Special Amenities

Wind your way up the steep driveway through overhanging bush to Ruru Cottage and the view of Whangaroa Harbour and St Pauls Rock. The cottage is a great place to relax or to use as a base for exploring local attractions and Northland. Car Parking is adjacent to the cottage. We advise not towing a trailer up the drive until you have viewed it, as there is limited turning space at the top.

KATIE
A very tidy, clean and comfortable place to stay. A lovely outlook. A fully equipped kitchen. With mosquito nets on the windows, it was lovely to sleep with the windows wide open, .... not that we saw any mosquitos while we were there. The owners, living next door were very welcoming and friendly. The perfect accommodation for our stay in Totara North.

A pleasant comfortable cottage with a distant view of Whangaroa Harbour. Admirable fruit and vegetable area tended by the owners made for a relaxing environment. The owners were very friendly and informative but not intrusive (in fact they left us to it for most of our week!)

Where to begin! This place is amazing. The house is clean, spacious, comfortable, and has everything you need - including a fantastic view of the Whangaroa Harbour. Our hosts, Sally and Phil, are kind, knowledgeable, and respectful. You could tell that they really wanted us to enjoy our stay. The location is top notch. You are just a short walk or drive away from dozens of hikes, beaches, and other attractions. A perfect spot for exploring the Far North!
