MINIMUM 7 NIGHT STAY FOR GUEST POINTS - NON-NEGOTIABLE
Shorter stays for Swaps considered.
Calendar not updated often.

Situated in leafy Parnell, one of Auckland's most desirable suburbs, our architect designed home is a charming and convenient place to stay while visiting Auckland. Nestled amongst mature palms and trees, the house is screened from the street. Step in the front door, through the original rooms of the cottage into the new living areas, and the ambience changes from cosy to contemporary. Ceilings are high (3.3m), rooms are spacious, light floods in and the sunny garden beckons.
Bi-fold doors open directly into the private courtyard and garden, providing perfect indoor/outdoor living.
The house sits among mature trees which further enhance the feeling of privacy and tranquility. The front garden of subtropical palms and mature Pohutukawa trees, screens the house from the street. In summer fresh veggies are available from the garden.
Featured in New Zealand House & Garden, May 2010.

Nearby there are many parks and gardens to explore in Parnell: Auckland Domain (Museum and Winter Gardens), Parnell Rose Gardens and Judges Bay, pathways and board-walk around Hobson Bay, at the end of our street. Another local attraction is Parnell's Holy Trinity Cathedral. Of special interest are its modern vibrant stained glass windows reflecting the history of New Zealand. 2.9km walk to University of Auckland.

Britomart Precinct (shopping and restaurants) and Auckland's newest waterfront precinct, the Wynard Quarter, are a 7 minute drive or a 15 minute bus trip away. Newmarket is our closest shopping area: Teed and Osborne streets are best for NZ fashion and design stores.

​Auckland has 48 volcanic cones giving the city a unique landscape. Stroll up Mt Eden for spectacular panoramic views of Auckland City and harbours. Especially beautiful at twilight. There are lots of good cafes and restaurants in nearby Mt Eden village.

Under an hour's drive from the city are Auckland's Wild West Coast beaches. Piha is our favourite, with its iconic Lion Rock. The dramatic landscape is captivating in both summer and winter. For art lovers Brick Bay Wines and Sculpture Trail at Warkworth is worth a visit: it takes an hour approx to drive to there.

Catching the ferry to Waiheke Island from is another popular day excursion. It leaves from the downtown Ferry Terminal.
