Great central location when exploring the Wairarapa. Taraview is situated in a rural setting with fabulous view of the Tararua ranges 2kms from Greytown and a 10 minute drive to Martinborough
Romantic place to stay for couples as it has a huge claw foot bath big enough for 2 and yet also great place to stay for a couple with kids and a dog with half an acre of private fully fenced land to run about on.
Kept warm in the winter months with a log burner.

Dogs are welcome just bring something for them to sleep on and we ask you please do not leave them unattended at the cottage unless crated.

    We had a wonderful stay at Taraview cottage! This was our second time staying here and we loved it just as much! Clean and tidy and cosey. Wonderful to have the fireplace when temperatures dipped. The beautiful garden is a lovely spot to escape the busyness of life. Our little dog really loved exploring also! Thank you for the little extras like the arrival chocolate bars and treats for our dog. The flower arrangements inside the house were just stunning! Very close and handy to Greytown and Fresh Choice for supplies. Also close to explore Martinborough. Jeannie is great to deal with also.

    A great place to relax, the property had everything we needed. The cottage is well located in a great garden setting surrounded by fields (& associated livestock!). We enjoyed our mini break and would be happy to stay here again.

Perfect place for a stay around Martinborough. Thanks heaps for having us. The fireplace and the dog treats were an extra bonus and greatly appreciated.

    We stayed at this cottage 24 years ago after our Church Wedding in New Zealand. We returned to celebrate our 25th anniversary ( we had a civil Wedding a year earlier in the Philippines.) Our stay this time brought back many memories. We are planning to return in 5 years for our 30th anniversary!

    This was a wonderful place to disconnect from the spinning, racous world and connect with calming nature. The gardens are wonderful and great to walk amongst. Our host was aware that we might be a bit cold because of the temperature (the Kiwi summer had disappeared). The wood shed was found and a warm fire was built.

    The cottage had a lovely characterful vibe but with all the comforts of a modern building. The garden was gorgeous and we were able to sit out under the fruit trees for meals. Loved the high ceiling in the lounge with mezzanine floor. Friendly helpful hosts, with extra welcoming touches when we arrived, such as home baked treats for the dog. Perfect for our family Christmas, thank you!

    Lovely cottage surrounded by magical gardens, filled with bees and butterflies! We found the road noise a bit loud but earplugs sorted that. The cottage is filled with charm and character. Great location to explore the area. Fantastic to be able to bring our spotty Poppi dog with us ;) Thanks Jeannie!

    Another wonderful stay at this lovely cottage set in a fully fenced garden. Our Labrador loved checking out every inch of the beautiful grounds and enjoying the wood burner in the evenings. She was made most welcome with her own doggy bowl and bag of treats. A great location close to Greytown and Martinborough. We will be back!

    The cottage was perfect for a weekend away with our dog. The notes and information left by the owner were thoughtful and friendly. We all felt so welcome (dog included). The garden is lovely, tulips in bloom and very well cared for. There's an expansive outlook across paddocks to the hills which makes the cottage a very relaxing place to be. The cottage itself is very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay!

    We had the most amazing stay - it is our second time going there and honestly it is the BEST if you are looking to unwind and relax . The garden is beautiful and the front porch is very sunny with a gorgeous view. On a cold day you can sit inside play games and light the fire - plus on top of all that it is super clean ! Highly recommended !

    Great location.. easy to find.. short distance to Greytown. Cosy fire place. The house was nice and warm with the fire going.. our dog loved the garden.. I felt the only thing missing was a microwave would have been helpful to heat up food.
