We stayed at the cottage for a family wedding. It was the perfect place for us to stay due to the location, and it’s size. The cottage had everything we needed in a peaceful location.

The place itself was OK, but the lack of communication was incredible. I had to call VRBO to get the host to respond to me with check-in info. Not the cleanest place either though it was comfortable. It was nice and quiet at the cabin though. Didn't see a dryer though it may have a been a one-tub washer dryer. The kitchen was equipped however none of the dishes were made to be used in the microwave or dishwasher. So not as useful. I used my own purchased picnic plates in the microwave. If you have an allergy to bee stings, this may not be comfortable here. The front stairs were bracketed by bushes that had at least twenty bumblebees and some honeys bees and the other bush had an active yellowjacket nest in it and one inactive. They did have bug spray that knocked them out at least. The outdoor furniture looked old and weathered and splintery.

Modern comfortable country cottage which still has that vintage touch.

We really enjoyed our stay. Cottage was very comfortable and well equipped with modern facilties. The provided continental breakfast is a bonus. Jacqui was an amazing host and went beyond by providing us a lovely spread of food on Christmas day! Highly recommend.

Berghütte

Im kühlen NZ-Winter war es zunächst schwer, alles aufzuheizen. Als das gelungen war, war es fast perfekt: Recht gut ausgestattete Küche, in der man alles machen kann, gemütliche Schlaf- und Wohnzimmer, Bad und Waschmaschine/Trockner ist alles da und funktionabel. Das WLAN könnte schneller sein - man ist beim streamen häufig an der Grenze. Der Kontakt mit Vermietern ist sehr nett und pragmatisch! Sogar eine Garage ist dabei; ein schöner Garten, eine schöne Aussicht. In der Gegend um Waiuku ist man in angemessener Zeit bei Tankstelle, Versorgern, Highway, Auckland.

Absolutely wonderful cottage

An absolutely wonderful cottage in a beautiful rural area southwest of Auckland. The airport is only 40 mins away. Comfortable bed in a spacious bedroom, superb bathroom, and a wonderfully outfitted kitchen. If we were going to be in that area of New Zealand for a longer period of time, we would have definitely wanted to stay longer!

A little piece of paradise

This was a long weekend getaway with my son and his friend for some racing at Pukekohe raceway. A beautiful little place to stay at, 15min from the township on a nice quiet dead end road. The property was cosy and comfy with all the mod cons to make life easy. Would have no hesitation in staying here again. The owners have a little piece of paradise here
