday home! ##### Judy H.
