Excellent bush retreat

Positioned just outside the village of Titirangi which offers everything you need shops, cafes, restaurants and lovely gallery. Easy access to many walking tracks and beaches. We had a great stay, sitting on the balcony looking out at the extensive views across the harbour.Our hosts were lovely, friendly and accommodating, very hospitable.

Family holiday

Perfect location for our stay while visiting family. The unit was warm, and had everything we needed for our stay. The view was picturesque, beautiful! The only thing that could do with replacement is the shower rose, but this is just a suggestion.

Titirangi Experience

Warm welcome to an excellent well equipt and designed apartment. An ideal location for accessing the famous Waitakere Ranges and the West Coast Beaches. The view from the deck was outstanding with birds a plenty. All our needs were met and our hosts Sandra and Michael were available if and when needed, we will definately be returning in the future.

Wonderful Accomodations!

The pictures don’t do this place justice. The views are amazing and the home was more than enough space for my adult daughter & myself. Sandra was a wonderful host who always answered my phone calls and came down to help immediately when needed. Her husband was also kind and helpful with suggestions on things to do and places to go. I will caution anyone who is not used to it like myself…..there is quite a bit of mountain driving but they have nothing to do with that, I just didn’t expect it. I loved their home and the way that they hosted us.

Very Nice Hosts. Have Everything We need. Spacious and All the Little Touch.

Michael and Sandra are wonderful hosts. This is the second time we stayed there. Both time exceeded our expectation. We do need a car but the location is brilliant as it is away from the business of city, the view of sunrise and sunset, there are restaurants and eateries within driving distance of 5 minutes, there are walking tracks nearby, all the little touches just make our stay a memorable one.

We stayed 3 weeks in this amazing establishment. A beautiful property, with a gorgeous view of the Manukau Harbour off the lovely porch / verandah. Inside is modern, clean, with so much space. Chique-ly decorated with nice furnishings and art. We felt so at home there. The owners are lovely people, friendly and easy to communicate with. "Lopdell House" is a stylish friendly and very spacious cafe with great coffee and food. Also there is a great Indian restaurant in Titirangi called the, "Titirangi Indian Kitchen" where the food was notably delicious and the staff are a kind and personable team. I have never had such a good Korma in my life. This accomodation is 5 star.

Beautiful views, abundant bird life and great location.

Titirangi cottage is well equipped with everything that is needed for a great stay. It was lovely to see the Californian Quail, Wood pigeons and Fantails. Eventhough the owners were overseas we really appreciated the communication and thoughtfulness making sure we were comfortable in their cottage. Thankyou for a memorable stay. All the best.

Fantastic spot and great hosts!

Great place to stay and Sandra and Michael are wonderful hosts. My partner and I stayed here for two weeks and the place is well equipped, clean, comfortable and very peaceful with a beautiful view. A perfect little spot, private deck to enjoy the sun and the scenery. Would highly recommend. As an added bonus there are some walking trails at the end of the drive and it’s a nice stroll into Titirangi. We look forward to staying here again!

We really enjoyed our weekend here. Great place to stay if you want a quiet weekend away. We had plans on a venture of the Waitakere Ranges but given the weather we decided to stay in and watch Te Matatini which was great. The bed was not the best given our mature age and there was a strong odour going through the flat that we needed to the dehumidifier everyday for.
