About this property

Great sea views and easy beach access

Only 15 minutes from the centre of Dunedin this family crib has easy access to a patrolled surf beach and is ideally situated for a great holiday. From the lounge you can watch the surfers and hectors dolphins play in the waves and see the ships going through Tairoa Heads. Enjoy the village atmosphere while taking advantage of all that Otago has to offer. From Warrington take the scenic coastal route to Karitane where you can take a fishing trip, hire kayaks or buy great brie at Evansdale Cheese. Venture further north to Moeraki or allow an hour to drive to Oamaru and visit the historic precinct. Go south from Warrington and visit Orokanui Sanctuary, explore the Otago Peninsula and the albatross colony, visit the arts and crafts of Port Chalmers, take a trip on the Tairi Gorge railway or just enjoy Dunedin city. When you get back to Warrington sit on the porch, relax and watch the evening light on the water while the children wander down to the playground.

Nostalgic kiwi crib, great views, easy beach access, hear the ocean sounds
Just what we needed after a busy two weeks travelling the South Island, with easy access to Dunedin in a top location with beautiful ocean views, and direct beach access. Children were skeptical about having no wifi or tv - was wonderful to see them enjoy life as it was in the ‘good ole days’ of kiwi bach simple living and many hours playing on the beach. Turned into a highlight for them. Wonderful to fall asleep and wake up to the sounds of the ocean. Thanks for sharing your family abode.

Cozy
Was under impression there was Tv and wiFi but none. If you have kids addicted to technology could become expensive purchasing data. Photos are Cleverly taken, much smaller then we thought for 5 of us, though was in a beautiful spot and very clean. A dining table would make it much easier for people to sit at and eat as i i could not get onto stools to sit on small bench due to my disability, where stove top sits on bench so a bit dangerous for small kids if they were to touch hot stove tops or walking past and people place their hands on them . Lovely views, comfy spacious beds. I would rate it 6/10

So beautiful.
An absolute gem. Comfortable, warm and with the most amazing view. Walks along the beach, glasses of wine looking at the beach. A hammock to relax in the sun. What more could you ask for?

Location A+
What an exceptional location, best view of the beach in the area, you can see the whole length from the lounge, easy to heat, great deck space and outdoor furniture. We came away with only a minor recommendations for the owners that was only slightly inconvenient for our family, to add a door handle on the front door as once its closed there is only key entry to the snib lock so once you head out to the front door you are locked out and having to go around the back door to gain access, Also (for people with pets and small children) just a heads up; it does not have a secure section and you can walk through to the house behind, this cuased us to constantly keep an eye on our toddler but also felt we couldn't leave our dog outside unattended or if we went out for the day being outside was not an option, our concern was it would wonder to the next house and bother them or run away as their driveway gate was left open whilst we were there, However; having pets available to this house is great and we do not take that for granted so will bring a long rope next time All and all we will certainly staying here again. Thanks Sandy All and all we will definitely stay there

Why they chose this property

This property was originally purchased by the owners grandparents in 1933. The original house burnt down in the 1950's and the crib was built by the owners father in the late 60's. It is a special property to our family and has been enjoyed by several generations. We enjoy sharing our special part of the world.
