The home is light-filled and positioned perfectly for all-day sun, with large windows framing stunning countryside views. The open-plan living area is ideal for groups and families. Cook in the full-sized kitchen (with oven, microwave, dishwasher and plenty of storage), then relax in the lounge with a smart TV for movie nights or kid-friendly downtime.

Step outside and you'll find a generous deck area with comfy outdoor furniture and a large BBQ. It’s a great spot for morning coffees or relaxed dinners while the kids run free.

Comfortable and amazing home

Our events team working at a nearby festival stayed here and it was so nice having an amazingly clean and comfy place to come back to, especially due to the poor weather. The place has everything you would need and more. The host was super easy to communicate with and very accommodating. Highly recommend anyone wanting to stay up in Mangawhai to stay here. All the niceties of home with a country feel and still close to all the shops and beaches.
Stayed 8 nights in Dec 2023
