Idyllic rural getaway

We were staying in the area to attend a family reunion and this cottage was perfect for us. 10 minutes from Papamoa where our event was based, it provided us a beatiful and peaceful setting to relax inbetween other activities. Beautiful spaces both inside and outside, it had everything we needed and more. would definitely recommend.

Friendly, clean, comfortable

Apart from lack of washing machine and unreliable wifi, strongly recommend. Secluded with a waterfall at the end of the rd 4 km away. Clean, on a lovely allotment, quiet and very friendly and helpful owners.
