Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Northland

On point. The house was stocked with everything you need for a really enjoyable time. Location second to none. Made for a very relaxing holiday to recharge for the time ahead. Thank you for opening your home up to us. We would love to come back. Doggies say thank you too 🤗

If you love waking up to incredible views, having a coffee(supplied by the host) sitting on beautiful outdoor furniture and dining in a room with a view please don't miss this place. And speaking of dining this is the best outfitted kitchen I have ever seen in an Airbnb. Superb.

What an amazing place this is. The views are incredible and the house itself is beautiful. Felt very lucky to stay here. Thank you Peter!

From the moment we arrived, the experience felt like an adventure. The long, scenic driveway set the tone, leading up to a charming vintage-style house on a vast, lush property surrounded by paddocks and trees. The location is incredibly private—perfect for a peaceful retreat in the Far North. A lovely walking track takes you to the lake, adding to the property’s charm. The house is spacious and well-equipped, featuring a powerful shower, a dishwasher, and a free-to-use washing machine and dryer. There’s also an outdoor BBQ, WiFi, and a TV with Sky, Netflix, Disney+, and more. The kitchen has everything you need, including a great oven and stove. The beds are comfortable, and the home has all the essentials for a relaxing stay. To top it off, the host is fantastic—always available if needed but respectful of privacy.

Monica is a warm and gracious host and we loved having the opportunity to enjoy this beautiful home. It is an impressive Americal style country house, showcasing fascinating treasures. The living area is warm and welcoming, with large windows providing beautiful country panoramas. All rooms have interesting nooks to relax in and the attractive, fully equipped kitchen and bathrooms are wonderfully functional.

Wonderful place with the most amazing views of the beach. The large deck was great and sheltered from the winds. We had a great time and really enjoyed the space. Very close to accessing the beach for 90mile or to get across the rocks at Shippies. Would come again with friends.

We had a great weekend trip away at Bobba’s Bach, it was exactly what we wanted for our family of 7. Peaceful and private, with room for all of us, and didn’t feel squished. Was suitable for young children too with big back yard, and walking distance to Russel and other surroundings. We will definitely be back next summer.

We had a wonderful time staying at Karl’s beautiful home. And what a home! In the best way possible, it’s like staying in an amazing museum as well as being very comfortable and very clean. Karl was fantastic to deal with. We left a jacket behind by mistake and Karl immediately notified us of this and arranged to have it couriered (so sorry for the inconvenience Karl but thank you for being so kind!). The last thing I’ll say is the house has prime location - the sunsets we experienced were something life changing! Great place and would highly recommend.

We love staying at the Gables Apartment . Beautiful location on the waterfront . Apartment is well appointed and very comfortable Perfect retreat to restore the soul Kelly is a wonderful host very helpful and accommodating

The photo's on the website do not do this home justice. It was beautiful, with a rustic twist. Everything was supplied, all bedding with linen, spare blankets and the most comfortable beds, towels and all toiletries, we didn't need to unpack much from our bags. Peaceful, quiet rural property that was easy to find and good communication with our hosts. I highly recommend this property and will be back again.

Incredible spot immersed in nature; we had an amazing stay!

This accomodation is full of personality and it is an interesting and enjoyable space to be in . While the Dairy Factory is an old building ,all the surfaces are freshly painted ,clean and well cared for. The fresh flowers and produce bring a welcoming touch .I will definitely recommend and will definitely return with the team I work with.Many thanks Sue

The place is amazing, very large living area with many very clean and decently spaced rooms. I wasn’t aware of the 5-10 minute gravel road the house is on. Daniel was amazing at communicating when I need to get in touch with him however the packing up procedure could have been outlined better, but other than that the four informative emails sent outlined everything needed for our stay. The view is just as amazing in person as the photos both sunrise and sunset, especially lounging in the spa.

We had a 6 day family Christmas Holiday here and it couldn't have been nicer. Daniel and Angela met us when we arrived and explained the various systems such as pool, TV, internet, etc. They were available nearby in case we needed them (which turned out we did not), but did not intrude in our privacy. The actual facilities were even nicer than the photos and descriptions provided in the AirBnB listing. One of the special things about this home displayed was the care and art that the hosts have put into it. Everything is amazing. It is ultra-private and it seems as if you are alone in the forest overlooking a beautiful valley. The view from the upstairs master suite is awesome. Our two grandkids spent hours each day in this nice, clean, warm pool. The pool - patio area was well done and relaxing for lounging between swims. . I would HIGHLY recommend this property and hosts.

This is an amazing spot for family gatherings, the house is beautiful and large, with many spaces to gather or be private if you needed a minute. it's extremely well appointed with everything you could want. the kitchen is very well equipped. there's a separate dining, a large lounge, and the balcony has a large table to gather around the reserve and view of the bay. the town centre is walkable, with a gorgeous bushwalk up to flagstaff hill. Bernise was a wonderful host, sorted all our random questions and made us feel so welcome. you will be so happy you booked this place! don't hesitate.

Five adults and six children had a wonderful weekend in Mangawhai, using Carolynn's house as our base. There was plenty of space for everyone to find their own corner, both inside and out. The kitchen was big enough for several cooks to work in at once and the dining table was big enough for us to all sit around so mealtimes were a treat, not a chore. Amazing view to the east, including sunrise across water and moonscape sand dunes. The spa at the end of the day was a special treat for our family, as was the large TV screen in the lounge. We missed a few books and board games but everything else was in good supply. Thank you for a special long weekend with my family Carolynn.

A beautiful home that was well equipped for a busy Christmas Day with family. The outlook was simply breathtaking. We enjoyed the alfresco areas, playing pétanque and finding the tree swing. A simply beautiful retreat to relax and unwind.

beautiful and quiet surroundings. Highly recommended

Incredible location and home for a large group looking to spend time together. We were four adult couples and two toddlers. The space was perfect, having a bunk room and separate lounge for the little ones with enough bathrooms and privacy in different zones around the house. Direct beach access, quick walk to the local shop, cafe, playground and surfclub. Can't wait to come back!

We had the most beautiful stay at Shaileshs place. The views are amazing, epic sunsets and sunrises. It’s super peaceful with the sounds of nature all around you! We held a family event at the property and everything was perfectly set up for entertaining. Shailesh was a wonderful host, they super responsive and helpful, and even left very thoughtful touches which made our stay even more special. Would definitely recommend this property and host!
