Private getaway in Mangawhai Heads
Escape to our tranquil spot in magical Mangawhai surrounded by stunning views and a few minutes drive to the Heads beach and some of Mangawhai’s best spots.
On offer is our cabin which contains :
• Shower and toilet
• 2-seater couch
• Google TV
• Fan
• Basic kitchen (bar fridge with small freezer, microwave, toaster, kettle with crockery and cutlery)
and a separate unit next to the cabin (accessed from the deck):
• Double bed
• Fan
Let the sunlight flood the whole space on a sunny day, or enjoy the soothing sounds of rain on the roof as you stay snug inside. Step outside to your private deck, perfect for soaking up the fresh air while enjoying a morning coffee or soaking in the sunset.
Situated up the driveway, away from the main house, you'll have all the privacy you need to escape your normal day to day! But we’re contactable if you need anything – we’re here to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
There's plenty of parking available, making it easy for you to come and go as you please.
Whether you're looking for a cozy hideaway or a base to explore the beautiful Mangawhai area, this tiny house is ready to welcome you.
Some of what Mangawhai has to offer that is right on our doorstep :
• Mangawhai Heads town (3 min drive): Enjoy the convenience of being close to the charming Mangawhai Heads town, just minutes away. Explore its cafes, restaurants, and boutique shops, all within easy reach.
• Mangawhai Heads Beach & Cliff Walk (6 min drive): This is a beautiful beach and scenic cliff walks. Called ‘Magical Mangawhai’ largely because of this area in our opinion!
• Tanekaha Walking Track (7 min drive): Choose from four tracks or just relax at the base with a picnic basket, or a short walk to the first waterfall where you can cool off in the swimming hole.
• Mangawhai Activity Zone (5min drive): This is a great place for families. They have Northlands best Skatepark and Kaiparas best outdoor zone!

Great country views over the valley.Host very quick to respond.Things to watch out for: The cabin is a converted "trailer", with separate cabin for sleeping, which isn't clear. There is NO shelter from rain in either of these (with no awning/outdoor cover) making it weather dependent.
