Bonnie Doon on the Thames coast. | Apartment in Thames
1 Bedroom Apartment in Coromandel Forest Park, Thames
A quiet peaceful retreat in a beautiful location, nestled in a bush clad valley next to a chuckling stream with a variety of native birds. Walking distance to the coast and spectacular sunsets. A great base for fishing the firth of Thames and mussel farms or exploring the Coromandel peninsula. A spacious and comfortable self contained basement flat with free ultra fast fibre internet.
Bonnie Doon is next to the Tararu River on the Thames coast. Relax to the sounds of Tuis and bellbirds calling, and friendly fantails flitting in the trees, and our resident family of quail – with the ever-present calming vibe of the river as background music. Hows the serenity!
Your accommodation is a basement flat with independent entry from the main house, and off street parking. It is a very private and peaceful place. Feel free to explore and relax in the gardens and help yourself to the fruit trees in the orchard when in season. Usually, the resident ‘wildlife’ will include a doggie very keen for a pat and a bit of attention!
Inside you’ll find a newly renovated spacious 3 room flat that can sleep 5 comfortably. A cozy retro/kiwiana feel is the ‘vibe of it’ with the décor and everyday items we have gathered for you to use, and we will be always adding and tweaking the collection. There is a full kitchen and dining in one room, with the sliding entry door leading to your paved garden patio area. The middle room has the TV and lounge area, with a single bunk set for overflow bedding, and bathroom adjoining. The TV includes a firestick for Freeview channels and on-line streaming access, as well as a DVD player and collection of movies. The main bedroom holds a super comfy queen bed and single over double bunk bed. A workstation is in this room, with a keyboard and monitor available for plugging into your device. Internet access is provided with ultra fast fibre ethernet connection at the workstation along with high speed wifi throughout. A fish cleaning bench with running water is provided out in the carport, to process your catch.
We recommend going out our back gate for a short walk along the riverbank to the river mouth and beach to watch the awesome sunsets. You’ll also find a swimming hole in the river above the ford for a cooling dip on a hot day, only a short walk further up our street! A bush walking track also starts a short way up our street which leads to Tinkers gully – an historic gold mining location. There are many other tramping tracks and mountain bike trails nearby, it is also worthwhile visiting the museums in town to take in the colourful gold mining history of the area.
Access to your door is via a path sloping down the side of the house – this may be a little steep for anyone with mobility issues so let us know if you have any accessibility concerns. We can also help with local knowledge for fishing spots and boat launching options.
