Secluded in the hills with mature trees and a peak view of the harbour
Welcome to this modern tiny house. Peaceful and quiet amongst nature. No neighbours. This amazing property offers a serene escape with compact living. Hot water by gas and power by solar panels. This tiny house is made from SIP, "Structural Insulated Panels" and double glazing joinery. An all weather driveway is steep and more like a farm track, no problem for a competent driver. We're happy to assist with any questions.
The only thing was the driveway lucky I had a truck also wouldn't have been able to get up there at all with the car otherwise it was very close to the airport we were going location was great
Had a lovely summer stay, completely private, great cooking facilities, and amazing sunset views over the harbour. Only potential downside was with the heat and the western orientation. the cabin gets quite warm of the afternoon/early evening. A fan would be useful to circulate the air.
There were pro's and cons to staying here which was reflected in the affordable price. The pro's were: good communication and directions, all linen supplied, clean, comfortable bed, close to Whangarei, peaceful and stunning views over the harbour. The cons were: navigating the driveway is not for the faint-hearted and I suggest arriving in daylight so you can see, this is a 1-bedroom cabin, running off solar power/tank water, with an ensuite, small kitchen/lounge area and very basic, no TV, wifi or laundry. The water tank was empty when we arrived and although the host tried to get a tanker out, we were left without water overnight until the following morning. Finding alternative accommodation late Friday night on Waitangi weekend was not a viable option, so we stayed. Although I loved the location, I love my small luxuries in life more and will most likely not book this again.
