Accommodation - Two Nights
Relax in the evenings with both nights stay in the recently refurbished Susannah’s Farm Cottage. Our lovely three bedroom villa dating back to the early 1900s with sleeping for up to six comfortably is perfect for small groups of friends or a couples getaway.
Located on our farmlet on a quiet rural road in Colville, the cottage comes complete with distant seaviews and a rural outlook over surrounding paddocks and rolling hills.

The Food
We can price a package up for you whether you are happy to prepare your own meals in Susannah’s kitchen or have us prepare them for you.
The lasagne/salads/dessert meal available on the second evening is certainly ticking all the boxes for those wanting to relax after their big day out.
Packed lunches can also be ordered for day 2 lunch and these consist of ham, egg, cheese and our own special slaw full of secrets.
Breakfasts on days 2 and 3 and afternoon tea on excursion day are all complimentary.

Day Three Bikers
For bikers, we visit the lovely location of Little Bay with its beautiful views over the Colville Channel across to Great Barrier.
From here you join the 17km ride of the day the East to West taking you inland through bush, farmland and backcountry trail. There is a short tarsealed section into Colville before the return gravel ride up to Tukituki Farm. This passes through a beautiful section of regenerating bush and has the bonus of a short sharp climb to reveal some amazing views. All up around 17 kms in total of intermediate biking.
-
Day Three Hikers
For hikers we offer a 6km walk from Waitete Bay Beach through lush, green native bush. There are some amazing views to be seen along the way, (yes the short steep climb is worth it), as you pass through Tukituki Farm. The descent into Colville is via Woods Road fully enclosed by giant puriri often home to a lazy kereru feasting on the red berries. Keep an ear out for the odd Kaka who now call this area their home.
Such a great way to finish your Getaway!

Stay Another Night
Happy for the magic to continue, perhaps you have seen something else on our website that you’d love to do or just maybe you don’t want to leave. Coromandel is Good For Your Soul so best to get the most of that vibe while you are here!
Remember flexibility is key and we are happy to create something for you.

Day Three
Ok, things are not quite all over! We have a beaut way to finish off your three days with a trip over to Waitete Bay for the hikers or Little Bay for the bikers. Enjoy a delicious morning tea on the beach before we set you off on the inland route back to Colville. This has a bit of everything and can be hiked for 6kms or ridden for 17km over a bush trail, gravel road and private farmland. It very much sums up what has been a classic Coromandel Experience. And I did mention the surprise seaviews for just that extra little bit of effort!
