The Abbey - Gorgeous Living In the Village

This funky converted church hall set in subtropical gardens in the heart of one of the most Kiwiana villages left in New Zealand is located midway between Omaha and Matakana.

Modern french inspired decor and a huge Master bedroom, plus another double bedroom, full kitchen, modern bathroom, separate laundry and additional toilet, dining/sitting room and a very sunny separate lounge which has a big private deck, perfect for entertaining in the evening.

Take some time out to stroll along the esplanade reserve and listen to the abundant birdlife, or take a relaxing dip in the clear waters of Whangateau Harbour. Enjoy an old style feed of fresh fish and chips followed by a rolled icecream from the Point Wells General Store on the corner. Perhaps take the cycle trail to Omaha or Matakana. There are indoor games and books for wet days.

Portacot and Highchair available on request Smoking outside only

Great post, fantastic location

The property is great for a small family looking to experience what the area has to offer. It's a short drive from most places and a stones throw to a great store that does burgers, fish and chips etc. Andrew was great to communicate with, very much recommend this house!

Lovely spot

Lovely spot, nice and quiet, spacious. Central to Omaha, Matakana, Goat Island. Nice comfortable beds Everything you need. Linen was provided but only 1 towel per person, I would suggest taking more linen. Great if a few more towels were provided. Also the fridge and kitchen cupboards had hand and food marks all over them which wasn't very pleasant to arrive to. Otherwise everything else was tidy
