About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Watch the weather roll in along the coast with sea views from every room.

Relax at the edge of the sea in beautiful Kakanui. Overlooking Campbells Bay with sea views from every room, we offer a comfortable and cosy experience. With therapeutic sounds of the beach within walking distance, and historic Oamaru only 14kms away, you can enjoy a bit of both worlds.

A 1970s crib that has been extended over time, resulting in a quirky layout with three interconnected bedrooms that come off the lounge (no hallway), and is most suitable for families or close friends.

Please note: the house has old fittings and carpet so that animals can stay. Still very comfortable though :)

Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$90 per stay); Linen (included);
