The Library Bach - A special place people love! | House in Pakawau Beach
2 Bedroom House in Collingwood, Pakawau Beach
โSilver Winner Golden Piwa Awards" BEST IN HOSPITALITY!
A few steps away from a safe swimming beach, โThe Library' refers to the original bach on this property, a small relocated country library. This now serves as a characterful sleepout and sits behind the main bach which is located beside an estuary. The large section is quiet, bush-clad, bird-filled and has superb inlet and mountain views.
The bach is private and open plan - think designer retro-pacific styled tramping hut! Beds are in the loft and on the ground floor with no doors between. The bach's size, character and proximity to stunning beaches help make it a wonderful holiday destination for couples or small families.
There is great mobile phone reception at the bach.
Extra features include nearby migratory godwits and other wonderful bird life, including little blue penguins who are rarely seen but often heard and nest under the library sleep-out or wood pile. Plentiful cockles and pipi are a short stroll away at low tide. There are also a superb selection of natural history, children's and other fiction books, a large record collection, gas hot water and stove top, kayaks, paddle board, an outside bath and a composting indoor toilet.
The bach won an NZIA Resene Local Award for Architecture.
