Holiday rentals near Firth Tower Museum

Our family of four really enjoyed our stay at Sue’s cottage. The outlook was outstanding and the Cottage itself is well stocked and very clean and comfortable

Judy,our host,greeted us at the door.Friendly and gracious she led us through our accommodation and we felt very much at home.Beautiful 2 bedroom home in a gorgeous garden setting.Unfortunately we were only staying overnight but it is close to a beautiful lake and bushland and it would have been nice to stay a couple of more days.I would wholeheartedly recommend Watershed to family and friends plus it's not too far from Hobbiton.Thank you Judy.

Stayed in this cottage and it did not disappoint! The scenic drive to the cottage was wonderful, rolling hills and very peaceful. Sarah, the owner was in contact and made getting there and into the property super easy. The The drive into the gated property with its tree canopy was beautiful. The cottage was gorgeous, with little momentos of Hobbiton which is the reason we stayed in Matamata, for the Hobbiton Tour and Beer Fest. The breakfast supplied was fantastic, we picked up some smoky bacon to enjoy with fresh eggs and toast. The bed was sublimely comfortable and the backyard was bathed in sun in the Morning. Would absolutely stay here again but this time for a few days longer to really enjoy the cottage and its facilities, and the peacefulness of its location.

We stayed at this gorgeous studio for only a night and it was perfect! The owners are absolutely lovely, leave little treats for you and provide pretty much the service of a hotel! Would definitely recommended staying here for a cozy night in !

Stayed in the wonderful Swiss-Kiwi retreat on new year eve - after a scary 2 hour torrential rain drive from Auckland airport, my partner and I arrived to a wonderful welcome from our lovely hosts who took us straight to the incredible hot tub to relax and unwind after the drive. Thank you for being so wonderfully welcoming. Would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway

From the moment we stepped out in this beautiful country haven... we were warmly welcomed by Monika and Rolf They were fantastic hosts we felt like it was a home away from home especially with animals around and home made breakfast items were fabulous. Thanks for making our stay so lovely.

From the moment we enquired to booking, staying and departing, our stay was great. Everything we needed and very cosy. Our flight was delayed so our arrival was early hours of the morning and when we arrived the heating was in with lights and very cosy. Would stay again definitely and recommend a stay. On the outskirts of town but still handy to most things including Mt Maunganui.

This property is tucked away in a quiet, rural location but is perfectly located for access to beaches, walks, shops etc. Brendon was extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful, suggesting we check out the surf - which was fab! Wish we'd stayed for more than one night!
