Discover the charm of this delightful and serene accommodation. Nestled in a tranquil setting, the cottage offers a cozy space featuring a bedroom with a queen-sized bed with electric blanket, bathroom, air conditioning, and a living area equipped with a comfortable double sofa bed, television, and mini-fridge. Enjoy a simple breakfast complete with homemade preserves if you choose. Gaze out at the family garden and the treetops from the southwest-facing cottage, with morning sunshine. A little care is needed as you cross the decking bridge. We are still in the process of repurposing that end of the garden.
Just a 4-minute drive takes you to the heart of Havelock North Village, bustling with excellent dining, shopping, and self-care opportunities. Alternatively, a brief 9-minute journey leads you to the stunning Birdwood Gallery.
For those seeking a blend of work and leisure, the Shepherd's Hut in the garden serves as a dedicated office space, complete with a single bed, making it an ideal spot for a working holiday or a private retreat for young adults. Please note that the property is not suitable for children.
Adventure seekers will delight in the proximity to the legendary Te Mata Peak. Fig Cottage is conveniently located within hiking and biking distance, allowing you to witness the breathtaking sunrises and sunsets over Hawke's Bay. Embrace the opportunity for exploration and relaxation at our idyllic cottage.

About the host
Hosted by Christiana
Wayne and Christiana are your hosts, and we would like to warmly welcome you to Fig Cottage. Wayne is originally from Wanganui and I am from Havelock North. We both have day jobs. Wayne is an engineer and I am a teacher aide. We have two wonderful daughters who have moved away from home so we are empty nesters. Our pets, Missy the cat and Lexi a dog, are friendly and will most likely visit you during your stay. Wayne and I both have hobbies. Wayne's hobby is Model trains and he would be very happy to show you his efforts. My hobby is gardening which I hope you will enjoy while staying with us. The main house is connected to the cottage with decking, and while your privacy is of utmost importance to us, we will welcome you and check in to see if everything is ok, if we are home. Please feel free to come and see us or contact us at any stage during your stay.

Situated on Te Mata Peak is a wonderful restaurant where you can stop for a meal, coffee or general refreshments while exploring The Peak. Another must see is Birdwood Gallery with its boutique aesthetics, food, sculpture garden and gallery, not to forget the fabulous sweet shop.
