Te Araroa section walkers

We found the cottage to be well appointed, warm and welcoming. It is close to the Te Araroa trail and we were able to enjoy a drink by the river at the end of our section walk, then wander back to the cottage for dinner and a good sleep!

Very peaceful and affordable

Lovely spot amongst a citrus orchard. Handy to all the things to do in the Bay of Islands. Appreciated the Laz-e-boy chairs after a busy day exploring the area. Highly recommend to others.

Relaxing and gorgeous

Fabulous views. Very clean. Had everything we needed. Has had a makeover since photos were taken and is much nicer than in photos. Loved having the swimming at the end of the drive and being in such a quiet space. Watching the boats all day was so relaxing and fun. Would love to go back.
