About this property
Te Henga Hideaway
Our almost new tiny home sits in a private and secluded garden, surrounded by native bush. 
We respect your total privacy, but if you are keen to chat, we are always here to talk, and help you out.
Our home ist just 100m up the driveway, just pop in or give us a call. We have no mobile phone reception here, but if you have a more recent phone, you can turn „Wifi Calling“ on your phone, and you will be able to use the 4G network.
There are no neighbours around us, and you are most welcome to explore our short bush walks on the property. Just wander around the bush line and you will find them :). (See photos in Gallery)
We are situated just 2.5km from the very popular Bethells Beach (Te Henga) and 2km from the beautiful Lake Wainamu, featuring the most amazing sand dunes. The perfect destination to stay after your arrival in Auckland, before you are heading North.
Or stay a few more days and explore our other amazing beaches nearby, such as Karekare, Piha or Muriwai, only a 40 minutes drive away.
How about a bush walk in the Waitakere Ranges? It's only 8km away.
Those destinations are making it very attractive to stay a few days longer.

About the host
Hosted by Dagmar and Hans

Our passion in life has always been working with people, and we both have a background in education.  Later in our life, we have recruited hundreds of German speaking international students into New Zealand high schools. We emigrated from Germany to New Zealand in 1987. 
We have always lived in West Auckland, as we love the Waitakere Ranges, the most beautiful place in the wold. That’s what we believe, anyway.
We have lived at Te Henga (Bethells Beach) since 2006 and we love our property, maintaining the house, garden and the surrounding bush. We also enjoy walking to- and along the beach, and hiking in the Waitakere Ranges.
We can assure that you will enjoy your stay with us, and we look forward to meeting you soon.

Why they chose this property
Te Henga Hideway is especially suited for the nature lovers of you, but if you like the busy city life, restaurants, events or entertainment, Central Auckland is only a 40 minute drive away.  
But it's all about nature here, such as:
- Lake Wainamu and the most amazing sand dunes, only 2km away
- Bethells Beach (Te Henga), 2.5km.
This beach, and O’Neil’s beach, to the right across the river, are very popular for surfing.
Bethells beach is a dangerous for swimming, as it is very rough and has a lot of strong undercurrents. So be prepared and respect the force of nature. Lifeguards are present for most of the time during the season.
Do not miss the big cave at the end of the beach, we have put a picture in the Gallery for you.
- Montana Track in the Waitakere Ranges. A must to see, to appreciate our mature, native bush. You will see large Kauri Trees, up to 800 years old. Only 8km away from us.
- Piha Beach and the famous Lion Rock, one of the most taken pictures in New Zealand, 40km away from us.
- Muriwai Beach, also well known for surfing . There you will also see the largest Gannet Colony in New Zealand, 30km
- Karekare Beach and waterfall, 43km.
Te Henga and Karekare are very popular places in the Film industry. You may remember the award winning movie "The Piano". The Piano stood on Karekare Beach.
- Arataki Visitor Center on Scenic Drive. A great source of information about the Waitakere Ranges.
You will find some pictures of all those destinations in our photo gallery.
