    Bay Cottages is a sweet place to enjoy calm holidays and relax. You find everything you need even could make some barbecue. Larisa welcomed us warmly and showed us around. We would definitely come again ( also to cuddle with Dasha the cat)!

    The location of the cottage is within 5 minutes of the South Bay walk and 10 minutes from the Kaikoura Peninsula Walkway. Its location near to the South Bay is extremely beautiful and the dolphins coming to the shallow bay (just across the road)...
