About this property

Cosy modern two bedroom off-grid cabin, in the Marlborough Sounds

  • Punga Heights Cabin is located in the picturesque Marlborough Sounds, and only a 30 minute drive from Havelock, or just over an hour from Blenheim.

    It is a cosy modern two bedroom off-grid cabin nestled amongst the punga and native bush, the perfect place to rest, relax and recharge, surrounded by nature.

    The warm north facing cabin contains all the essential items for your stay, including queen size beds where you can drift off to sleep to the call of the Morepork; an inside living space with a snug sitting area and a supply of books and games; and an outdoor deck where you can soak up the sights and sounds of coastal life, cook on the bbq, and chill out on the beanbags.

    Set on a property with a variety of flora and fauna, and tranquil views of Mahau Sound, Punga Heights Cabin is the ideal base for your stay in the Marlborough Sounds. Spend your days enjoying the cabin and its grounds or on the beach, using the kayaks or dinghy; or adventure further afield, returning each night for a restful sleep.

    Spend your holiday at the perfect punga paradise, Punga Heights Cabin. It’s the perfect place for a couple or two, or a couple of friends looking for a spectacular spot to reconnect with nature.
