About this property
Little Manly Cottage - Manly Holiday Home
Spend summer days lounging on the comfortable outdoor furniture with a chilled beverage in hand. In the classic kitchen, you’ll be able to cook up some light summery meals and spend some well-deserved quality time with your group.
Make the most of Manly from right here - two lovely beaches are within walking distance, one is 100 meters away and the other called Big Manly is at the end of Brixton Rd. Little Manly Cottage is also just a short drive away from the other fantastic beaches and parks on the Whangaparoa Peninsula and beyond, like Orewa, Stanmore Bay and the beautiful Shakespear Regional Park. Or take a short drive out to Gulf Harbour, Whangapaora Golf Club and the other beaches out at the end of the peninsula.
This home is only a 40-minute drive from Auckland making it within easy reach to attractions nearby. There are also excellent alfresco dining opportunities available at a selection of popular restaurants & cafes 5 minutes walk away in the charming Manly village.
Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.
