Friends of ours had their beautiful summer wedding here several years ago and the wedding party booked the cottages for their weekend. We booked for a few nights to getaway and experience some peace and tranquility without the long drive. Bethells Beach can be a bit gnarly and wild in the winter.. just what the doctor ordered!😊 We booked the the 1 bedroom ‘Turehu’ cottage directly from their website which suited us perfectly. BBC has two other beautiful cottages all boasting incredible views and facilities. Our hosts Trudy and John have a lot of time and energy into their property ensuring guests have a truly magnificent experience. Cottages are quirky and quaint, bathrooms and bedroom, lounge and patio are spacious and complete with outdoor fire. There is a full kitchen with everything you need to cook up a feast! We opted to take our own food and beverage however Trudy will cook delicious meals if this is booked in advance. John is a man of land and will be happy to share stories and knowledge of the area. We enjoyed lovely walks on the beach, open fires at our cottage, and star gazing in the hot tub at night. The West Coast has a lot to offer for the hard core explorers and my feeling is the Bethells Beach Community are doing their best offer this despite the many summer storms that have ravaged the area. The only disappointment was we had to come back to Auckland city. We’ll be back for sure !!
