About this property
Craypot Cabin: a slice of paradise on a lifestyle block nestled below Mt. Manaia
Fully equipped and newly renovated cabin with 2 bedrooms both with queen size beds, open plan living area and large bathroom, a real home from home awaits you. Nestled at the base of Mount Manaia, located on a quiet and peaceful lifestyle block set off the road surrounded by paddocks you can’t help but relax. With ducks on the pond and cattle, sheep and lambs in the paddocks, this really is a slice of paradise. You can even see the Ocean too.
Unlimited wi-fi, TV with FreeView, Chromecast and a DVD as well as DVD’s, books and games to enjoy.
Hotel standard linen and towels are all provided for your stay.
Plenty of parking for cars and a trailer boat, with a choice of 2 boat ramps within a 5 minute drive. The fishing is pretty awesome too!
Separate laundry and washing machine as well as plenty of freezer space in case you go fishing.
Watch the sun rise and enjoy the sound of nature as the sun sets. At night take in the starry skies and listen out for the Kiwi's as they call out to each other from our backyard.
Within walking distance of Taurikura Beach and just a 7-minute drive to the stunning Ocean Beach. Whangarei Heads is known for it's abundance of breathtaking walks, we're also just a few minutes off the official route of the Te Araroa trail. Not forgetting Mt. Manaia which is listed as one of the 10 Best Walks of New Zealand, you can look down on your accommodation from one of the lookouts.
And with Kerikeri and the Bay of Islands just over an hour away you will not run out of things to do and see.
Due to this being a lifestyle block, NO PETS are permitted
