Bird Gardens Cottage
The tasteful and stylish Cottage at the Bird Gardens sleeps just two. The cottage is self-contained with a full kitchen, allowing guests complete independence and space but the owners are always close by to ensure guests comfort. With satellite TV, a CD player and a gas fireplace the cottage is a cozy and comfortable base year round and whatever the weather. The cottage is situated overlooking the gardens but is not accessible by other visitors ensuring your privacy
Grounds:
The cottage is set within the grounds of the beautiful Katikati Bird Gardens. The gardens, established over 45 years ago, are a 10 acre park set directly on the edge of the inner Tauranga harbour. With water-lily ponds, mature trees from around the world, flower gardens and natural wetlands the gardens are a delight all year round. Staying in this special corner of New Zealand is a truly unique experience.
