We really enjoyed our visit. The setting is spectacular, it would be hard to find a better view. Peter and Wendi are great hosts. The birds come right to the birdbath and are amazing.

Magical Getaway

Beautifully situated in an area where NZ wildlife surrounds you in full privacy. The views are spectacular and the surrounding beaches are amazing - Boulder Bay was great for snorkeling and it had a lovely bush walk to get to. I highly recommend for anyone who is looking for a relaxing holiday away from their busy lives - never been more relaxed in my life ever!

We loved our stay here! The cabin has everything you could need for your stay. There is a short walk down to the beach nearby, with amazing rock pools at low tide. We were visited by Tūī, kererū and heard some kākā in the area!

A must stay!

We had a 2 night stay-Wendy helped us take our gear to the cabin, told us about the amenities, the surrounds etc Everything is there to stay very comfortably. Decor is cool and the view-magnificent. I couldn't/didn't want to sleep because the night sky was amazing. I can truly say, we loved it! Wanted to stay longer!

Fabulous break in the tree tops

Best view from the bed. Our hosts Pete and Wendy were absolutely gorgeous. We had the best time ever. Break from the hustle and bustle, loved being amongst the tree canopy and getting to know the local bird life. Property is immaculate, perfect place to wind down. This place doesn't disappoint and is way cooler than we expected. We loved it.

A "must book" listing

An absolutely perfect stay. It's a no-brainer to visit this charming and beautiful house in the hills. Well, only if you like very cool hosts, stunning views, a gorgeous vantage for many varieties of local birds, warm and colourful skies at sunset and an unpolluted view of the stars at night. We had a wonderful time- to say the least. I wish we lived closer. I'm going to do my darnedest to visit again! XoThanks a million for having us!

Best little secret of the Coromandel

Pete's place is a lovely hideaway nestled in beautiful native bush. The house is cute and quirky with amazing views from the deck and bed! Per the description, there are a number of stairs from the car to the house through the bush, so pack lightly (it's not terrible, but you wouldn't want to carry the kitchen sink). There are a few lovely walks to do from the house including down to their local stony beach, and a wonderful sandy beach only 5-10 mins drive away. Bathroom facilities are in immaculate condition, kitchen is well kitted out, and Pete was a wonderful host. We stayed 2 nights, but could have easily stayed 4 or more to really settle in and explore the area.

Divine bach experience

Peter and Wendy were wonderful hosts from the get-go and helped guide and direct us towards the bach with complete ease. They also helped us load our belongings into the bach for the short walk up to the bach! The bach itself is beyond serene - fully equipped with every little thoughtful thing to make the guests feel more welcome, at home, and comfortable! We absolutely loved the whole experience right from the start to the end. The sounds of the birds, the scenic view from every window at the property, and the absolute sense of peace was the perfect way to get a little escape and taste the beauty of NZ. Would a 100% recommend this spot to any nature lover or just anyone looking to restore themselves from the daily hustle of every day life!
