Fabulous place to stay

Really fabulous big house with everything you need for a great stay. Four huge bedrooms and 2 bathrooms/shower rooms. Big dining/kitchen room and living area. Right on edge of Wellington centre with just a 10 minute walk to shops/bars/restaurants. Only 2 minute walk to Tinakori village. We couldn't have wished for anything better.

A fabulous option!

We had a lovely time at this property with our extended family from visiting from Australia. The house is not only in a lovely and convenient location it is well equipped with all the essentials in every room. The home itself is a beautiful spacious character villa that is cosy and inviting and suits a large group really well. We will definitely recommend and stay again.

Grand Old Villa on Grant Road

This property is beautiful. Full of charm and character. Loved our stay here. A peaceful haven so close to the city. Very comfortable. Loads of room. If you want 'sterile hotel' this is not the place. If you want a cosy and welcoming retreat, this is it. ❤️

Wonderful home away from home in Thorndon, Wellington

We spent great 5 nights at this lovely home in the oldest area of Wellington. The house is spacious, beds are really comfortable, quiet for sleeping. The walk downtown is abut 35 minutes, and leads to the Commonwealth Walk Way along the harbour. The Thorndon village is a quick walk and offers several options for meals.Everything we could have wanted was there for us. The home is lovingly decorated with unique art work, both on walls and surfaces. Yes it is an old home but it has lovely bones. Thanks for a great 'home away from home' for our time in Windy Wellington.

Breezy Peezy. Gourmet kitchen.

Nice kitchen. Both wash and dryer and a drying rack. Parking for one car only. Porch bathroom, 2 big bedrooms, one medium bedroom. Portable heaters can be moved around to heat rooms desired. Not super close to public transit, but 15” walk to town and bus to Wellington. Host responsive and has a nice orientation binder that gives lots of instructions. Nice to have an extra hand towel. Thanks.

We had an amazing time visiting Wellington, and having a central base was part of it. It was amazing to be able to walk out the front door and have so many activities in walking distance. Thank you so much 😊

The property did not match the description. We have stayed in old villas in New Zealand many times but was disappointed with this one. The owner said this property would not suit those who wanted new/bland but it was the misleading description that reduced our rating. The renovation still left the house looking in need of some care (peeling paint, cracked window etc)The house was advertised as having two bathrooms - important to us as we were a group of two couples who had not travelled together before. The second bathroom is through a bare concrete floor laundry room in an addition to the original house.

Awesome, well equipped villa - a home away from home. Very cosy, warm with electric blankets and heaters in every room. The children enjoyed the games and Netflix. Very easy to walk to the Botan's, local pub for dinner - ubers just a call away. We will be back - thank you!

The property is as advertised. It is a funky, old, moderately restored home. We were all comfortable. The beds were amazing. We all slept better than at home. Loved that each room could be climate controlled depending on each person. We did not have a car, but Uber is inexpensive and Cuba St for eating and shopping is a quick ride. There is a bars and a small market walking distance from the home. If you want to treat yourself to an amazing plant based dinner go to Hillside Kitchen. A quick walk away from the property.

Nice place for a quiet family retreat in Thornton

A good set up with all the amenities we needed, including a bassinet for our baby and bonus toys for the kids to play with. Everything in the house worked but you could see that it needed maintenance for some of the finer things like door handles ect. Also parking was a bit tight which made it a bit tricky for disabled people to get in and out of the vehicle, but this is a common issue for most houses around Wellington. All in all though it was a good stay.

Good location and amenities but in need of an update and deep cleaning

Good location and amenities. The second bathroom is crude and needs an update. The entire home needs a deep cleaning as there were webs and insects in every room and dirt/rubbish in the corners and under furniture. The outside patio furniture is not useable due to filth. Washing machine smelled and required a second cleaning. Doorknob to back door falls off. Front door needs a dead bolt as front lock assembly can be accessed by any flat tool. No fans for cooling and is very warm on a hot day.
