Wakatu (wait a while) Cottage

In the heart of South Bay - this is a great place to recharge the batteries.

This is a 'bring your own linen' house. There is no cleaner so pls be prepared to leave the house clean and tidy for the next people. Let us know if the property is clean tidy when you arrive thanks :)

One minute stroll down the reserve path adjacent to the harbour to see where the penguins are nesting or check out the fishing boats and whale/dolphin watching operations, potter round the rock pools or go for a swim.

Step out to the Peninsula walks, up to the views and back or take the challenge of the loop round the Peninsula to view seals close up, into town and back over the reserve walkway to South bay.

Launch your boat ahead of all the others first thing in the morning - parking inside for a 14' or plenty of room on the grass verge. Or snorkel at low tide - clean your catch in the sink/fish cleaning area round the back.

Safe for all aged children - property is fenced.

Penguins nest around the Coast Guard - if you have a dog, make sure its on leash in that area.

If you notice any damage, or things not working let us know by text email so we can get onto it.
