Location, excellent, nice and quiet, not far from Matakana and Warkworth .. we enjoyed our welcome to Hen House.. was a great place to use as a base to explore an area of NZ we’ve never been to..
All good, although we found the bed a little hard.. we found cooking difficult as we have never used a microwave, also the electric frypan did not have sensitive controls

Quiet rural location with beautiful garden setting views and landscape beyond. Chickens were quietly clucking away in their pen on our arrival and the cottage was super clean and homely. Josie, the host, was lovely and happy to assist with any questions or requests, didn't need the latter as everything was thought of already.

Comfortable, clean, and beautiful cabin. My son and I had a wonderful night. He loved the garden and the chickens. We hope to come again next time!

The Hen House is a terrific little getaway place, especially if you are a fan of chickens! The unit is a good-size stand-alone cabin on the property, out in the country (the wop-wops, for kiwis, boonies for Canadians). The grounds are terrific – flowers, native plants, a chicken coop (naturally), some funky artwork on the back fence, etc. The hospitality was very welcoming. It was slightly challenging to get there, in that the last few miles of road are a bit rough, but it’s well worth the banging about. We’d go back in a minute.
Nothing.

We had the privilege of staying here for the night and we absolutely loved our stay. Thank you so much for having us Josie, you were so welcoming and so lovely. Would recommend this place 100 times over if you're after a little get away with hubby or even alone, it is so peaceful and quiet. Such a lovely little spot to relax at. We loved having a wee break away from reality in this cute, cozy cottage.

Most tranquil, the perfect spot to relax in, away from the city. Lovely panorama of farmland, with only sheep and hens to listen to. Very comfortably furnished little cabin, plenty of hot water, great WiFi. The hosts were superb. The hens are delightful!
We loved it, will be back when we can.
Not really a problem, but we had to watch driving on the metal road when arriving, as there were potholes but we're given the heads up by the hosts beforehand.
Upon leaving, the potholes had been fixed, so no issues.

This stay was just beautiful! It made our trip! The hosts were very lovely and attentive.
The place is outstanding for what you pay. The view is phenomenal and it is so serene and quiet. The place is very clean and all the little extra thoughtful touches make it special. From the locally sourced milk to the chocolates and natural bathroom products it was very thoughtful. It was also very eco conscious is great! We loved that it was attached to the hens house literally as we love animals! It was close enough to the airport by car also.

Nice studio with everything you need for a short stay, either for work or romantic holiday ;) fresh and tidy, quiet. Internet access via wifi, was fast enough for my video conference calls, when I tested it with speed test dot net it was 30 Mbps down and 14 Mbps up.
Friendly hosts made me welcome, we had a good chat about hens, recovering bush and many other things ;)
Love the place, want to visit again!

A lovely little cottage set amongst rolling hills just a short drive out of Warkworth. It was very cozy and all the little attentions to detail were really lovely
