The Abbey - Gorgeous Living In the Village

Modern french inspired decor and a huge Master bedroom, plus another double bedroom, full kitchen, modern bathroom, separate laundry and additional toilet, dining/sitting room and a very sunny separate lounge which has a big private deck, perfect for entertaining in the evening.

Take some time out to stroll along the esplanade reserve and listen to the abundant birdlife, or take a relaxing dip in the clear waters of Whangateau Harbour. Enjoy an old style feed of fresh fish and chips followed by a rolled icecream from the Point Wells General Store on the corner. Perhaps take the cycle trail to Omaha or Matakana. There are indoor games and books for wet days.

Great post, fantastic location
The property is great for a small family looking to experience what the area has to offer. It's a short drive from most places and a stones throw to a great store that does burgers, fish and chips etc. Andrew was great to communicate with, very much recommend this house!

Great property with helpful friendly hosts, who responded quickly to couple of small things. Very secluded, close to the shop and water. Comfy beds and great layout for hanging out. Top notch.

Tranquil Location
Very spacious and loved the tranquil quiet location and easy walk to the Point Wells reserve. Not far to drive to Omaha Beach and Matakana. General Store just a few steps away which does a great coffee from local Matakana beans.
