This cute, sunny, pet-friendly cottage is in a lovely bush setting in a quiet cul-de-sac close to everything Mangawhai has to offer. Its a 5 minute walk to the shops and golf course and a 10-15 minute walk to the estuary and Mangawhai Activity Zone. The surf beach and markets are just over 5 minutes away by car.
The cottage has 'Retro' styling, easy care floors and is light and airy and is truly a retreat for all seasons. In the summer, fling the doors open to give great indoor/outdoor flow. Set up the outside dining and entertain away or for those wanting a slightly more sedate approach, kick back in the hammock with a good book. In the cooler months, if its cosy you want, crank up the fire, there is wood a plenty for guest use and settle down to a large selection of films or family games.
If its activities you enjoy then feel free to use the bikes and paddleboards (soft roof bars available if you don't have them) and there is a range of safety gear available for both.
Security is important for little ones or pets so we've got that covered too, whilst the overall section is open in keeping with the area, there is a gate that can be added to the front deck to fully enclose the area.
If you are bringing your own toys, there is plenty of storage and parking for your stay.
Please note two of the single beds are trundler beds underneath the queen and double.
Would suit a family or a small group of mature couples.
The perfect place to relax and enjoy Magical Mangawhai!
Mangawhai is the perfect summer holiday destination or coastal retreat. With its beautiful swimming and surf beaches and abundant marine life, Mangawhai is a popular spot for sailing, fishing, surfing, diving and summer family fun. The clear waters of the estuary provide safe family swimming, and the secluded white sand beaches of Te Arai and Pakiri are a short drive away.
Enjoy the vibrant art and cafe scene, local farmers market and the famous Bennetts Chocolate Shop. Soak up the natural beauty of this slice of coastal paradise, beachcombing, bush walking or just relaxing in a comfy chair with a glass of something cool.
