Experience the romance of life a hundred years ago in our little pioneer cottage.
Just 8km from Masterton, the cottage sits overlooking our private lagoon and the workings of our sheep and beef farm. In summer the lagoon dries up but there are still the 360 degree views of the mountains, hills and Wairarapa plains.
Built entirely of recycled materials the cottage is now home to many precious heirlooms gifted by family and friends, beginning with its beautiful stain glass front

Stayed Aug 28, 2025Checked in quite late so got a bit lost (and stuck) but Shona came promptly when I asked for help.Got a few surprises like stepping on sheep manure when I arrived, and a large white tail spider hiding on the bed.But made the cottage nice & toasty with the fireplace and cooked some dinner on the stove on top which was amazing (although a bit dusty).Outdoor bath was nice, however bath was a bit rusty and hot water was slow but Shona let me check out a bit later.If a few improvements were made, I may consider coming back again.

Stayed Feb 18, 2022Great character with a warm aesthetic. A lovely mix of amenity (hot water for the tub is sweet-as!) and rustic. The historic/heirloom elements are great. My compliments to your granddaughter on her pencil drawing of the cabin :-). Will be back.
