Best hotel meals around with an extensive menu of tasty foods produced from the adjoining kitchen of the PepperTree Restaurant. Just sitting in this 1896 building takes you back in time ... Coromandel’s icon and it’s right next door on your left from your front door .

A Memorable Adventure

Add these to your days out and about on the Coromandel Peninsula.
One mans dream “Barry Brickell” to build a railway for clay collection has now turned into the greatest and most infamous journey for locals and tourists alike . The train will take you up to the Eyeful Tower that extends views across the waters of the Hauraki Gulf towards Auckland and Whangarei North. The zip line has recently been added that travels over our native stand forest . A must visit stepping back in time ... less than 5 mins drive from your cottage.

You could spend half your day here .. One mans idea to build everything using water. Eccentric and entrepreneurial. This place has Awards to its name, is based on the 309 Road and only 10 mins drive away from your cottage. . Oh I nearly forgot to add the friendly Wild Pigs that roam the 309 road. They are all owned by Stu . He feeds and loves his pigs dearly with each one having a name. If you like, just stop and Stu will be there unless he’s gone shopping for more food! He appreciates coin donations to help keep them healthy. Definitely a local icon ..

Beaches

Hot Water Beach on the East Coast. A small spade can be hired from the local shop at hot water beach for a small fee. Make sure you go at low tide, 1 hour either side of low tide is best. Please take care if you go out swimming as there is a rip. Swim between flags .
It’s true! Make a pool in the sand and watch it fill up with hot water. Approximately 1 1/4hr drive from your cottage.

I love the journey to here and the beaches . There are two as you come down into Waitete Bay. The first one is my favourite but both are very nice depending on what you prefer . This is on the west coast dotted with islands and only 20 mins drive from your cottage
