Great place for Kaikoura holiday

Fantastic self contained cottage in great location - easy access to town but well set back from the road so a lovely quiet spot with fantastic views over farmland to the mountains. Cottage itself was very comfortable and well maintained with everything you would need for family stay. Would definitely recommend and plan to return!

Lovely comfortable cottage

We really enjoyed our stay at Judy’s cottage. The cottage is well situated and very comfortable with a lovely outlook. The lazy boys were very popular with the family. Having a well equipped kitchen was also very helpful.

Awesome view

We loved staying here. The cottage is spacious and well equipped. The view out the back is jaw-dropping. The gardens and the stream are beautiful. We were able to cycle down to the peninsula and see the seals as well as walk in the forest near Mount Fyffe. We found the owners very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

Great location, reasonably priced

Kaikoura was wonderful, our favorite spot in our trip, thanks to a kayak trip surrounded by dolphins and some great food. Judy's house is perfectly located, 3-4 minutes from restaurants, grocery store and the town. She is very friendly. Downsides - internet was a little spotty and dryer doesn't work so well, but the home is still a bargain.

Wonderful stay & amazing hosts!

I surprised my wife with a stay at this cottage for Valentine’s Day and she LOVED it! Alison and her husband are amazing hosts and very communicative through the whole process. I highly recommend the romantic package, my wife felt very special seeing the rose petals, chocolates and pastries. The cabin was very clean and private and the hot tub was so relaxing! The only thing I will say is that you may want to bring your own pillow if you like a firm pillow, the pillows that were there were a little flat for our liking (but that’s just a personal preference, nothing against the hosts!) All in all this was the best VRBO we’ve been to and will definitely be back!

Lovely place!

Stunning views to the mountains. Secluded and quiet, private setting. Lovely wee stream running behind the cottage with eels, fish and even a fresh water cray! A nice place to get a break away from the hustle & bustle yet still enjoy all the things that Kaikoura offers!
