Spacious and comfortable bach, really enjoyed it!
This bach was great! Better than the photos. all 4 adults had their own space and the place felt light and sunny. The fire was awesome. Close to the Leigh fish and chip shop and we swam daily down at Mathesons. Very close to the Leigh fire station so we had a few loud sirens but this did not bother us as all.

Relaxed Beach House
Leigh is a relaxed beach town, small and friendly. This house is just the right kind of place to stay in while visiting the town. It is more funky than fancy, with a bedroom and bath tacked on the back. It is very comfortable, with a well-stocked kitchen, plenty of blankets, lots of books and DVDs. You can walk from the house to the Leigh Bar or the General Store (note: the General Store cannot accept foreign credit cards; bring cash). It's a short drive to Goat Island or Mathesons Bay Beach if you are beaching it, and not far to Matakana (you should eat at Matakana Kitchen) or SheepWorld for a demonstration of sheep herding and sheering. We had a great time and would highly recommend this rental home.

Very comfortable property. While there was an issue the owner was not aware of (caused by a 3rd party) their response was immediate, helpful and every endeavour was made to resolve the issue. You cannot ask for any more and gives you peace of mind . Thank you for this and we enjoyed our stay at your place.

Kiwi batch styles
The house was well appointed with plenty of space for 7 adults and all the luggage that comes with that. The house smelt a little musty on first opening but was clean and well appointed inside, although the beds were quite hard. The outside area was great to get together for a few drinks and a BBQ as well as great sun up on the grass. Our group had a great stay and would come back again.

A perfect base
Location was the first priority for us as it was twenty minutes away from family we were visiting. But regardless Leigh was a great place to start our holiday. Nice walks, lots to see just a short drive away. Returning after a days adventures we felt very much at home. plenty of space, good facilities and comfortable. Would thoroughly recommend it. Ideal family accomodation.

Classic Kiwi Bach in Leigh
A lovely family bach — spacious, sunny and comfortable. Good kitchen and bathroom, and a great fenced outdoor area; ideal if you have a dog or young children. Lots of living space inside, and a covered, sheltered outdoor patio out the back of the bach. Would love to stay again — many thanks! Sally and Rosco
