Are you looking for a cosy, quiet retreat right in the centre of town? Walking distance to shops, restaurants, cafes, library & parks, Saturday Market and everything Whanganui has to offer. Super, comfortable big bed, your own ensuite bathroom and lounge/dining area with a big TV. Tea & coffee making facilities and a light breakfast to help yourself to. Own entrance. Private terrace. Self-contained with a separate entrance & lockbox for key access.
I would like to welcome you to The Bungalow. Your feel-good space. I have been hosting for 4 years and love meeting people, of all ages, from all over NZ and the world.
We are located only a 10 minute walk to the centre of town - historic Victoria Ave, the main street of Whanganui. Discover boutique shopping, great cafes and heritage buildings. The Royal Whanganui Opera House, Sargeant Art Gallery, River Traders Market, the Whanganui River, and the creative precinct of Drews Avenue.
