Ideal spot for a holiday in the Whangārei area. We spent our last two nights here of our eight night road trip of Northland. It was so idyllic that we spent the second (and last) day staying local to McLeod Bay rather than going back to Whangārei township. This is a true bach with lots of little extras. Very peaceful and comfortable. Eateries close by. Stunning scenery. Would be a great place for families to holiday (we are an older couple).

Fabulous stay! Loved exploring the local area. Wonderful walks with our wee @ both Ocean Beach & Pataua North & Pataua South Beach.The cottage was lovely & clean, light & sunny with everything we needed. Gorgeous sea views & we enjoyed dining on the front deck. My woofee also loved the secure fenced garden to play in. Many thanks Robyn & Peter - we will be back Kindest Bex & co

Great start to a honeymoon! My wife and I started our honeymoon at this cosy cottage and it hit all the marks for us. Beautiful view right out the front door, lovely living space, wonderful area, and very clean. We will be recommending the cottage to everyone we know!

Cosy cottage by the seaside. We stayed here for a week and it was perfect!! It had everything we needed and was exceptionally clean and tidy. The location was great being just across the road from the beach, a 5 minute drive to launch our boat and plenty of walks close by to enjoy. The host was lovely to deal with and always got back to us promptly. We loved our stay here and hopefully will be able to return in the future!!
