Stay

The property was tidy and clean. It had everything we needed for our weekend up in New Plymouth. The upstairs people were noisy when they came in, in the early hours of the morning.

stay at Bell Block

Mostly a pleasant stay, but any time the people upstairs ran water the pipes were noisy. We had some problems with appliances, and there are no instructions or booklets to help. Good location. Some info about the coastal walk would be useful, I found it by accident.Comms from both Bookabach and Bach Break were confusing!

Great Bach with stunning view and awesome team

I and my family had a wonderful break at Wills on the water. All the procedures are easy and simple and the house is amazing, stunning view, convenient location, nice facilities and friendly staff, Jo and the team were really helpful and reply our email immediately during holidays season, and help us straight away with great attitude, we really appreciate everything, they owner and the team are generous and kind and thoughtful, you find everything you could possibly need within the area, the only pity is that we couldn't stay longer. highly recommend and wish to come back in the future. Wish all the best to the team and family. Thank you very much!!!

Excellent location with sea views and farm vibes

Well equipped, clean, tastefully decorated Bach with BREATHTAKING views of the ocean and rolling hills. Farm vibes with big open stretches of grassy hills to the right of the property, sea views from every window... And yet part of the city and close to everything you need. Beautifully quiet and peaceful. Lots of lawn for kids to play. Note: Beach not accessible directly from property. No barbeque available which would have been awesome. Though this is a two bedroom unit, it feels spacious due to a long passage which sepwrates the rooms, big kitchen and bathroom and generously sized bedrooms. Loved it, hope to come again!

Peaceful and private. The perfect way to unwind

First of all a huge thank you to Jo for allowing us to stay at this amazing place. This place is perfect to unwind, away from all the hustle and bustle and relax with fantastic sea views. We decided we wanted a late check out after our first day which was not a problem. The clean and modern decor was also a highlight. A walk along the beach at low tide is also highly recommended. The super comfortable bed made for a great nights sleep. I would not hesitate to stay here again and would recommend this place to anyone who would like to get away from it all. Once again thank you Jo for your hospitality, we thoroughly enjoyed our weekend away. Nga mihi nui, Charlie
