About this cottage rental
Bakery Cottage was built in the early 1920's by the Feist family who were the local bakers. She (definitely a she) is enchanting with polished wood floors and native timber wall sarking. Ideal for 2 couples to soak up her undeniable charm, chill out and enjoy all that beautiful Doubtless Bay has to offer. Start the day with a cup of tea on the verandah and enjoy the harbour view. Take a short walk to one of the cafes for breakfast and browse the shops, including the Flax Bush located next door. Spend the day at one of the numerous Doubtless Bay beaches within easy drive. End the day with a cocktail on the verandah followed by a bbq in the private courtyard at the rear of the cottage or walk to the Fish and Chip shop for dinner. Mangonui is an ideal place to stay if you are planning to visit Cape Reinga, its a day trip to the Cape and the evening can be spent at one of the numerous eateries. November 2020 in consultation with interior designer Kelly Ritchie the cottage was renovated. There is a new heritage style kitchen and bathroom with luxe vintage fittings. The living areas and bedrooms have been freshened and furnished to a high standard with beautiful local art. The courtyard has been revamped and is a cosy, private space, to gather in the cool during those hot Northland summer days. Special conditions: Rates are for 2 people, extra people are charged at $30 per person per night. Rates may vary during public holidays, please enquire. Smoking allowed outside only. Limited car parking at cottage - 1 vehicle only. Off site secure parking available for boats.

Pams lovely little cottage was such a treat to stay at! Beautifully designed and styled and with the morning view across the water, it was the perfect little getaway. We loved the pictures of the homes history and strolling along the boardwalk to the local cafes. It will be our first pick when we are back in Mangōnui

The Old Bakery Cottage is beautifully renovated, close to all amenities and a comfortable place to stay. The view from the front over cable bay is stunning! Unfortunately the weather was truly awful wet and windy - until the day we left. Pam thoughtfully left our key at the front to save us a thorough soaking retrieving from around the back- thank you Pam. Would thoroughly recommend.Jim and Vicki, Australia

Pam was so great. Easy communication, clear check in instructions and the cottage is absolutely BEAUTIFUL.It's been done in keeping with the era of it's time, and no expense spared on the fittings and decor. It was warm, Cody and the proximity to the water is fabulous. The sunrise was amazing. I absolutely loved my stay and cannot wait to come back again. Probably one of the best Bookabach places I've stayed. red.

The Old Bakery Cottage is simply delightful. It's a very beautiful little cottage that is superbly furnished and fitted out for a perfect few days stay. It could feature in 'House and Garden' as it's so perfectly decorated.It was lovely to meet Pam the property manager who was so welcoming, and very easy to contact for any queries we might have. We loved our two days at the cottage and could have happily stayed a few more days. 10/10 for sure. :)

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, taking in dusk over the bay with cocktails from the sunroom, and doing the easy walk into the village for kai. The house was really well equipped with everything we needed, and was in immaculate condition. Would definitely recommend and would search it out if we're in the area again.

Stayed here last year which is why i was happy to find it available again for my northland holiday this time. I love this gorgeous cottage. Lovely, right down to its owner. Pam is an absolutely amazing host. The very best. Location is unbetable. Close to town but not right in it, a short picturesque board walk al9ng the shore front sees you into the shopping area. Returned home in cruise mode and fully restored. Huge thanks to Pam.

Only stayed one night, so disappointed that we hadn’t booked for longer. A beautiful home, really well thought out. The village was great too with art galleries, restaurants and lovely shops. A great find. Thank you.

Lovely place to stay so nice to have all facilities available. Beds extremely comfortable and to have two equally sized bedrooms. Decor was specially attractive. High quality. Close to shops. Manonui is a unique place to stay I really love being there. Only issue a microwave would be useful and spiderwebs on light in sitting room. I would love to come back again.

We loved our stay in Bakery Cottage so much that we extended by a couple of days. It is a spacious and well equipped cottage that we immediately felt at home in. Pam was extremely helpful and made our stay really enjoyable.

Pam’s place was perfect for our short stay near Cooper’s Beach. The indoor and outdoor space are both amazing. The view of the water is so peaceful and calming. Walking distance to excellent eateries and quaint little shops, and a short drive to the beach. Pam was very helpful and very prompt responding to our questions.

Hi Pam.
Your cottage is lovely and has a magnificent vibe. Alan and I and Vicki, a good friend visiting from Vietnam, enjoyed the view out over the harbour (indeed quite inspirational for me, since I'm a composer and used the occasion to sit in the sun room and finish a score). The kitchen was well equipped, and we created some lovely meals (even though I say so myself!)
We will be back!

We had the most amazing stay - the property was absolutely beautiful, well equipped and in such a wonderful location. Easy walk to cafes and restaurants, right across the road from the water and the perfect place just to sit outside, relax and enjoy the view.
Easy check-in process and great communication with the host. Absolutely recommend and hope to return!

The cottage was everything plus. Tidy, warm, cosy, peaceful and really tastefully decorated. Very relaxing indeed. Our host was really fast at communicating and helped direct us to a few local artists to check out. Absolutely will be staying here again. Came home feeling restored :)

The property is beautiful, has a gorgeous view of the water, has everything you need and is a short walk to the shops. The beds are very comfortable, and i especially loved sitting in the enclosed porch with a cuppa watching the world go by.

This outstanding home is brimming with comfort, beauty, aesthetics, and personality. It was so delightful that we spent more time there (inside and outside on the porches and courtyard) than we had intended, and prolonged our stay. Owner Pam was a delight to deal with from beginning to end. We’re already discussing our next stay. Two enthusiastic thumbs up!
