Originally a miner's cottage positioned across from the beach at Kaiaua in the Firth of Thames, this building has now found a new home in the winterless Far North. Our site is north facing, elevated with a fine view of Doubtless Bay and Cable Bay. Its an easy walk from the cottage to the shady Pohutukawas that line the pink sand at Cable Bay.
Award winning Northland builders Coastal Homes undertook careful renovations in keeping with the character of the cottage, now a much grander little house than she was ever born to be. The kauri bathroom vanity top was originally the kitchen bench, and the rimu trim in the kitchen is from the original kitchen cabinets. There is now a lovely granite benchtop in the kitchen and a combination gas/induction cook-top. A gourmet delight, there are many spices and garnishes on the shelves which you're welcome to use; we just ask that should you use the last of anything, to please be kind enough to replace ready for the next occupants and owner.
Fully renovated in 2012, the Miner's Cottage of Cable Bay is available to single guests or couples only. Sorry, no kids or pets. There's a new modern bathroom with good water pressure. Although no TV screen (bring a laptop) there is free speedy wi-fi, a Bluetooth speaker and plenty to read on the bookshelves. Crisp clean bed and bath linen is supplied and the tariff covers a light clean upon your departure.
The arhhh moment...sitting on the deck sipping your favourite beverage, watching the sun set or simply enjoying the many changing shades of Doubtless Bay; all accompanied by the sound of waves breaking on Cable Bay Beach.
The Miner's Cottage is managed by Bach Man. Special conditions: Smoking outside only.
We stayed four nights and were delighted with everything - comfort, beauty, convenience, offerings - great beach too!

Our stay at the Miner’s Cottage was very good. It is a small home, well set up for one or two people. The entire cottage is extremely well supplied and we lacked for nothing. We used the location as a take off point to see other attractions in Northland and it worked out perfectly. The two beaches, Cable and Coopers, were excellent. The manager, Dave, was there to meet us and gave a very thorough rundown of things to do and places to go.

Perfect base to explore the area
We stayed here to explore Karikari peninsula and all the beautiful beaches. Ninety mile beach, Houhora and surroundings. Perfect. And at the end of the day enjoy a nice fish and chips on the beach all within easy walking distance.

A microwave would be helpful and if you could stepping stones from the driveway to the deck would help to keep feet dry before entering house. Good otherwise.

A perfect wee bach!
The Miner's Cottage was spotlessly clean, comfortable and well appointed. The deck is an absolute bonus - we had all meals here, in sight of the sea. Property Manager David's communication was efficient and helpful.

Nice place,
Considerable road noise while sitting on the deck. Close to beach. Cleaning need a bit more attention in the cutlery drawer (crumse under utensils). Overall we were happy.

Tidy, small and contained, this property was very a relaxing place to be with a lovely seaview. It is a short walk to the beach. All neighbours were friendly too!
Thank you to the property manager for taking care of us too!
