Not quite what we're after
Clean, crisp, cozy, and friendly hosts. But just not quite what we're after. Room for improvement with a screen door, rather than a shower curtain to mitigate the stormy weather for privacy in the outdoor shower/toilet. And clearer description that there aren't any cooking or kitchen facilities in the cabin; we'd planned to cook a quiet meal on site, so instead had to go into the city to eat. Perhaps a little outdoor bench with a gas cooker next to the outdoor table and chairs? The place was very small, but cozy. But we'd really been after something completely isolated and not across from the house and carport. Please note, the hosts were great and giving us complete privacy, but it was just not quite what we were after.

Wonderful
The property is clean, cosy, quiet, and has amazing views. The room is very comfortable. The hosts are super kind and polite. It is as advertised - rainwater, outdoor bathroom, one bedroom with basic kitchen etc. We would definitely recommend for couples and hope to return. The in room guest book is filled with messages from people who have loved staying here. The animals are a bonus and the bird songs are beautiful.

Rustic cabin in rural setting
Cabin was exceptionally clean, hosts were welcoming. Aged in our 70’s we were not so keen on having to go outside to use the bathroom, although it too was very clean. Overnight rain made the journey to have a shower a little awkward.

Great location
I stayed here for two nights in February 2023 after the cyclone, so no power and many road slips. However Kate was very friendly and accommodating. It's a great spot overlooking farm/grazing land, and hard to believe only a few minutes from Whangārei. I would stay here again.
