Green Hills Chalets

Green Hills Chalets

Mangawhai, Northland

Green Hills Chalets is a convenient 1.5-hour drive from Auckland - and only 10-minutes from Mangawhai Village in Northland.

Sleeping up to six guests, it's an ideal family-friendly and group rural escape.

There are two bedroom chalets, each with a queen-size bed and sofa bed. A central living cabin offers a communal gathering space - with a lounge, kitchen and bathroom. Decking boardwalks and steps seamlessly connect the individual spaces.

Surrounded by rolling green hills, you'll feel a long way from the hustle and bustle of city life.  Grab a few deck chairs and relax overlooking the two acres of gently sloping pasture. Head down to the secluded outdoor bath for a soak. Cook up a storm using the outdoor BBQ or pizza oven. Or cosy up with a blanket and glass of wine next to the brazier.

Green Hills Chalets is the perfect spot for a getaway with your loved ones. It offers peace and quiet, as well as rural beauty. And it's only 10-minutes away from the coastal beauty and activities on offer in the Mangawhai area.

  • Things to do

    Green Hills Chalets is a beautiful place to slow down, relax and destress. Bring out the board games, jigsaw puzzles, and playing cards. Or settle in with a good book in the sun. In the evening, enjoy a game of Petanque on the lawn, sunset yoga (mats provided) and toast some marshmallows by the brazier.

    The Mangawhai region is an absolutely stunning area to explore, especially in summer. Head out to the beach to swim, surf, boogie board, kayak or fish (charter trips are available). Other popular activities include golf, biking, wine tasting, the local art gallery, museum and Bennetts Chocolate Shop.

    There are also a number of fabulous walks around, both coast and inland.

    If you stay during the weekend, check out the Saturday morning markets at Mangawhai Tavern or at the gymnasium next to the Mangawhai Beach School.

    Karen’s working background was initially in nursing and then in farming in the Bay of Plenty.  Steve has done a lot of building, creating, painting, fixing and gardening. Nowadays, they are both semi-retired but still keeping busy.

    Steve currently has a part-time business offering property maintenance. Leisure wise, they both enjoy time with their families, grandchildren, and friends… Also going to movies, concerts and rugby - and Steve loves his golf!

    Karen has lived in Mangawhai since 2005 and Steve since 2015. They really enjoy the space, peace and quiet that Green Hills Chalets offer - and the joy of planting trees and watching as they grow.

    Karen and Steve were amazing hosts. They met us upon arrival and showed us around the property, offering help with the facilities. They were also very quick to reply to any questions we had during the weekend. The property itself was so clean and well maintained. It is the perfect place for a quiet weekend away, and it is just a nice short drive to nearby restaurants and shops too!

    Very convenient accommodation for a family. Only an hour and a half from Auckland. Very relaxing. It feels like you don’t want to go back to the city. It's good to book for two or three nights to fully enjoy your stay.

    Communication was excellent, and the place was stocked up with everything we needed for a great stay. Even on the colder nights, they had heaters and a large supply of wood for the outdoor brazier, which was awesome.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in such a beautiful and peaceful setting. It was equipped with everything you need, and we enjoyed utilising the outdoor space with an outdoor bathtub, pizzas in the pizza oven, and toasting marshmallows on the brazier. The kids loved the expansive grass space to play. Such lovely and helpful hosts.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Green Hills Chalets. The highlights were the stunning hillside view and the outdoor bath and shower. Although we didn't get to use the brazier or pizza oven, they were wonderful additions. The chalets were equipped with everything we could have wished for, including yoga mats, delicious sourdough bread, local chocolates, and bath bombs. The cleanliness was impeccable, and Karen's efficiency and kindness made our stay even more enjoyable.
