Stayed Feb 3, 2024We really enjoyed our stay at this absolutely gorgeous cottage. The garden is lovely and the spa in the back yard was the perfect way to finish the evening. Inside the house is a large kitchen with everything you need to cook. The house was spotless and tastefully decorated. Beds we comfortable. The cottage is walking distance to the gorge carpark and trails which is perfect if you were exploring the area. Only mistake we made was not staying long enough.

Stayed Mar 12, 2026What a charming little cottage in a most picturesque spot. With 3 bedrooms it gave our family of four a comfortable, sweet home away from home. The fully equipped kitchen and laundry provides everything you need to be self sufficient. Aircon, wood fire & hot tub all catering for multiple weather conditions. Highly recommend.

Stayed Dec 29, 2025This was a favorite space of everyone in my family! The indoor space was fantastic, and I loved the hot tub. The sun room! I just loved spending the rainy evening curled up in the sun room reading a book. My sons enjoyed the provided board games, everyone slept well, and we all loved the quirky fun decor. The host was super responsive and wonderful.

Stayed Apr 17, 2025Spa pool didn't work the whole time we were there. And no compensation was offered. There was also possibly rats in the walls (sounded way too big for mice).Cottage was cute but to cluttered with trinkets - some where very dusty.

Stayed Aug 13, 2025A uniquely decorated cottage, very comfortable and quiet. The owner provided a comprehensive folder of instructions for all devices. The hot tub was ready for use on our arrival. The Karangahake Gorge walkway is close by and although some of the tracks were closed, we enjoyed the walk through the tunnel and beside the river. Would happily stay again.

Stayed Jul 16, 2025We had a lovely winter getaway for a couple of days, and especially enjoyed the enormous hot tub. The walks nearby are great, but please note that cafe listed as being 2 mins away no longer exists, so you do need to drive to get food or walk the 6km or so one way to the Waikino Tavern. The house is old, but well kept and clean except for a funky smell in the rear room. Overall we had a great time and would recommend to anyone :)

Lovely hot tub to soak in and washing machine with a small sunporch- great for drying clothes even with the odd showers. The garden and plants are exquisite and you can walk across the road to the Karangahake gorge.
