About this property

Unwind and relax amongst stunning native bush

Put your feet up on the veranda and get lost in the wonderful sound of the flowing stream, wrapped in 101ha of protected native flora and fauna.

Cosy-up with a book beside the fireplace within this serene cabin or gaze far into the Milky Way, void of any light pollution from the city you've left behind.

Then wake up to native birdsong in full symphony with an optional delicious homestyle vegetarian breakfast.

It's a place where time disappears.

The cottage is set within the Huka Huka Toroa Reserve, on the Banks Peninsula in the town of Little River. The township itself features a historic railway station home to the Craft Station Cooperative, which sells local produce, art, and crafts.
