Right in the Heart of the Matakana Village this charming old world (circa 1866) Cottage, Rose Cottage Matakana, is one of the few original buildings in Matakana in Auckland, New Zealand. An extensive garden with many roses provides a private oasis, yet very close to the Saturday Market, shopping, cinema complex, cafes and restaurants.
For breakfast, the popular Black Dog Cafe is literally across the road from Rose Cottage Matakana with the local general store adjoining. The highly rated Matakana Patisserie is just a short walk away, also the Matakana House Hotel & Bistro, The Vintry Wine Centre and Lounge Bar, Tapiano Restaurant and Cinema Complex. No need to worry about parking for the market day either.
Rose Cottage Matakana offers a comfortable lounge with open fireplace, functional kitchen with original coal range (there is an electric stove for the more modern cook). Two double bedrooms (one queen sized), a single bedroom, an attic with single bed, and a bed settee in the lounge allow for 6 guests (3 couples or 2 couples and 2 singles). Old style verandas and outside seating complete the picture.
