The property

Wake up to the sound of birdsong, native bush, and the tranquillity of this peaceful rural cabin. Welcome to Totara Folly! Enjoy the privacy of this beautiful location, surrounded by covenanted native bush with plenty of outdoor space and lovely bush walks. It's perfect for a couple or small family, with comfortable furnishings and homely touches to have you feeling right at home. Although the cabin is just one big room (42 square metres) with an attached bathroom, it feels spacious and very liveable. There's a well-equipped kitchen with a fridge, microwave, two induction hobs, kettle and toaster, as well as additional freezer and storage space in the adjacent shed. The cabin opens out to a deck looking onto the large lawn and the surrounding forest canopy. The outdoor table and chairs are perfect for balmy summer evening sun-downers, with a BBQ for al fresco cooking and dining. The fully-fenced lawn is calling out for little feet to run around after a ball, or pull out the petanque set and have a game on the green! For winter stays, both an infrared wall heater and an electric oil-filled heater keep you toasty, while complimentary WiFi and a selection of books are on hand to keep you connected and entertained. The TV has Dish Smart TV, giving you Freeview access as well as access to your own Netflix and Neon accounts. Totara Folly is in an excellent spot for vineyard hopping! Brooke Lane Vineyard is just down the lane, and Millars Vineyard and Estuary Wines are are only moments away, ready to offer brilliant wine tasting surrounded by beautiful scenery. There's also pleasant walking around the lanes in this lovely area, and access to the Brynderwyn Range trails nearby. If you’re wanting to hit the beach, you're spoilt for choice. Mangawhai surf beach is a 14-minute drive away, the estuary offers great swimming for smaller kids, and venturing further afield you'll find other great local beaches like Langs Beach, Waipu Cove, or Te Arai Beach all within a half-hour drive. There is also ample space to park a boat here at Totara Folly, with the Mangawhai boat ramp just 11 minutes’ drive away to launch for a day on the water. Spend your next escape to Mangawhai at the wonderful Totara Folly!

While this property is pet friendly, cats are not permitted (resource consent condition). Dogs are not permitted into the adjacent fenced covenant area (i.e. the forest) as it is part of a kiwi zone. The property is fully fenced with a gate, so dogs may be left outside with the gate closed.

During the winter and after periods of particularly heavy rain it may not be possible to drive all the way to this cabin. Guests may need to park at the end of the metalled driveway and walk approximately 100m to the cabin.

The bathroom at this property is accessed externally via the deck.

Please be advised this property does not have an oven. A microwave, two portable induction hot plates, kettle and a toaster are available for guests to prepare meals.

As there are sections of the deck without a barrier with a small drop on to grass, all guests should take care when using this area due to the risk of falls.

Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.

About the location

Mangawhai is a thriving township located halfway between the Bay of Islands and Auckland. The village itself is bustling with great shops full of artisan goods, including the world famous in New Zealand Bennet's Chocolate, which is not to be missed! There's an epic surf beach catering to those who enjoy some wild waves, as well as numerous other bays and the harbor, which are safe for swimming, kayaking, relaxing or launching the boat. All of our Mangawhai Beach holiday homes are pre-inspected prior to your arrival and are ready for instant online booking.
