Please note for New Years bookings you must ENQUIRE first before booking as we have different requirements for this period.
Set at the end of a long drive amongst mature bush is this secluded slice of Magical Mangawhai paradise. The cottage has been lovingly refurbished to capture the essence of beach holidays and the 180 degree estuary and ocean views are quite simply stunning. Upstairs features two bedrooms, one with a King and another with a Queen. There is also a third bedroom locateddownstairs which features a Queen. With decks on both sides of the house and large bi-folds there is great indoor/outdoor flow and plenty of options whatever the weather. There is also direct access to the estuary down a formed bush track with 150 steps to ensure you get your daily dose of exercise.
With two double kayaks available on request (don't worry they are stored at the bottom of the track!), explore the estuary and the huge sand dune a couple of hours either side of the high tide. Or alternatively laze on the deck with a good book and/or a cold drink. Watch the colours change on the estuary and dunes as the tides ebb and flow and the sun rises and sets over this picture postcard view.
For entertainment this property also now has a 55 inch SMART TV and soundbar.
The property is also in a great location for everything Mangawhai Heads has to offer, within walking distance to the golf course, Mangawhai Activity Zone, shops and cafes and only a short drive to the surf beach.
With three bedrooms and two bathrooms it is suitable for a small family and friends/grandparents or a couple of mature couples. This is truly a great place to relax and unwind even when Mangawhai is at its busiest.
Please note that the bunk set shown in the photos of the Downstairs bedroom is no longer present.

    Really lovely house with most amazing view. Better than the photos on line. Well equipped holiday home. Plenty of space for a small family. Nice and quiet down the end of a long drive nestled in bush. Walk up and down steps to the estuary below is a great work out. Highly recommend this house.

    This is a special gem of a place. Views are fantastic, house is spacious but cosy, handy to all amenities and so private. Couldn't ask for more in a holiday house. We'll be back!

    We loved how peaceful the location was. The only sounds were nature. So secluded but so close to everything as well.

    This Bach was absolutely the best home during our 10 day visit to New Zealand. We walked in and were overwhelmed by the stunning views of the estuary and the ocean. We could could not have found a better place to unwind and relax, especially watching the sunrise every morning. The location was ideal. The Bach felt very private yet a short drive to restaurants and shops. Overall it it felt like a treasured home and we were lucky enough to be allowed to spend a few nights. Also a shout out to the host. He was attentive and quickly solved any issue with a warm friendly manner.
