It's proximity to Auckland Airport and city centre gives the Cottage a near perfect location for the single businessman or woman. It is also the ideal romantic place for any couple wanting to spend a few days in New Zealand largest city.

The old village of Onehunga (Centre of Auckland 160 years ago) is just a few minutes walk.. and if you like Rugby, it is 10 minutes from the All Black 'temple' of Eden Park!
The Cottage has a large garden and enjoys a sunny and quiet location facing the Manukau Harbour villages and beaches and the surrounding are home to many native bird species.
