A guesthouse beside the main house at Lake View Estate, a gated community with private facilities. Mangawhai Village is a short drive and and Mangawhai Heads is another 10 min drive away.

Great cafes and restaurants for dining. Enjoy our complimentary snacks and fresh flowers.

Excellent overall

This is a beautiful property in a beautiful setting. The owners are fantastic! Very kind and gracious. They provided us with great breads, cheeses, and meats, and eggs etc. We felt right at home and very welcome. Lucky, the dog, made for a Great property mascot. We would absolutely recommend this place.
