About this property

The old bakery cottage located on the waterfront.

Bakery Cottage was built in the early 1920's by the Feist family who were the local bakers. She (definitely a she) is enchanting with polished wood floors and native timber wall sarking. Ideal for 2 couples to soak up her undeniable charm, chill out and enjoy all that beautiful Doubtless Bay has to offer. Start the day with a cup of tea on the verandah and enjoy the harbour view. Take a short walk to one of the cafes for breakfast and browse the shops, including the Flax Bush located next door. Spend the day at one of the numerous Doubtless Bay beaches within easy drive. End the day with a cocktail on the verandah followed by a bbq in the private courtyard at the rear of the cottage or walk to the Fish and Chip shop for dinner. Mangonui is an ideal place to stay if you are planning to visit Cape Reinga, its a day trip to the Cape and the evening can be spent at one of the numerous eateries. November 2020 in consultation with interior designer Kelly Ritchie the cottage was renovated. There is a new heritage style kitchen and bathroom with luxe vintage fittings. The living areas and bedrooms have been freshened and furnished to a high standard with beautiful local art. The courtyard has been revamped and is a cosy, private space, to gather in the cool during those hot Northland summer days.

Superb stay in Mangonui
We loved our stay in Bakery Cottage so much that we extended by a couple of days. It is a spacious and well equipped cottage that we immediately felt at home in. Pam was extremely helpful and made our stay really enjoyable.

Great place!
Pam’s place was perfect for our short stay near Cooper’s Beach. The indoor and outdoor space are both amazing. The view of the water is so peaceful and calming. Walking distance to excellent eateries and quaint little shops, and a short drive to the beach. Pam was very helpful and very prompt responding to our questions.

Guests from Piha and Vietman
Hi Pam. Your cottage is lovely and has a magnificent vibe. Alan and I and Vicki, a good friend visiting from Vietnam, enjoyed the view out over the harbour (indeed quite inspirational for me, since I'm a composer and used the occasion to sit in the sun room and finish a score). The kitchen was well equipped, and we created some lovely meals (even though I say so myself!) We will be back! Tara PS Plus we all shared with you a love of good artwork...

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL COTTAGE AND LOCATION!
We had the most amazing stay - the property was absolutely beautiful, well equipped and in such a wonderful location. Easy walk to cafes and restaurants, right across the road from the water and the perfect place just to sit outside, relax and enjoy the view. Easy check-in process and great communication with the host. Absolutely recommend and hope to return!

Perfect getaway
The cottage was everything plus. Tidy, warm, cosy, peaceful and really tastefully decorated. Very relaxing indeed. Our host was really fast at communicating and helped direct us to a few local artists to check out. Absolutely will be staying here again. Came home feeling restored :)

We purchased the cottage from my mother who had owned it for 18 years. We had lived there for 18 months before buying our first house in Mangonui. Mangonui is my home, the villa next door to the cottage belonged to my grandparents. I have many happy memories of this part of Mangonui, in the 1970's we local kids swam and played at the waters edge while my grandmother ran a busy tearooms in the villa. The cottage is a special place.

What makes this property unique

A quintessential cottage located on the water, close to the village with cafes and shops.
