About this property

Cosy Cabin, Central Whangarei in Bush Setting

You'll love this cosy cabin in it's bush setting with a lovely stream running past. An oasis in suburbia. The interior of the cabin is tastefully decorated. A luxurious Double bed,as well as a Double sofa bed, with outstanding bush views. Smart tv, Netflix and ultra fast wifi. A short terraced walkway connects the Cabin accommodation with a purpose built kitchen, dining, wash house and bathroom. The outdoor deck has a bbq and spectacular bush and stream views .

While only a 6 min drive from central Whangarei, as you enter the section, you'll feel a million miles from anywhere. The Cabin is set beside a pristine stream and surrounded by native bush. It is incredibly quiet and private given its suburban location. The interior of the cabin is minimalist, with touches of luxury. Relax in the super comfy Double bed, watching Netflix, with a view of nature. The Double sofa bed is an ideal place to relax during the day, and sleep on at night. Use as a sofa , or fold down and make up an extra double bed. The loft offers extra storage space,. The outdoor deck has a BBQ and spectacular bush and stream views - the ideal spot to enjoy nature at its very best.
The cabin is set up close to an Apartment (which is also available on Airbnb) but it is in it's own little corner of the property, and completely private, with your own gateway entrance.
The Laundry facilities are shared by the apartment guests.
The garden beside the stream is a delight. The walnut trees provides a cool outdoor living space - and a tranquil place to picnic, sunbathe, read, relax, or enjoy a cool drink on a hot day.
At the end of your day, let nature be your companion. Relax on the deck, fire up the BBQ, and soak up the views of the stream, or relax in the hammock under the stunning night sky.

There is also a BBQ area set up on the deck for you to use.

We have set up the guest accommodation to be self sufficient and independent. It is your own space, we live just a 1 minute walk away.
If we are around you will be warmly welcomed here. We are mostly busy and active so tend to do our own thing allowing you to do the same.
Those who like privacy will enjoy it here.

The neighbourhood is quiet, it's rural feeling but extremely central in Whangarei City. If you like an early morning (or evening stroll), the Quarry Gardens are just a 5min walk away, and are truly worth a visit. Head there in the morning for your coffee fix, or breakfast/brunch at the Quail Cafe situated in the gardens themselves.

Your best option for transport here is to have your own car or hire one. There's some nice cafe's and Kensington Sports Park within easy walking distance. But if you'd like to explore the area further a vehicle would be ideal.

We have fast wifi, unlimited broadband and a smart TV with Netflix account as well as access to the local TV channels.
- This is a peaceful neighbourhood. Please be respectful of noise.
- Other guests could be staying in the apartment on the property, please be respectful of each others privacy.

Xmas getaway
Stay was good. I would suggest a mirror on the wall of the cabin and perhaps a freestanding air cooler for hotter days.

Gorgeous Getaway!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend here! Very private cozy cabin, the ideal spot right by the river & surrounding native bush yet still close to all amenities along with great hosts that made sure we had everything we needed. Top 5 in our books for a perfect couples retreat.
