Maple's Den - Collingwood beach house

Maple's Den is a quiet, comfortable and sunny 3-bedroom house just across the road from Collingwood beach. The spacious, open-plan living and dining area, and sunroom, command an expansive 180-degree view over the bay from Separation Point to Farewell Spit. From the upstairs living area and sunroom you can observe spectacular sunrises, interesting coastal birds, and be mesmerized by the tide going in and out.

The kitchen is very well equipped and overlooks the ocean. The sundeck leads to a deck with a good quality BBQ. There are three large bedrooms, one king and one queen upstairs, and a third bedroom downstairs with one queen and a bunk set. There is a diverse selection of DVDs, games and books to occupy all ages, in addition to free, unlimited wifi internet. Maple's Den is also very well suited for a comfortable winter escape, with a fireplace and good supply of dry firewood for cozy winter nights.

The beach is tidal and safe for swimming and is on the coastal walking route to Milnethorpe Park. The bach is just a short walking distance to the Courthouse cafe, local pub and shops in Collingwood village, as well as to the departure point for Farewell Spit tours. Maple's Den is well situated for access to the Heaphy Track, and to explore Farewell Spit, Wharariki Beach and all that Golden Bay has to offer.

This is the second time we have stayed at Maplesden. It's a wonderful place, well stocked with everything we needed and more. So close to the beach, across the road, and activities at the top end of Golden Bay. The sunrise is amazing!Thank you Fran.

Amazing get away

Thank you so much for a wonderful house to stay during our very rainy adventure to Collingwood. The fire was so warm, plenty of heaters and the BBQ was fab. A lovely homely and cosy place right next to the beach. We would for sure return. Thank you

Perfect holiday house!

We had the best time! So easy back and forth from the beach - safe swimming. Amazing view from the house. Even though it’s across the road from the beach it’s a very quiet dead end road so it really felt like the beach was at the front door. Perfect spot to base ourselves for exploring!

On the beach in Collingwood

This place has everything you need for a visit to the Golden Bay area. We were just a couple, but it would definitely work for a family with kids too. The property manager handled communicating well and check in was easy. Thanks for a nice stay.

Lovely place to be for our family Xmas holiday. Good facilities and a wonderful view. We didn’t get the weather we were hoping for but enjoyed the lounge with a view for lots of board games and cheese platters. 😊

Relaxing place to stay

Fantastic communication before and during our stay. Clean and well maintained house with everything we needed. Great little town and lots of things to do from Collingwood too. We enjoyed swimming out front of the house but you need to make the most of the two windows of time each day at high tide for swimming as the rest of the day the water is a very long way out!

Great location

Fantastic location and easy walking distance to shop/pub/Cafe. Beach is very safe for young children swimming. Kitchen was stocked with all the tools needed. Our only issue was lack of sleep, the blinds at night when sleeping constantly bang in the wind, and one of the beds was really noisy everytime you moved the metal slats squeaked.

What a gem. Location is amazing. We saw seals from the kitchen window and enjoyed yummy fresh fruit from the back garden Kids played morning, noon and night on the beach across the road. Very tidy but not so pretentious that you couldn't relax. We can't wait to come to Collingwood again.

Perfect Spot

This was a great place to stay. Perfect view. Well appointed, peaceful. Couldn't want for more. Warm and cosey once fire was lit. Beds very comfy and bedrooms a good size. Loved it. Booked for 2 nights but ended up booking an extra night. Would not hesitate to stay here here again.
