A private Cabin with one room and one double bed set amongst a tranquil, peaceful country setting just minutes from Whangarei City and Marina, Abbey Caves, Parahaki Scenic Reserve/MBT and Whangarei falls. Perfect for working away. Nestled amongst 5 acres of country you can wake up to the sound of nature with views of native trees, bush, animals, birds while enjoying a beverage and cuisine on your own private deck. With an outdoor, covered bathroom you can enjoy a fully heated shower and toilet looking into the picturesque surroundings.
We are a family of 5, who love sharing where we are located. We like to if possible greet you on arrival and then we leave you to enjoy your own space. You can check in as late as you wish and check out as early as you wish. We designed this cabin so people can have the experience of country views, hence the outdoor covered bathroom facilities.
The best part about our accomodation is that it is in a peaceful neighbourhood which backs on Parihaki mountain bike reserve, is a 2 minute drive to AH Reed park, Parihaki bush walks and 7 minutes to the centre city and Hatea loop.
