About this Holiday House

Self-contained bach on Watercress Beach Paterson Inlet Stewart Island. Renovations completed late 2016 to "as new". We have reused and recycled as much as possible to maintain the Bach character and providing a high level of comfort. One queen-sized bedroom with ensuite shower and separate toilet suitable for one couple. Well equipped kitchen with fridge, dishwasher, water filter, gas hob, rangehood, electric frypan, slow cooker, stick blender and microwave. Luxury bed linen & toiletries, a range of teas and coffee and basic supplies - oil, flour, milk, seasonings etc. TV Freeview, Starlink wi-fi, books, games. Comes with loan car and transfers to and from transport to the island- please top up the petrol when you leave or leave cash to do so. Island electricity is diesel generated so instead of electric heating we have installed a highly efficient diesel heater. The whole place has double glazed windows and fully insulated. Please note: there are 22 steps up to the house. Please take this into consideration when packing your luggage. No extra linen or cleaning charges.

Judy
Cozy and serene. A very warm welcome from Fiona and Heath. Beautiful views overlooking watercress bay. Well stocked kitchen and comfortable bed. Having a car to run around the island made life easier. We loved staying here.

RUTH
Cozy bach with a magnificent view over Thule Bay. It is equipped with everything you need, has a super comfy bed and is within walking distance of some beautiful walking tracks. You can even walk to the shops through a forest. It didn’t worry us, but there isn’t access to the toilet in the main house. It was lovely to be met at the wharf by Fiona, who was so warm and friendly and gave us lots of local tips. It made our stay all the more rewarding. Rakiura is a magical place.
