The Shanty Self-catering Accommodation, Warkworth
The Shanty, as the hosts affectionately call their restored beachfront cottage, is set in a secluded private bay on Mahurangi Harbour. High tide comes up to the sundeck, from where guests can watch fish jumping by day and the moonlight shining a path on the water at night.

The Shanty is suitable for families, where parents can relax on the deck and watch their children playing safely on the beach.
