Welcome to the Ploughman's Cottage - the original Ploughman's cottage on our farm. This delightful cottage is situated amongst a cottage garden, with over 30 fruit trees, and is charmingly decorated and restored.
Conveniently located on State Highway 1, use the cottage as a perfect base for exploring the Bay of Islands and Northland - with Kerikeri and Paihia 20 minutes away, and the beautiful beaches of Matauri and Te Ngaere Bay just 45 minutes away. Kawakawa and the rail trail to Opua is 20 minutes down the road.
Explore the stunning sand dunes and wild rugged beaches of the West Coast with Hokianga Harbour only 45 minutes drive from the cottage.
Just 10 minutes up the road from the cottage are the Ngawha Springs - natural rustic thermal springs which boast an array of healing remedies!
After exploring and adventuring - retreat to your cottage and while away the afternoon enjoying the cottage garden.
Come and enjoy Northland and the Bay of Islands - whilst staying in a beautiful historic cottage in one of the earliest settlements in New Zealand.
We had a delightful week in this 1860s cottage. It has been fitted out very comfortably and is surrounded by beautiful gardens including a variety of fruit trees. Fiona is a wonderful host, who responds promptly. It’s a 20 minute drive from the touristy offerings of Piahia and the busier Kerikeri so if you’re wanting shops and restaurants on your doorstep this may not be for you. If you enjoy the peace and quiet of the lush green countryside the you’ll love this cottage

Trip to Nee Zealand
House was a lovely old house that has been added on to. Would have loved to know the history and stories of people who lived there. Beautiful area around the home. Was lovely to have access to laundry. Overall a very nice stay.

Stepping Back In Time
My hubby and I had a lovely stay at this gorgeous cottage. It was like stepping back in time to my childhood growing up on a farm with paddocks full of delicious fruit trees. So much fruit to sample, and magic wondering around all the paddocks. Fiona was a lovely host and came to meet us with her wee son on day we were leaving. Close enough this accommodation is for easy drives to Kerikeri to explore but far enough away to enjoy the countryside. Would highly recommend this holiday property.

First of all Fiona was really good for communication as she has been spontaneous for all the messages sent. Moreover she was really understanding when we were running little late to leave the cottage.
Property has all the amenities which we expect from one house name it from coffee machine to blender to cooking utensils and many more.
Quiet place and very drivable location from near around other tourist places.

Gorgeous garden, lovely cottage
Enjoyable and peaceful stay over Christmas. The cottage had everything we needed, and is comfortable and quirky. There are fruit trees in the giant garden (lemons! plums!). It is just off the main highway, and was a good base for Bay of Islands and the Northland. ❤️

We stayed at the ploughman cottage in 2019 and fell in love with the place. It was just as delightful this time. A very special place in the north. A treat to come back.

Farmhouse in Bay of Islands region
Elderly person struggled a bit with internal steps; was difficult to locate the property - GPS failed to locate accurately and difficult to see any signage, particularly at night. Grateful to get accommodation at short notice after previous host cancelled at last minute. Clean, good sized house in rural location.

Charming country cottage
We picked this accomodation due to it's proximity to Ngawha Springs and the Bay of Islands, also the log fire as ours was a winter holiday. It was certainly warm enough once the fire was going, with plenty of other heating options and electric blankets in addition. As the floors are not carpeted, I would recommend bringing slippers or ugg boots for inside wear if staying in winter. We enjoyed mandarins and feijoas, jonquils and the cute chickens and bunny rabbits in the garden. Unfortunately I did not sleep well as I found the queen bed very hard, but was able to bulk it up somewhat with a spare duvet. Linens were lovely, and lots of fresh towels available. Fee was easy to communicate with and kindly allowed us a late check out on our last day. Overall a good experience.

Beautiful stay in a beautiful cottage
My partner and I stayed at this gorgeous cottage for our honeymoon. Fiona was more than accommodating and allowed us to get ready there for the wedding and have some photos taken on the property. It was a beautiful stay and we are so keen to come back!
