Holiday Homes
Experience the Kiwi 'bach' (or 'crib' as they're sometimes called here in the South Island) tradition. Many New Zealanders have family holiday homes or cottages that they themselves use and also rent out to friends and others.
These holiday homes vary from tiny cottages on remote beaches to large homes with all mod-cons and stunning views. Holiday homes are almost always in idyllic locations beside beaches, rivers, lakes and forests.
Renting a holiday home for a short or long stay is a very Kiwi kind of holiday.
A list of "baches" available for rental in the Marlborough Sounds region can be obtained via email from the Picton i-SITE Visitor Centre: picton@i-SITE.org
