Peaceful attractive location and clean accommodation with large terrace (with privacy screen separating the owners accommodation) catching the afternoon/evening sun. The main room has a large comfortable bed, with a kitchenette to one side at the rear. Very friendly helpful hosts.
Just a short drive to Opua for the Marina Cafe or a few minutes more north to Paihia for most facilities. We walked from the cottage onto the coast path for an enjoyable circular hike with ferry crossings taking in Opua, Okiato, Russell and Paihia. At the time we hiked the boardwalk just north of the accommodation was under repair so a bit of a detour involved.
