About this property

Moeraki Cottage overlooking the ocean in the Moeraki Village

Cute 1930s cottage located in the Moeraki Village, very sunny with views over to the ocean to the North and East.

1 bedroom with queen sized bed.
All linens/ towels etc are provided.

New oven and microwave and washing machine.
Logburner with wood provided. There is another heater however the log burner is the main source of heat.

There is a TV in the bedroom with an HDMI cable connection to allow you to play movies from your computer, There is no freeview TV at the cottage.

There is no Wifi/ broadband/ internet. We use our mobile phone data for internet access when we are staying. We have good coverage for Skinny/ Spark so be prepared for this.

Please note: The house was built in the 1930's and has the character and the flaws of an old house. There are draughts and quirks. If you prefer modern style accommodation then this is not the place for you.

Moeraki

Excellent bach, warm with the fire at nights. Great kitchen, lots of seating outside if sunny. Older place, but roomy for 2 and comfortable. Great value for money. Awesome views from up high.

Tranquility

Lovely old building, beautifully modernised and redecorated, but retains its character. Nicely situated with surrounding native Bush. Tiny glimpse of the sea in the distance, and very peaceful. Obviously a work in progress, and what has been done is of a high standard but we would love to come back again and see how it developes. Everything you could want for a quiet stay. TV although not essential, would be a bonus. Leigh and Kay.

Apologies if you found it cold. There are fire starters and 2 firefighters for your use. Because you refused to take away your own rubbish we received a low review from the following guests. Please make sure you understand the property rules prior to using Bookabach and you will find you have a better stay. Good luck

Something Missing

Overall we enjoyed the stay. Obviously the cottage is a work in progress. Lovely bathroom! Peaceful setting and nice views. What was missing? A working TV. Not having a TV is not the end of the world, but a little mention in the listing would suffice. Thanks
