The comfort of the place was surprising and it wasn't cold at all. It was quirky having to go outside to the toilet and shower units.

Our host Alex was very pleasant to deal with, he was very helpful and accommodating to our needs. We received a lovely filling breakfast both mornings of our stay. The bed was very comfortable. The view is great. It has everything needed for a short stay away.

The unit is spacious and stylishly decorated. They provided everything you ever needed. The property and the unit is impeccably cleaned and fully equipped. You will not fall short of anything. They even provided you weetbix and porridge sachets. Very thoughtful. The amenities provided are of superior quality, they are not a bar of soap wrapped in plastic or shampoo in a small tube, they are all higher-grade products. Quite generous. The bed, sheets, linens, towels, and pillows are at their best. I had the best sleep ever. The view from the unit, which is on the hill, was stunning. The pictures shown at booked dot com are exactly what they are. Better in reality. Veronique, our host, is hospitable and welcoming. The two dogs, CoCo and Loki, are so kind, energetic, and playful. They guarded us around and didn’t make any disturbing noise at all. In all, it was a great stay. Thank you for offering such a wonderful place on Booking dot com.

    The museum was really good as we had heard of Norman MacLeod leading the Scots settlement, so good to see it so well presented. Thought the Celtic Barn was a good venue. Unfortunately we had limited time as we were attending a funeral but would have loved to have got out to the beach.

    Waipu is a interesting town as it has a uniquely Scottish history. The town has an excellent museum and a number of nice cafes and restaurants. a short drive and you have two very nice beach areas to relax those being Waipu Cove and Laings Beach with several good hikes in the area as well.

    Great place to step away from the hustle and bustle of city life and reconnect with nature a bit. Good food at the waipu cove pub, if a little pricey (the food is quite gourmet and the drink options were many)

    Waipu is a gorgeous beach settlement. There are good facilities available e.g essential shops, cafes, the restaurant bar down at the cove is a great spot and the food and service was great even though they were extremely busy

    A quite Town for a night or two night stay for a short weekend. Kids friendly pizza store and the waipu cave not too far but would recommend to have gumboots and Torch when visit with young kids. Waipu fall is a eazy 10 mis return track but the parking space is limited.

    New Years day markets & night Ceilidh (Scottish dance).

    New Years day markets & night Ceilidh (Scottish dance). Busy rural town. Lots happening. Great art gallery in the old firestation. Nice cafes. Shops all open on the weekend. Close to Whangarei & Langs/Waipu Cove etc. Waipu has it's own museum - worth a look. Free parking in the town. Seems to be very dog friendly.

    Everything, staff, amenities, location and Waipu itself. My partner, Graeme I have camped here and love it so this was an obvious stop off between Auckland and the far north. We will be back to camp over the New Years Eve weekend if a vacancy crops up (site 233 please🤣🙏)

    Absolutely adored the eclectic decor. The mid century furniture pieces, the art prints and knick knacks. The garden was stunning and provided a green canopy of calm and privacy. It was super close to Waipu and a great base for our surf comps.
