About this property

Our beach house! Walk to the beach.

Ocean views. Great large family beach house. A large sunny second storey deck with views over the ocean from Kapiti to Mt Ruapehu.

Furnished as a home away from home: fridge freezer, microwave washing machine, dryer, Freeview, Stereo/turntable. Unlimited fibre broadband. Kitchen fitted out completely to accommodate home cooking if you wish.

Huge flat sunny front and back sections in a quiet cul de sac. Section and house maintain all day sun.

The large back yard and a range of children toys are available including sand toys, puzzles, toy basket and kids books supplied.

Located 200 meters from local cafe open every day from breakfast to dinner, or use the really popular local fish and chip shop!! Only minutes to Foxton Reserve, Playground, 3 Tennis Courts and Skate Park - Great for keeping kids entertained - Nice and quiet flat cul de sac for riding bikes, walking, going to feed the ducks. Estuary and Boat Club nearby - Suitable for boating - Beach is permitted for driving on.

This fantastic bach is a great family beach house.

Walk 200 metres to get an ice cream down the road or 200 metres to the beach - Or if you want to take a drive 5 minutes down the road are the Foxton Shops, working Dutch Windmill and Swimming Pools.

Can sleep up to 9. Portacot available. Two toilets.

Great holiday home or quick escape from the city. Just one and a half hours drive from Wellington and 30 minutes from Palmerston North.

Look out over the sea. A fantastic swimming beach with surf life savers on duty over summer. Great for wind activities like kite surfing, blow carting or just going for long strolls.

View the sunset and listen to the waves from the deck or the lounge. See Ruapehu during breakfast and Mt Taranaki in the evening and all day views down to Kapiti Island.

Great location for families - close to the beach and bike track/playground. Good set up for longer stays and wifi and Freeview were handy for rainy days. A bit rundown/dirty and would benefit from some maintenance jobs being completed. However a classic old school kiwi bach experience.

Awesome location and nice views. Everything you could need for a beach house. Think could do with a good deep clean and had a bit of a musty old smell going on and maybe needs an update a bit-outdated. but otherwise a good stay. thank you :)

Excellent value for $$$

We booked the bach for some of our performers that were taking part in The Little Foxton Beach Comedy Fest, and it was perfect for us. Very close to the venue we were using, plenty of parking and all that you needed for a stay. Thank you very much for the hospitality and we'd love to book again next year :)

Great location, spacious house, our daughter enjoyed the toys thanks. We won't be back though because of the stained mattress protector and pillows, and overall level of uncleanliness.

Great batch style house close to the beach and the pub. Got everything you need. Showers average but with a short stay dont need it. Us cousins meet once a year to catch up and chill for a weekend away. Will be back.

Great location, but accommodation leaves a lot to be desired.

Awesome location, close to beach with wonderful views. Outdoor furniture to enjoy those views was sadly lacking and the general state of cleanliness and condition of furniture/bedding etc was not up to acceptable standard. It's a beach bach, and we really didn't expect luxury but the house needs a thorough clean (of dead bugs all over the walls) and some outdoor furniture for it to feel like somewhere we'd stay again.

There are folding deck chairs in the corner of the lounge for use outside. We store them inside as the sea air is too hard on them to leave them outside.

Stay at 42 Nelson Street

We loved the house. Unfortunately, the heating upstairs didn't work but we sorted that out with heaters elsewhere in the house. It is a very versatile home, with easy access to the beach, and is not so pristine clean that you didn't feel comfortable. We would suggest a deep clean by a professional company once a year to keep it is tip-top shape. Would definitely come back

Great location

The house was in a great spot 2 min walk to the beach. Great deck to sit on and enjoy the sun. 3 good size rooms and 1 small room. But the house was dirty, The toilets leaked water all over the floor.There was sand although the shower. The duvets supplied were dirty ( we had our own sheets and pillows so didnt use anything there.) We only stayed 1 night instead of two. Its a shame as the house has a lot of potential it just needs a really good clean.
