Rusty Snapper Bach - Russell

Very clean, modern, comfy & well located

Nothing

great location and really quiet. views of the harbour inlet and native birds everywhere

wasps

Lovely views and light rooms. Liked the wrap around balcony

Just not in easy walking distance to Russel. But not a problem and a lovely place

Location,location,location. Great views, close to town and beach.

Be aware there are extra charges if you change anything. Hiring a house, you still pay per person.

Emma met us at the property, showed us around and made herself very much available to us if we needed any help. I personally loved the location, as a local, because from the extreme left of the balcony I could see the Russell Boating Club, which our father was a founding member of, not forgetting the sight of all those predominantly white-hulled boats swinging, north, east, south and west according to wind and/or tide. Leo and I were in serious recovery mode following a 5 night camp on Motuihe, extending from 3 days before to 4 days afterwards with all the equipment, centre-boarder logistics, therefore we enjoyed the relative quiet.

I say "relative quiet" because ... except for i. the barking dog in the property below us - I don't think any of their neighbours would be very happy with such blatant carelessness on behalf of the dog as well as neighbours ii. the untimely weed-eating, lawn-moving person during our stay - for future visitors, I expect that this could be more carefully managed please. The man showed the demeanour of an automaton who had little or no care for anyone else.
