About this property

Iconic New Zealand beach cottage with elevated harbour and bush views.

Mahurangi Magic- Comfortable and colourful bach ( Classic New Zealand beach cottage) with a great deck to enjoy elevated views over native bush to the Mahurangi Harbour. The views from the front BBQ deck are mesmerising and the birdlife is abundant. Fully-equipped kitchen with F&P dish drawer dishwasher. Breville espresso coffee maker. Cosy new king-sized bed with quality pure cotton sheets. Heat pump for cooling and heating plus Dyson fan and heaters. Free Wifi. Netflix and Sky TV. One good-sized private bedroom with beautiful views over the harbour and a small walk-through bedroom. Most suitable for a couple who want a romantic weekend away but can accommodate one or two extras on comfortable king single bed with trundle bed underneath. The bathroom is adequate but small. Shower over shub (small bathtub.) Currently there is construction work in progress on a downstairs bedroom but this is not visible from the guest area and does not impinge on your use of the property, unless accessing the downstairs laundry. If you appreciate character with a touch of nostalgia this property will appeal to you.

Fabulous classic NZ bach
We enjoyed a comfortable and relaxed stay in this cute, cosy bach. The views and surrounding area is beautiful (even during a summer storm), wish we had longer to enjoy the beach and regional park. The house had everything we needed, check in was easy and communication friendly.
