General overview

We are nestled between the bush and the beach and positioned at the start of the track to Cathedral Cove. Swim, kayak or walk from bottom of our garden. Enjoy beautiful ocean views from a deck chair or while making breakfast in the kitchen. The beach house is situated on the quieter section of the beach, a short walk from the local shops and restaurant where live music cranks into late summer afternoons. Our daughters have loved the trampoline, the tree platform in the majestic, old pohutukawa tree, the rope swings on the beach or making dams/bridges over the estuary. This is a rental property. Availability depends on bookings. UPDATE: The Cathedral Cove track is 'officially' closed at the moment. However it is possible to visit Cathedral Cove by boat or kayak. The walking track is expected to open by Dec 2024.

The space

From the road, you enter the house down a series of stairs under a canopy of trees. (It is not suitable for people who struggle with stairs.) Our house is our holiday home and is very simple but it is in a wonderful location and worth the effort of the stairs. It has two separate levels, upstairs and downstairs, that are connected by exterior steps. Both spaces are self-contained with separate entrances. Upstairs This is the main living area with a kitchen, small bathroom, living area, one bedroom, conservatory and deck with a large outdoor table & BBQ. Downstairs Downstairs has been recently renovated and has a main living area, dining and kitchenette in an open plan space. There are 3 bedrooms and a bathroom off the central living space. We have kayaks, body boards and spades for guest use.

Notes

Not suitable for people who struggle with stairs. Young children will need to be supervised on stairs, trampoline and deck.

Allan and I are from New Zealand. We are in our 60's. Allan retired from the law last year, so now we have more time to travel. Yay! We are non-smokers, take great pride in our home and garden, and are clean & tidy people. We will treat your house as if it were our own. We have a beach house in Hahei on the Coromandel peninsular #10257 AND a 1 bdm guest cottage in Devonport, Auckland #17856
