About this property

Beachfront, peaceful cosy cottage, beautiful sunrises, a relaxing escape.

Our enchanting beach front home is in a peaceful location, half way between Hastings and Napier. Lovely neighbours and very dog friendly. Wander through the garden to explore the beach, enjoy the sound of the waves or walk to the river-mouth. You can hire bikes nearby from coastal wine cycles, to visit the local wineries like Clear View and Elephant Hill or to Hygee a great cafe at Clifton. Or if you're feeling energetic, cycle along the coast to Napier. We are right by the cycle trail. If you wake early you'll enjoy beautiful sunrises. The house has a log burner if you would like a cosy fire. If you feel like sitting around an outdoor fire and maybe toasting marshmallows we also have a fire pit in the garden. Hawkes Bay is a beautiful place to explore.

Pillows need renewing, there were cockroaches, and a thorough clean would help. It was peacedul, beautiful sunrises, and some nice walks. The owners collections were interesting.
