Hideaway retreat!
The cottage was set in a stunning area of Kawau island. Great to have access to the water, the use of kayaks was brilliant (especially seeing the stingrays gliding along with us) and you can’t beat being in nature! Bird song galore! We took a walk up along the ridge which was great fun too with all the little signs, and art along the way. Tried a bit of fishing and caught some snapper - unfortunately nothing big enough to keep. The top room which consisted of the living room, kitchen and double bed was great. Downstairs had a double bed, a single bed and the shower all in one room. Unfortunately downstairs wasn't as good as it was a little musty and damp.. but classic kiwi bach!

Beautiful view
Clean and tidy everything we needed, beds were a little hard, but overall we had a great time, walked across the island in the bush, sadly some of the paths that I remember were no longer accessible, but we still managed to see a lot. I spent a lot of my younger years further down North Cove as my parents lived there for many years, so it was a lovely nostalgic experience.

Perfect place to chill and enjoy the view!
Oystercatchers Bach is the perfect place to spend a quiet and restful couple of days. The view from the deck is stunning! Loved seeing the local wildlife all around us. The jetty is a great place to fish and there are kayaks to take out into the calm bay. The property is a classic rustic kiwi bach with everything you need. The hosts were lovely and super easy to communicate with. We will definitely be back soon!
