The Cape View Pacific Ocean Experience

True experience seekers will love living on the edge of the Pacific Ocean in a recently refurbished and fully insulated double glazed tiny home aka The Cape View Shed. Set in a quiet beachfront residential location exuding seaside charm with a magnificent view of Hawke Bay and an uninterrupted view of Cape Kidnappers.

Capture the sun and moon rising while relaxing in the cedar hot tub which is chlorine free and uses a spa treatment containing colloidal silver. On occasion witness a seal sunbathing or a pod of dolphins swimming out at sea.

The Cape View Shed is a light filled space with open plan living/sleeping with a separate bathroom with twin Italian basins, one for washing dishes and one for personal hygiene both with modern gooseneck taps. Suited for maximum of two guests. The accommodation provides a queen size bed and a small single divan bed. Kitchenette with microwave and fridge only. Smart TV. External caravan plug. Macrocarpa decking areas are for your sole use as is the Weba BBQ. You are welcome to use the fire pit also. Two bikes are available on request at time of booking to explore the coast via the cycle paths.

Approximately 700 metres to Elephant Hill winery. Also very close to Clearview and Te Awanga Estate Wineries. A two minute walk to the Brown Dog Coffee Cart, Four Square, Gannets Bar & Grill and Capeview takeaways.

The accommodation also has the Cape View Cottage located on the site, being the owners private holiday home. When the cottage is in use the Cape View Shed is made unavailable on the website to ensure your privacy. The cottage has separate outdoor areas to the roadside lawn and verandas to the seaside which you are welcome to enjoy also. Your privacy is our priority.

The property is fully fenced and gated with off street parking. Visit the Gannet Sanctuary or play golf at Cape Kidnappers. The fact the Cape View Shed is excitingly close to the Pacific Ocean is the magic of the place. You will hear the sea and at times the sea can be wild.

The outdoor areas are elevated above the stoney beach and are protected by a big sea wall which is a handy spot to fish from. There is access down to the waterfront which you can walk along in low tide.

This is a holiday experience out of the ordinary.

What a beautiful place to stay! Our host was so welcoming and even opened their own home so I could cook dinner for friends also staying in the area. The area is handy for good coffee, meals, the beach, and wineries. I would recommend this place and will stay again. thank you.

Perfect coastal getaway
Beautiful accommodation in a beautiful location. We were spoilt with good weather but everything about the bach makes a perfect getaway. The spa is devine, the location is perfect and the bach is very comfortable and cosy. Thank yoi for the special extras and the use of the bicycles were just great.

Really lovely accomodation. Cozy inside, and a spacious outdoor area with a hot tub on the deck and of course, a beautiful ocean view. Had everything we needed. A minute to walk to a bar and small grocery shop. Highly recommend and hope to book there again next time we visit Hawkes Bay.

Excellent start to our NZ tour.
An excellent stay at this compact but comfortable Bach. The sound of the sea sent us off to sleep in a wonderfully comfortable bed after a few glasses of fantastic New Zealand red in the cedar spa. The trip up Mt te Mata was a must, if a tad breezy.
