Wonderful weekend!
A really lovely property, clean and comfortable (had the best two nights sleep in a long time!), and the kids had a blast with the hut in the garden and the beach so close by. Highly recommend.

Lovely relaxing spot
Property as described. Location is lovely right near the beach, but short drive to Whanganui. The nearby citadel cafe is super close and lovely. Excellent communication. Beds comfy. Could do with an extra comfy seat in the lounge but otherwise perfect for what we wanted.

Perfect place for a restful holiday
The location was perfect, just a couple of minutes walk from the Castlecliff beach and surf club. The house was nicely furnished and had everything we needed for cooking meals and having a relaxing holiday. We also thoroughly enjoyed spending time in Wanganui which is a pretty town with lots to do.
