Book a Motupiko Cottage

"It is a quaint cottage in a park-like private setting and we loved the place. Every morning we had breakfast on the deck.The dog Pudge was there to greet us when we arrived and every morning when we opened the kitchen door, she is very friendly and very obedient.We stayed for 34 days as we were 'between houses' and this place was for us just the right tonic to relax after a stressful event of selling our house and finding a new one. Fay and David are very welcoming and friendly.Highly recommended."

"We had a lovely stay in Lisa's cottage, which is brand new and tastefully decorated. Thanks Lisa!"

"The host was very welcoming and flexible with arrival times. The shed was very spacious, clean and well stocked. The location is idea for access along the coast, winery tours shopping and restaurants and is extremely private and quiet.We would highly recommend this accommodation and will certainly be using it again on our next trip that way. "

"Clean place. Good amenities. "

"Our 2 weeks at Pheasant Lodge were amazing! We were there to celebrate our good friend's birthday, so we spent every day with her family at their house. Pheasant Lodge was a welcome respite at the end of each very busy day. We loved the location, very convenient to the Abel Tasman NP, Moutere Pub, Little Kaiteriteri, Mapua, Motueka, and the lovely Gravity Vineyard. Colleen made sure that we had some gluten-free welcome food for our breakfast. After traveling for 28 hours to get there, being in this warm and peaceful home was like a warm and friendly hug. The Lodge was meticulously clean, and the extras (butter, eggs, coffee pods and milk, to name a few) were so very thoughtful. The ONLY regret is that we were so busy that we didn't get to see their sweet dog. We'll definitely stay at Pheasant Lodge when we make it back to New Zealand. Thank you. Colleen and Alby."

"Simply gorgeous. Very well thought out space. Exceptionally clean. Very warm. Enjoyed the local walks, down by the lake is suitable for pram. A little temporary baby proofing would be required by guests if the baby could crawl- which would be doable without bringing anything extra. Luckily our baby can’t quite crawl. It was all the soul goodness of hiking without carrying baby up a mountain. Hope to stay again. "

"The situation was lovely; by a pond with ducks and big trees. Very relaxing. "

"What an absolute beautiful spot. Our host was so welcoming and gave clear instructions. The property is so well set up and has clear instructions throughout. The heating systems were great. Close to everything all while feeling private. This property is now in our top 3. Clean, well presented and great location. Thanks again "

"Relaxing stay in beautiful surrounds, so nice we could bring our dog too. Lux decor and relaxing outdoor area and comfy beds... we are feeling well rested :) "
