Tangahoe is a traditional Paekakariki bach, re-vitalised - in style and comfort - by Wellington architects Melling:Morse Ltd. A stone's throw from the beach, its generous living space extends onto elevated decks set amongst the tree tops. A serene double-bedroom hovers over a sheltered garden...(a couch/bed in the living area provides sleeping for 2). The bach is very sunny and warm but in a storm there is the comfort of a cosy fireplace.

The bach is a two minute walk from the entranceto Queen Elizabeth Park, and its magnificent coastal track (perfect for a leisurely walk, a bike ride, or a brisk 10k run). In the Village, the Paekakariki Cafe is a foodie's delight for breakfast and lunch; and a deli, bookshop and small art gallery completes the scene.

    Tangahoe is such a beautiful, peaceful place in an amazing location. It has everything you need and was just perfect for a quiet couple of days before the Christmas madness hit.

    Very nice place to stay. Clean and tidy. Nice big windows that looked out onto trees all around. Couches were comfy to sleep on. Kitchen and bathroom modern and in good order. Handy for the beach, playground and Queen Elizabeth Park. Would definitely stay again.

    No problems with this property that couldn't be solved by reading the info package (doh!). No views of the beach or the sea, but a very easy and quick 2 minute walk to the beach.

    We had a wonderful stay at this cosy architecturally designed bach. It was better in real life than the photos. Super sunny during the day and we loved putting on the fire in the evenings as the sun went down. Well appointed with everything needed. Margaret was excellent to deal with and responded to all our messages promptly. Thank you for sharing this special place with us.

    We keep coming back. Just the best of places for a couple to stay in Paekakariki. So spacious and well equipped that having guests in for a meal or get together is an easy option.

    We enjoyed our stay very much. Although suburban Tangahoe felt secluded. Even though the wind was cold, the decks were very pleasant with the sun out, and the trees kept the wind (especially the southerly) away.

    Lovely property nestled in bush. Couldn't see neighbours and very quiet. Host responded quickly to a small wifi issue and then followed up soon after. Paekakariki is one of our favourite places and we will be back to stay at this lovely whare again.
