Of a misty morning at the Ambers bed & Breakfast
There are beautiful beaches, scenic walks, golf courses and horse riding nearby as well as other activities such as a new snow dome & go cart racing or enjoy our local village of Silverdale with its historic village and Saturday markets.
Spend a night or two unwinding when you first arrive before heading to sunny Northland one of New Zealand's major tourist destinations. Or on your return trip south to other destinations such as the beautiful Coromandel Peninsula and Rotorua with its bubbling mud pools, geysers and focus on Maori culture.
Alternatively have a relaxing rest day at The Ambers before leaving New Zealand instead of staying in the city or at the airport.
We are also a great stay for Aucklanders looking for a relaxing romantic weekend away in the country while still being close to the city.
The Regency room
This very elegant English style room is situated on the 1st floor with lovely views of our fountain and driveway, particularly beautiful in autumn when our Liquid Ambers turn brilliant colours of red and gold.
It has a queen sized bed with finest bed linen. We have had many guests comment on the comfort of this bed. The en-suite has a large shower.
Views out over the front lawns are particularly beautiful in Autumn when the Liquid Ambers put on their show.
The Blue Room
The exquisite Blue Room has a king sized bed and has beautiful views out over the back garden down to native bush.
In the blue room you wake up to the sound of birdsong and watch the sunset in the evening. The Blue Room en-suite is large and has both a shower and bath.
Toile de Jouey Suite
The delightful French Toile attic room is very romantic and private. It has lovely views from the casement window out over our front paddocks and tree-lined driveway. It is our largest suite which includes a couch, desk and coffee and tea making facilities. This is a very relaxing suite to stay in for a honeymoon night or a special weekend away.
Settle in with tea or coffee in your room before joining us for a pre dinner drink in our guest lounge or on the terrace in summer.
The attic bathroom has a wonderful antique claw foot bath as well as shower. Pamper yourself with aromatic bath oils & luxury towels.
The Santorini Room
The Greek Santorini Room is in the Eastern end of the attic.It consists of a bedroom with super king bed (which can also be split into two singles) plus a small ante-room with divan bed and writing table.
Along with the Toile de Jouey Suite, also in the attic, the Santorini Room makes a very comfortable family unit with shared bathroom. Children love the attic with its sloping ceilings & casement windows.
Whilst Santorini is the smallest bedroom on offer it is also the cosiest. Tucked away in a corner of the attic it offers pretty views to the front and the back of the property.
