Stay just a tiny stroll from Matakana Markets in this two bedroom cottage.
With a great view of the Matakana River and surrounded by native bush, you’ll be in the most convenient location, and the most private setting.
With a full kitchen, and a BBQ, you can cook all your own meals, or simply wander in to town for your choice of restaurants, cafes, takeaways, cocktail bars, pubs, breweries, and bakeries.
The movies are a stone’s throw away for rainy days, but no matter the weather you’ll be serenaded by the sound of the waterfall directly below the house.
With aircon, double glazing, and lots of insulation, you’ll always be comfortable.
More photos will be added when current tenant vacates.
