This is a wonderful rural retreat though only a 15-minute drive from Waikanae township. The open plan cottage is spacious and beautifully decorated. The hosts are friendly and provide a delicious breakfast. I would definitely stay here again.

The Cottage is better than the pictures suggest. Beautifully decorated and spacious. Everything you need and more. Steve cooked dinner for us on our second night and it was outstanding. (And Raspberries galore). We will return.

10.0

Magical peaceful oasis. Outstanding decor and ambience. Steve and Tonya and their exuberant lovely dog were so welcoming . We felt relaxed immediately. Molly, our Cavoodle , was so happy and enjoyed playing;with Raphie and tearing around the extensive property . Steve, our host and a highly awarded chef cooked our 4 course meal for us. Divine. Beautiful presentation and yummy flavours. A very special treat for my birthday. Loved the hot tub , and yummy breakfast included as well. We cannot recommend it more highly. A special place to relax in and recharge. Thanks so much Steve, Tonya and Ralph.
