About this Holiday House

The big red-house is a spacious double-story four-bedroom holiday house at Manaroa, Clova Bay, deep in the middle of the Pelorus Sound. It’s the ideal getaway home for eight, only a hundred metres from the water and with breathtaking sea and mountain views. If you want to go fishing, swimming, walking or simply rest in paradise, this is 'your' spot. If you enjoy nature, peace and a quiet setting, this is also ‘your’ spot. The property is fully self-contained, comfy and has a 70s vibe; the beds are fresh and fully made up. Basic stores available. It’s big and clean, with a native courtyard and stunning views. Private Internet (restricted, not ideal for streaming movies, etc.) and digital TV are offered. Phone reception is outside or on the beach, depending on the cell device. A registered boat mooring is available upon request, and a boat launching jetty is located just 200 metres down the road. Shore fishing is pretty good, but fishing from kayaks or boats is even better! Signature catches include snapper, gurnard, blue cod and other species. (Excellent bait fishing for children on the jetty.) Clova Bay is a 25- to 40-minute boat excursion up and into the outer Pelorus Reach, as well as to the coast and Cook Strait, wherescuba diving is rewarding. You will also have access to hapuka beds. So, if all the above appeals to you, this place of amazing natural beauty is where you wish to go. The location is regarded isolated due to its tiny population, yet it might be called semi-remote during the summer months. Please note: No dogs due to birdlife. No extra people or tents. Outdoor fish cleaning bench. All rubbish to be taken out when you leave. There is now a FREE refuse station ten minutes this side of the Linkwater turn-off: a composter is supplied for food scraps; your host will remove regular household rubbish but all bottles and cans must be taken with you – a fee will apply if left. Vehicle travel time from Havelock is 2.0 windy hours, while from Blenheim it is 2.5 hours. There are no shops. The Portage Hotel is an excellent mid-way stopover. Coffee, bar food, and restaurant. Boat and water taxi travel from Havelock takes 50-70 minutes. Due to distance from amenities, your host, Marion, will be available (next door) for any enquiries, help and emergencies.

Laura
Everything is the Bach was amazingly accommodating, the only thing that let it down was the fridge inside kept freezing our food and with having a lot of salad food we ended up having to throw them out.
Response from Owner
I am so sorry about that, we were not aware that this was happening and will certainly look into it.
