Relaxing stay

Ellen's cottage is perfectly poised close to the beach with a deck to watch walkers and surfers enjoy this magnificent part of NZ. Felt very lucky to stay there. Loved the way the house was tucked into the hill, protected and cosy. Thanks so much. Mary and Geoff

A beauty by the sea!

Had a great stay at this fantastic property right across the road from the beach. The deck is brilliant, we spent a lot of time out there watching the waves! What a great place you have Ellen and family. We absolutely loved it!

Why they chose this property

A magical relaxing place to call home. Back in the day, Makorori was a convalescent ground, to come and be nursed back to health. The healing properties of such a place can only be felt!

What makes this property unique

Beautiful safe ocean to swim in, as well as its own reef and 'hidden' quaint waterfall to explore.
Quiet residential street.
