About this property

Coromandel Orchard Cottage

One bedroom cedar cottage, nestled into private, tranquil cottage gardens with a veranda, separate patio, and paths leading to the orchards. The property is on 1.5 acres, fully self-contained with one new QUEEN bed Feb 2024 / bedroom, en suite, a double sofa bed in the open plan living area, and a portable crib with bedding provided. It can accommodate 4 people. It is a lovely warm place to stay in either summer or winter as it is north-facing and has a log fire for the winter, with air conditioning and heaters as required.
The property is an oasis of a variety of fruits in the orchards which covers the property. Most times of the year there is fruit. At the rear of the property is Driving Creek stream where the first gold was discovered in New Zealand and today you will find crystals there for a souvenir.

Within walking distance (5min) is the famous Driving Creek Railway, where Barry Brickell, a world-famous potter has established a truly fascinating environment, with potters and his world-famous railway PLUS there is now the Driving Creek Wildlife Sanctuary and a new Art Gallery which will exhibit Barry's private collection of very famous artists not to forget the fabulous views of the harbor and islands. Also, see the re-establishment of native trees and wildlife. On the way stop off at the funky Driving Creek Cafe.

The historic village of Coromandel is under 3km away, with fabulous restaurants and craft shops. The 3 local pubs all provide courtesy vans door-to-door. The cottage is 5-8 minutes to the closest safe beach or under 30 mins to the beautiful Whangapoua, NEW CHUMS and Matarangi Beaches on the East Coast, suitable for surfing, sailing, and boogie boarding
Also, there are bush walks to native Giant Kauri Trees, artist studios to visit, and a great fishing region - if you do not have a boat we would be happy to organize a trip for you or a trip to the Cape perhaps.

A wonderful place to stay and a great host. We just loved our time staying in Shirley's cottage and really appreciated Shirley's thoughtfulness and attention to anticipating the needs of travellers who come to stay. Shirley was a great host and helped us with ideas for things to do in the Coromandel region. The setting is wonderful - quiet and peaceful - and yet it's just a few minutes from the centre of Coromandel town.

We had a fabulous stay. The hosts (Shirley and Terry) were the most welcoming of people and could not do enough for us - extremely response and friendly. They made us all, including our dog, feel at home.The place itself was very nice. (The photos do not do it justice.) A very comfortable master bedroom, very nice bathroom with excellent shower. Really well-appointed and stocked kitchenette.The location is lovely. Coromandel Town is such a pretty town with great walks nearby. Would definitely recommend!

This place was ideal for my purposes. I loved it there. There so many little touches that were welcoming, like fresh flowers, tangelos from the orchard, fresh herbs from the garden. The bed was comfortable and the shower was great! The kitchen is well equipped. The hosts are on site and took care of me really well. I plan to return and would definitely stay here again.
