Welcome to Our Lifestyle Block in Beautiful Mangawhai & Te Arai!
Thank you for checking out our profile. We are Mike, myself, and our friendly dog Pinot, and we’d love to welcome you to our home on a lifestyle block just 1.5 hours north of Auckland. Nestled in the popular countryside on the outskirts of Mangawhai and Te Arai, our property offers a tranquil escape close to the stunning eastern coastline and beaches. Mangawhai’s charming cafes and shops are only a 10-minute drive away, perfect for a coffee run or picking up supplies.

Mangawhai, a coastal gem in New Zealand, is renowned for its stunning beaches, popular surfing spots, lagoon-style harbor, and expansive sand dunes.
Highlights:
Mangawhai Cliffs Walkway: A picturesque 4.5-kilometer trail offering breathtaking views from its lookout points. The area also features various hikes suitable for all fitness levels.
Bennetts Chocolate Shop and Factory: A must-visit destination for chocolate lovers.
The name "Mangawhai" is derived from Māori traditions, referencing the stingrays that inhabit the harbor. In the early 1800s, Chief Te Whai resided in the Mangawhai Harbour area, contributing to its rich cultural heritage.
Having your own transport is necessary for getting around.
