Stunning Views and Peaceful Spot
We had a wonderful time gazing at the stunning views from this cosy sunny home with a lovely view lying in bed in the main bedroom. A perfect location for beach walking, walking to the lighthouse and also exploring the area. Thank you for a perfect Castlepoint experience. Also exceptional service for a laptop cable left behind!

Thank-you so much; we are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Windsong Cottage. We love sharing this very special spot with others so that they can create their own memories of traditional bach living, surfing, swimming, long walks and slowing down. We hope you stay again!

Nice BUT
The Queen bed matress is rubbish. The owners need to take some of their cash and invest in a new one. The refrigerator freezes your food like a freezer even on the lowest setting. It ruined some of our food. The hot water tap in the bathroom has a foul smell which stays on your hands. The shower tap leaks. The hot water bottle leaked and needs replacing and the oil heater was missing it's plug. Otherwise the view was beautiful and it was neat and tidy on arrival.

Great Bach.
Great view. Good for family and friends bonding as with no wifi. Needs a bread toaster, though. Very accessible and near the beach...we enjoyed walks until late ..All utensils are provided. Air fryer is a plus but did not know about this, will use it when we come back...lol. 1 light bulb is needed. Needs a new queen bed. Also needs pillow cases, will bring some next time... overall, a great bach.

What a view! We loved our stay here, the giant picture windows and sliding doors, and the lovely deck and lawn, we just loved looking at the beach, waves, lighthouse, and watching the weather roll by :) We went for many walks on the beach and rocks. The only suggestion I have is for a new bed please! I took a mattress topper based on other reviews, but the bed does cave in the middle a bit so it was not comfortable.

Lovely beachside getaway
Very relaxing weekend away. Stunning views and lovely beach walks. We struck a cold weekend - the eco heaters worked well, but would be good if the column heater was operational. The most needed item though is a new master bedroom mattress. In the meantime, suggest people take something comfortable to put on top of mattress eg extra blankets

Windy walks
Despite the wind and cold we had a great time. Loads of walking, north, south and west depending on where the wind was coming from. Bach had everything we needed and great views. Could do with a bigger heater when the southerly hits lucky we took our own. Really appreciated being told we had some extra time to enjoy the sun on our last day.

My stay with this magical place was breathtaking and blissful. Waking up every morning to the view of the sea is so healing and relaxing. Looking at the sea 🌊 at all hours of the day and night was magic. The place was tidy if anything I would suggest a new mattress for the queen bed. My cat 🐈‍⬛ and I had a wonderful week.

Great location
Great location right on the beach front. The bach is nice enough, but a little cold for winter -- only 2 small panel heaters in the lounge and that's it. Nothing in the bathroom or bedrooms. Will bring our own frying pan and spatula next time for frying eggs for breakfast, - the ones provided weren't great. Cell coverage is good (One NZ/2 Degrees). TV is located very close to the bedrooms, something to think about if you have a kid with you. Local shop has limited opening hours.

Great location. Typical bach feel.
This property was in a great location and perfect for a typical kiwi bach getaway if that's your style. Dairy down the road for anything you forget. Plenty to do in the way of walks and exploring, and just relaxing and admiring the view and goings on on the beach. It was perfect for a few nights. Despite expecting it to be cold at times, the panel heaters and the odd peek from the sun did a good job - better than i was expecting! Remember to bring linen, towels, tea towels/cloths, loo paper and rubbish bags at a minimum as this bach does not seem to be as well stocked with some of the leftover extra items you sometimes find at baches from the people before.

Loved the view, the music and the character of the house, but sadly felt everything was so “old hat” from the bed to the bathroon carpet and very old vacuum! It all needs a cheap lift n love, then it will be fabulous!
