Holiday rentals near Miranda Shorebird Centre

This property was just what we needed and in a perfect location. The property manager was very friendly and accommodating. Would stay here again.

The place is quite easy to find. We met Pete up the driveway to the house. We found him very obliging, friendly and informative, great person. The property was even better than we imagined. the house was very clean, spacious, well furnished, all the amenities you could possibly need and amazing views. We absolutely loved our stay and it felt really homely. We didn't really want to leave and will recommend to other friends of ours.

Absolutely loved this little cabin. Really well renovated and appointed cabin in a wonderful location on a small farm. Nice small deck to sit out on and BBQ or a lovely sitting room inside if you'd prefer. Nice comfy bed and really nice bathroom and shower. Lots of animals to see and the historic farm is also really interesting. Really peaceful if you're looking to relax. Great communication with owner. Highly recommend.

nice tidy place. with all the mod cons .

We have traveled the world and stayed at many accommodations and this really is the best we have experienced.

Location great, cleanliness great, provisions great, access great, nothing about the property could be faulted. Property owner was well prepared and friendly when we arrived, communication before arrival was excellent. The only (very very minor) request for improvement would be a light on the sign on the road, we returned at night and struggled to locate the entrance confidently in the dark. Noting this did not detract from the stay in the slightest.

Jenny was a lovely host who contacted us by phone before our scheduled stay to share details of the b-n-b. Did we like the A2 milk which they sourced from a nearby farm? Did we have any special dietary requirements for the continental breakfast, and so on. Just generally we had a good chat so that it was a pleasure to meet her in person finally and to be greeted with bowls of fresh fruit from the property, and Jenny's sourdough bread when he say down to breakfast in the morning. We stayed overnight in this nicely outfitted b-n-b to attend a party about 6 km distant at the Pūkorokoro Miranda Shorebird Centre. We'd recommend this b-n-b and can we also recommend a visit to the shorebird centre. It has hides for viewing a wide range of shorebirds, and in particular does international work to preserve the feeding grounds along the shores of the Yalu River - part Chinese, part North Korean - for the godwits as they journey each year from New Zealand Aotearoa to Alaska to breed. I think Jenny sometimes does voluntary work down at the centre. I met Maarten the day of our departure, - a musician, and we had a good chat around that. Interesting that he works with sound, because perhaps the dominant feeling we took away from this lovely Waitakaruru property was how silent the night was. A quiet boon for suburban Aucklanders . . .

The hosts are lovely beautiful place to be very enjoyable highly recommend to all Cheers Kris and Mal.
