About this property

Ruru Cottage nestled at beautiful Bethells Beach

Rustic 2 Bedroom home nestled in the Bethells area.
Stunning views of Bethells Beach and the Sand Dunes that lead to the beautiful Lake Wainamu. Relax and unwind in this Bach surrounded by natural beauty and birdsong. In the day hear the birdsong of the Tui and in the evening listen out for the unmistakable call of the Ruru (Morepork) Owl.

Only nature at it's very best.
This beautiful bach is perfect for a family vacation or a romantic getaway. Or a quick 2 minute drive to the beach for a walk along Bethells beach or a surf over the hill at the well know O'Neils surf beach.
In the summer there is the Bethells Cafe which offer food and beverages.
A beautiful location for a winter escape, rug up and explore the beach and then come home and relax in front of a roaring fire.
A 10 minute drive will take you back to the Waitakere Golf club.
You have the luxury of privacy of a whole house, offering value for money and accommodating up to 8 people.
We have wi-fi at the bach and a land line for local calls. There is now a mobile tower in the area so you can stay connected. .
