Cottages in New Zealand

"Grafton Cottage was so fantastic we changed our stay from 1 night to 3 nights after the first night. Albie (owner) is very personable and accommodating - just basically lovely. The chalet we had our first night was a cute bedsit and had a good view out over the bay. Full cooking facilities, lots of hot water and a spa & pool right by the door. After the first night we loved it so much we asked Albie if we could stay another 2 nights and he had a 2 story chalet free for us which he only...

"Very nice location and easy access to the property "

"Excellent location to do day rides on the hauraki rail trail. Thoroughly enjoyed the trip. House was cosy, clean and comfy. Kids loved the treehouse and spa too."

"Our only complaint with this property were the beds. They were very soft and worn. We were a group of two couples travelling. All 4 of us had bad sleeps on the two beds and complained of sore backs. Good beds are so important. The rest of the cottage was locked lovely. "

"Kims place was perfect. It was sparkling clean which made a nice change from previous accommodations. Very pretty surroundings and very close to the Beach. I would recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a country stay"

"Fantastic place to stay"

"Quaint little cottage, so close to everything. Transport is fantastic. Would have stayed longer here, you have everything you need and more. Very comfortable and the host Sue is very resposive and so lovely. Would recommend this place to anyone. Beach is just down road, airpot is 9kms away and no going through city to get to it. Beach front all the way. Thanks again we loved it. X"

"Great stay, exceeded our expectations."

"We loved the authenticity and cosy bed and fire. We felt the bathroom let it down. Nowhere to pop your toiletries. Rae was wonderful at bringing us coffee which was missing and looked after us well."

"Loved the property even though it looked very different to the original pictures look quite different to the ones shown when we booked the trip. Loved the SPA and the property was very clean and tidy and the main bed was great. Only negative was that we are used to cooking with Gas so the slowness of the electric oven and cook top was a little frustrating at first. Would definitely stay there again"

"We enjoyed our stay, great location for the wineries which was our main reason for visiting the region. Close to old Cromwell via the bike path and the Dunstan trail. Thanks for the great stay!"

"We had a wonderful stay at Shirley and Tim’s cottage in the Coromandel Town. Tim and Shirley were wonderful hosts and have a beautiful cottage, the photos don’t do it justice! Great location for so many great activities. we will definitely be back! Thanks Tim and Shirley. - Michael and Nicole"

"great location and very clean. Only thing feel needs to be updated is that the bathroom has the smallest basin. "

"I was very impressed. I loved the history of the old stables - now converted tastefully into accommodation, and I thoroughly enjoyed the native plant arboretum and nursery where I saw many rare native plants. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly too."

"Very well catered. Large space for kids to run around and explore"

"Quiet and private. Got a great sleep. Cozy bed."

"The cabin and surroundings were just lovely. The cabin had everything we needed. The property was well maintained and private. We would love to stay again."

"Lovely property, nice and quiet, excellent facilities, very friendly hosts. We had a wonderful stay. David"

"Unique location with views over the Bay, very responsive and hospitable hosts, and a selection of great books which were appreciated on a wet day"

"This property is comfotable and welcoming. The host really makes it a home from home, they have many personal touches to make your stay a good one. The property is peaceful, quiet and with no light polution , a great place to sit out under the stars. There are so many places on the property to sit with very different outlooks, you will always have a place to rest."
