Thank you Barbara! The accomodation was compact & nicely presented. It had everything we needed. It was secure & safe with the gated entry & exit. The front covered deck a lovely space to enjoy outdoor dining & the perfect spot for my Mum to read her book. The beds were comfy & the highlight was the community heated pool.

Great spot for a relaxing Mangawhai stay
It's a very comfortable bach for a Mangawhai stay. The bonus is the great heated pool and pleasant garden area adjacent to it to relax in. It's an easy walk to the village and all the offerings there.

Barb’s Cosy Cottage
An ideally located cosy cottage in an enclave of similar cottages - in the heart of Mangawhai village - suited perfectly our get away needs close to family that couldn’t accommodate us on their property!Occupants of other cottages were very respectful - and despite the cottage to cottage close proximity, noise was not an issue - all very peaceful - helped by Barb’s Cottage being at the rear of the enclave. Will stay again!

Barbs is a well kept property that suits two or four for short stay. Its a 7-10 min walk to shopping, entertainment and a drive to reach the beach. Being in a locked community it is quiet and feels safe. Barb was easy to deal with and helpful.The pool is a good temp for out of season swims.

We loved our stay here. The cabin has everything you need including aircon which we were very grateful for in the hot summer weather. The pool was our favourite feature and the other residents in the park were very friendly.

Great mini break spot for myself and two teens. Two bedrooms with comfortable beds and well equipped kitchen. Covered outdoor area was great for dining outside. Bonus extra is the heated pool which the teens loved. This property is a short walk to the Village for groceries, takeaways or a bit further to the Tavern for dinner. Bennetts chocolate factory is always on our go to list when visiting Mangawhai...only 6 mins walk. Overall this is a great property and situated at the back of the Mangawhai Park so quite peaceful.

Cosy cottage with everything you need, it was a lovely place to stay for our family. Laid-back atmosphere with a safe friendly environment for our 8-year-old to enjoy. Barb was lovely. Thanks so much for letting us stay.
