Absolutely one of the best stays we have ever had anywhere! Gillian and Steve are the mostly friendly and gracious hosts and we’re an absolute pleasure during our stay. Some of our best times were just chatting with them about life!
The cottage is thoughtfully decorated and has every convenience needed for a comfortable stay. Plus, overlooking a sheep paddock is a dream as you enjoy your morning coffee on the patio.
Muriwai is also a wonderful place to spend a few days (we wish we spent more time here)! It is close to the city and central to many great day trips. We did Waiheke Island one day which was an easy drive into the city and ferry ride. The second day was spent mountain biking at Woodhill (highly recommend) and surfing with a group lesson at Muriwai Surf School (also highly recommend)!
Book this cottage now - you won’t regret it! There is plenty to do and explore in the area to fill any length of time.
