Gorgeous cottage set in spacious rural Hawkes Bay garden
(We offer a flexible cancellation/refund policy as we understand that currently situations outside of indivual control crop up that may interfere with travel plans)
Omarunui cottage is located within the beautiful and established grounds of 'Omarunui', a historic Hawkes Bay homestead built in 1840. This newly renovated north facing cottage opens onto sunny decks allowing you to enjoy morning and afternoon sun, native bird life and with an outlook of mature trees and garden. While we are considered a rural property we have the benefit of being close to Taradale shops which is a 7 minute drive. During the summer months guests are welcome to use the swimming pool. The property is situated alongside the Tutaekuri River which provides excellent fishing and with easy access to the extensive network of Rotary walkway/cycle tracks. Perfectly placed between Napier and Hastings, both are a 15 minute drive away and Havelock North a 20 minute drive, a great spot to base yourself for day trips to the local wineries, day walks, beaches and the many fabulous restaurants that Hawkes Bay has to offer.
