About this property
Godden Cottage, your perfect getaway space in the heart of everything
Perfectly situated in Mission Bay is this private self-enclosed cottage. This quaint little cottage sits adjacent to the main house and offers two parking space with its own dedicated entrance. The space offers a full kitchen with a two pot stove, dish washer, fridge, washing machine and 42 inch TV with Freeview. The lounge catches a considerable amount of sun and has sliding doors that open on both sides and pour out to a private, wraparound deck that overlooks our garden. There is a Heatpump offering heating and cooling all year around. The couch in the living is a double sleeper/foldout couch so we can accommodate an extra person if needed. There are sheets and towels along with shampoo or toiletries you may need. The bathroom has great water pressure with scorching hot water. All pots, pans and any kitchen utensils you could need are here, if you want to cook please go ahead. There are basic scullery items provided such as oil, salt, pepper, coffee, tea, milk on arrival.

About the area
Auckland
Located on the waterfront, this cottage is in Orakei, a neighbourhood in Auckland. Queens Wharf and Auckland Ferry Terminal are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those in the mood for shopping can visit Queen Street Shopping District and Princes Wharf. Check out an event or a game at Spark Arena, and consider making time for Auckland Zoo, a top attraction not to be missed. Scuba diving and surfing/body boarding offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking/biking trails and horse riding nearby.
