    Perfect location and accommodation to unwind and relax sitting on the deck watching the tide and the birds. Cottage was well equipped and shortbread was excellent. Lovely hosts.

    Such a beautiful location! I was in awe of the view and the sunset was incredible. Super tidy and had lots of lovely extra touches like homemade shortbread cookies. Hosts were very lovely and helpful. Exceeded my expectations!

    Clean and comfortable and right on the bay. Enjoyed watching the gentle rise and fall of the tides and a great sunset. A unique location that is well worth the stay!

    The uniqueness of the boat house along with the hospitality of the hosts exceeded expectation. And the location just outside Coromandel City was ideal for a quiet stay but close to activities, restaurants and shops.

    Situated right on the estuary it is a superb place to view the birds going about their lives. Easy to find and Liz left some treats in the kitchen which were delicious.

    Tranquil little piece of paradise. It would be even more stunning if the weather played ball a bit more. But no complaints here! Liz and Nev are great, and we certainly enjoyed Liz's culinary treats.

The chalet is on the edge of Coromandel Harbour and is tidal. We have wonderful bird life, including oyster catches, spoonbills, terns, ducks and many others. The views from the private jetty are of Wanganui Island, Te Kouma and Wyuna Bay.
We are a recently retired couple, our nearby house , and the chalet were built in 2015. We have lived in Coromandel for more than 40 years, having had the pharmacy there, so can give you lots of tips on travelling around the peninsula.
We are a five minute drive( 3.7 km ) from Coromandel Town, on SH 25 towards Thames, 15 mins to the Water Works, or Castle Rock. The Driving Creek Railway is a must-do experience in Coromandel. It is a 10 minute drive away. Coromandel Town, is a unique town, having been built mostly in the gold mining era of the late 1800s, there are many historic buildings.
