    The owner/operator is friendly and personable. Nothing was a problem to her and the rural location is both private and peaceful. The unit was clean, well-equipped and comfortable and the price was very reasonable for the standard of accommodation.

    We loved the rural location and the very scenic drive to it. Bed was comfortable and a well equipped kitchenette, which was perfect for us to make our tea. We appreciated all the extra personal touches...Josie had the accommodation warm for us...

We offer a comfortable self contained cottage with an outside covered seating area, rural views over farms, hills and valleys. The Hen House is located in our sunny, peaceful and tranquil gardens surrounded by natural bush with views of the hens and vegetable gardens. We offer off road parking and a warm welcome. We are a 15 minute drive from the many cafe's in Warkworth and are along country roads.
We are keen gardeners who enjoy meeting people from around the world. We grow organic vegetables, our hens are free range and we are passionate about reducing plastic and helping to improve our environment
There are local rural walks plus the township of Warkworth offers a range of delightful cafes along the Mahurangi riverside. Goat Island; The Sculptureum and Farmers Market and quirky cinema of Matakana; Tawhanui Regional Park and a range of beaches are all some of the delights that are within easy driving distances.
