About this property

Quail Cottage - Quaint, Cosy, Peaceful and Private

The cottage is close to Coromandel's arts scene, restaurants, pubs, craft shops, local attractions and coastal views. You’ll love my cosy Coromandel accommodation as the space surrounding the freestanding rustic cottage affords total privacy in a beautiful orchard garden displaying a lovely rural ambiance as it backs onto bush-clad farmland. There's also a free carport for a car/boat and it's only 1 km from the town centre and areas boat ramps. My homely retreat is ideal for couples, cyclists, solo travellers, hikers, fishermen or anyone celebrating a special anniversary.

The secluded two room Gold Prospector's cabin-type cottage is completely separate from the host's main house, and is screened off with olive bushes and trees. Outside the cottage you'll find a small porch with some seating and an outdoor picnic table with views into the orchard, making it a great place to view the regions bird life whilst you evening meal cooks on the BBQ.

The property features a wide driveway access to the cottage and the lower part of the private garden and orchard making it the ideal base to explore this beautiful upper region of the Coromandel Peninsular.

Quaint Cottage
I liked the cottage it was cute and comfortable. There was very limited wifi and I did not enjoy having to go outside to the outdoor seating to get wifi. I wasn’t aware the toilet and shower were outside. I wasn’t too happy about that. Overall it was a comfortable stay. Best sleep had in all holidays awww bed and pillows were awesome 👏 Shane was a great host and made sure we had beautiful flowers in our room upon arrival.

Excellent stay for a single or couple. Very quiet semi rural, private at back of property. Only a few minutes to town and great restaurants. Main cottage perfectly adequate. Detached toilet and shower is fun and ok but might not suit the more sensitive or private person.
