About this house rental

Please note for New Years bookings you must ENQUIRE first before booking as we have different requirements for this period.
Perched on top of a hill and set on 10 Acres of bush you will find Hilltop Retreat!
This huge family home offers panoramic views over the Brynderwyn ranges, surrounding hills and countryside and distant views of Mangawhai and the Ocean - all only 5 minutes drive from Mangawhai Village AND Mangawhai Heads shops and our beautiful beach.
Here your group has total privacy and is ideal for 2 families or larger groups who want to get together for a peaceful holiday away from the hustle and bustle but still very close to the shops cafes and all else that Mangawhai has to offer.
Whether you are coming for a summer break (beach is down the road or try sunbathing in privacy on the upper deck!) or a winter break (relax by the fire and enjoy a lovely winters meal and a few wines at the massive dining table) Hilltop Retreat will suit your needs.
Hilltop Retreat is purposely priced to be affordable for smaller groups but is also great value for larger groups too.
LINEN OPTIONS: To keep your holiday more affordable, for this property we offer linen as an optional extra for guests who prefer to bring their own. If you choose to bring your own linen, you will need to supply top and bottom sheets, pillowcases, towels and bath mats. Pillows, Duvets and Duvet covers will be provided.
Alternatively, a rental linen package is available for $25 per person. To request this service, please add a note to your booking specifying the number of people requiring linen and which beds you would like prepared.
BOOKING PAYMENT: Although your credit card details are taken during the booking process, we won't automatically charge your credit card. Once your booking is approved we will send you a payment email with a choice of credit card payment (a 3% surcharge applies) or bank transfer (no charges).

    Large and comfortable. Very clean inside. The price is very reasonable so we didn't expect flash and pristine and it's not. But it was just right for our large extended family with little children. Very private and Charlene from the booking agency (Bach Stay) is friendly and accommodating. 4 rather than 5 stars because although there seemed to be nothing overflowing, there was a strong unpleasant sewerage smell out the back.

    House was perfect for our group of three families. The kids loved building a hut in the bush and kept them really busy. Will be back
    10.0 / 10.0
    Huge space with lots of hangout areas. Plenty of space for kids or different groups to do their own thing. Good functional kitchen for those big shared meals. Had a great stay with friends.

    Lovely large house. Foozball was a hit. Great spacious kitchen with everything you need. Hot water in shower is impacted if someone is using the other shower, but apart from that we had an excellent stay. Fire was lovely.

    Comfortable well-equipped large house about 10 mins out of town. Situated on hill ensuring beautiful views from top storey. Especially appreciated it being pet friendly.
    8.0 / 10.0
    The house is a great size for extended family with areas where we could all be together but also enough space to be apart and do our own thing when we felt like it We all really enjoyed our stay!
