We stayed in a three bedroom chalet that was very well appointed, clean, comfortable and homey. Management staff were very help with local dining and activity tips and suggestions. They even offer loaner mini-shovels for hot water beach excavations! When returning to the chalet in the late afternoon the interior was very hot as is probably expected summer without any a/c. However without any screens on the windows or sliding doors it was difficult to air without inviting bugs into the home. Our solution was to just return home later in the evening.

No AC

I should have noticed before booking, but be advised it does not have Air Conditioning. They leave windows open which does help significantly, however by dark there were about 30 bugs in the bathroom from leaving that window open.

Wat een leuke plek, zeker omdat je echt dichtbij alle belangrijke baaitjes zit! Het huisje is van alle gemakken voorzien. We misten alleen een airco! Het was daardoor te heet. Maar verder top!

Beautiful location and wonderfully laid out - Flaxmill was everything you could ask of a holiday park. Our cabin was a good size, landscaped so that it was quiet and private but enjoying the proximity to all the facilities that you could require.

Just lovely

One of our favorite places that we stayed on our New Zealand trip. The 3 bedroom house was the perfect layout for our family of four. Very comfortable, updated and had everything we needed. The garden view was lovely and being able to open all the sliders was so nice. Very convenient to walk to Shakespeare Cliff and beautifully Lonely Bay and short drive to stunning Cathedral Cove. We did make the mistake of trying to go out for a late dinner to find everything closed the first night, so bought groceries to cook in the second night and ate out on the patio and listened to the birds. If you want night life, this isn’t the place for you, but for a tranquil place in a modern yet comfortable cottagey place that’s convenient to great hikes, it’s perfect. Would definitely go back.
