About this property
Pet, Child and ECO Friendly Holiday Home
Voted Bookabach NZ Best Pet Friendly Property - 2015
Awarded Bookabach NZ Supreme Bach Of The Year - 2015
Super Host - Airbnb 2023
Traveller Review 9.7/10 - Booking.com 2023
Located in the heart of Tasman, one of New Zealand’s most beautiful regions. The cottage's size, character and central location, make it the perfect retreat for couples or families.
The cottage is situated in a quiet rural setting in Mahana, the Heart of Sunny Tasman's Coastal Belt.
Couples will love the private and cosy intimate setting, Children will be easily entertained, and Pets will love the space.
Children can easily entertain themselves with the playhouse, sand pit, trampoline, toys, games, DVDs, and we also have the family dog, ponies and goats who would all welcome attention during your stay.
Stay in and relax at the cottage with under floor heating for added comfort and warmth in the cooler months.
In the Summer months enjoy BBQ meals at the outdoor table setting while listening to the Tui's chattering, enjoy a walk around the property, visit the Glow Worms, or venture out and enjoy the many activities the local area has to offer.
A sample of which include:
* Relaxing on the local Golden Sand Beaches or Kayaking Abel Tasman.
* Visit Local Wineries, and Restaurants. , Mapua Wharf Award Winning Restaurants 7 mins drive.
* Ski Rainbow or Hike the Kahurangi, Abel Tasman, or Nelson Lakes National Parks.
* Relax with a Beer at any of the local Craft Beer Breweries - The Craft Brewers Capital of NZ.
* Cycle 'Tasman's Great Taste Trail' or Mountain Bike at Kaiteriteri Mountain Bike Park.
Whether you would like an active holiday or a relaxing break, stay for a while and enjoy all the region has to offer.
Special conditions:
* Pets stay free with prior approval.
* Minimum 2 nights stay on Public Holiday Weekends, and Peak Season.
* Due to a tornado that affected the property at Easter, for safety reasons the forest immediately surrounding Beech Hill and around the property have been removed, yet the native bush by Beech Hill remains. Thank you for your patience while the property is redeveloped.
Extras: Cleaning (included); Linen (included);
