Family Favourite
We enjoyed the slow pace of life in this well loved family home. The grounds are perfect for children and the location ideal for those wishing to explore the many beaches, and harbours in the Bay of Islands. The large fridge, oven and BBQ are a bonus.

Picturesque cottage at great location!
We had such a lovely stay at Wisteria Cottage & pictures do not do it justice! Everything we needed for a great stay & enjoyed the beach & beautiful hike nearby.
Lots of room indoors & out, and ocean is close enough to hear the waves to gently lull you to sleep at night.
Would definitely come back!

Beautiful home and location
We loved our holiday in Mahinepua. The home was perfect for our family with great kitchen and bathroom facilities. The weather was perfect and the home was nice and cool when you wanted to escape the heat outside.

Relaxed in Mahinapua
We had an amazing few days relaxing in this fabulous property just 2 mins walk from the beach and a beautiful peninsular track giving fabulous views over he surrounding area..
An exceptionally well presented classic homestead kept to the highest standards - an absolutely wonderful place to kick back, relax and enjoys some downtime.
Vicki was amazing host, responded to questions almost immediately and extremely accommodating.
We couldn't ask for more - just a perfect break from the hustle of city life.
