🐾 Bluebell Cottage – A Family & Pet-Friendly Beach Escape in Snells Beach Bring the kids, bring the dog, and unwind in comfort at Bluebell Cottage – a charming, standalone holiday home just a short walk from the calm waters of Snells Beach. Thoughtfully set up for families of all sizes, this welcoming cottage sleeps up to 5 with a queen bedroom, bunk beds, and a comfy daybed in the living room. There’s a well-equipped kitchen for easy family meals, a sunny fully fenced garden for the kids or dog to play in, and even books and games to keep everyone entertained. Just a 6-minute stroll to the beach and playground, it’s the perfect base for relaxed days by the water, weekend markets in Matakana, or adventures to Goat Island and Brick Bay Sculpture Trail. Whether you're planning a fun-filled family holiday or a peaceful seaside break with your four-legged friend, Bluebell Cottage has everything you need for a relaxed and memorable stay.

Bluebell Beach Cottage was previously home to me and my sons, and it still holds a special place in my heart. Though I now live on Auckland’s North Shore, I regularly return to Snells Beach to visit friends, unwind, and soak up the peaceful atmosphere that the cottage continues to offer. I take great pride in sharing the cottage with guests and want you to feel as relaxed and at home as I do when I’m there. The cottage is professionally cleaned by a trusted local team, ensuring it’s always spotless and welcoming for your arrival. Whether you're here for a weekend escape or a longer break, I hope Bluebell Cottage becomes your own little slice of paradise too.

Snells Beach is a relaxed coastal gem offering swimming, family fun, stunning sunrises, and easy access to top regional attractions—vineyards in Matakana, surf and wildlife at Omaha, marine life at Goat Island, and history and nature on Kawau Island.
