Lovely peaceful cottage
This property is in a great location for access to beaches and bushwalks with the Titirangi Village within an easy drive. The outlook is beautiful, onto natural bush. The house was well appointed, had everything we needed, although we found the beds uncomfortable. Overall we had a pleasant stay and found the hosts helpful and nice to deal with.

As a family we enjoy the bush walks around us and also traveling around New Zealand or overseas when we can.

Why they chose this property

If you want to be close enough to the center of Auckland city but still enjoy the tranquility of a bush setting then this is definitely the place for you. Here you can certainly enjoy the best of both worlds.

What makes this property unique

This really is a location where you can enjoy the best of both worlds. There are the ever changing bush views and native birds. There are bush walks on your doorstep and there a numerous opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.

There are great cafes and eateries only 5 minutes drive away as well as Te Uru, the local art gallery. Further there are local markets as well as some a further drive away that we can recommend.
This is a north facing house that gets all day sun, and it is in a quiet location. However if you are missing the hustle and bustle of the city then Auckland City center is only a 30min drive away. Why not take a day out to explore some of the nearby islands. Tiritirmatangi, for example is a local bird sanctuary, which is well worth a visit.

If you just want to sit back and relax then the house has a large selection of books for you to enjoy during your stay.
