Book a Totara Cottage

"What a fantastic house for a big group. There were six of us ladies and we had plenty of space with our own rooms and plenty of bathrooms too. It was perfect for the dog with the estuary and beach being so close. The kitchen was very well stocked so preparing food was easy. Communication with the host was always quick and friendly. To top it all off we had wonderful decks to follow the sun around the house and the fire kept us cosy. Loved our stay. We'll be back!"

"Nice quiet bach"

"Grafton Cottage was so fantastic we changed our stay from 1 night to 3 nights after the first night. Albie (owner) is very personable and accommodating - just basically lovely. The chalet we had our first night was a cute bedsit and had a good view out over the bay. Full cooking facilities, lots of hot water and a spa & pool right by the door. After the first night we loved it so much we asked Albie if we could stay another 2 nights and he had a 2 story chalet free for us which he only charged the bedsit price. The view was even better. We spent 2 days sipping beer in the spa and reading as rain rolled over the bay - snug and warm and comfortable. We were on a bicycling trip and were able to securely store our bikes in the garage onsite and Albie ran us into town one night (rainy and cold) to go to dinner free of charge. We will definately stay there again and would recommend to anyone looking for somewhere in the Thames area."

"Lovely private spot with gorgeous views"

"Love it good private location with lots to do close by"

"Irene was very good to deal with from start to finish, she also upgraded us at not extra cost to the inside apartment which was very nice to stay in. The location of the property was great only 1min away to harbour water."

"Quiet and clean. A little hidden gem. Would recommend this place. Definitely stay here again."

"We spent four days at this property. It's in a lovely location, wonderful views and a neat and clean house. We couldn't find a couple of kitchen basics (coffee plunger, frying pan) but the breakfast was great (eggs, toast, muesli, fruit, milk etc) and all the other things that you'd expect were available. Thanks for a great stay!"

"Enjoyable stay"
