The bach was very clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The bay was a short walk away and the views were stunning. We would definitely stay here again on our next visit to Whangarei Heads. Thank you to our Hosts for a lovely stay.

This bach was the perfect base for our weekend in Whangarei Heads. Lovely views of McLeod's Bay and with the house backing onto the bush, we enjoyed seeing the native birds. We even thought we heard kiwi at night. The bach was just the right size for our family of two adults and two kids, very clean and tidy, and had everything we needed. The kids loved playing badminton on the front lawn. The owners were very responsive to all our questions, and gave detailed instructions on finding the bach and the check-in procedures. Overall fantastic value. We hope to stay there again in the future!

Wonderful McLeods bay bach stay
This is a lovely bach in a beautiful quiet bay and had all the amenities that we needed. The view is amazing and we really enjoyed our stay. Our elderly father was easily able to move from the car to inside the bach, no stairs and enjoy the wonderful views. Thanks so muchLiz & whanau

Perfect little getaway!!
This property was perfect for our short trip North from Auckland. It had everything we needed, was very clean and comfortable and far enough outside the city to have peace and quiet.
