About this property

Milton Manors - 101 Pet Friendly House on the Hill

This charming 1928 bungalow sits in the heart of Bluff Hill, Napier and is a short walk to many restaurants and cafes. Dine in or out, a fully equipped kitchen means the choice is yours. Enjoy the morning sun when you open the French doors to a sunny, private deck and paved patio or snuggle in and relax in the ambiance of the warm gas fired fireplace. Unlimited wifi, free to view tv and blue tooth stereo means the entertainment options can fit your unique style and choice.
A seasoned traveler, Mary has created a haven with many special touches; superior linens (100% cotton) and towels and a helpful host who lives just a couple of doors away. Oh and she will consider pets by prior arrangement as she knows how nice it is to travel with your pooch - (that's Betty her cavalier king charles spaniel in the photos - who does NOT live at 101:)

Awesome cottage in a fantastic part of Napier

Excellent quality accomodation, ease of checking in through to lovely furnishings and extras - cotton towels, body wash, washing up liquid etc. Great location a few minutes drive from central Napier or walking distance if preferred. Fully fenced section which was child friendly, and great heating options for those colder nights. Thanks again team.

Little Napier Gem

Clean and modern home close to everything - owner is friendly and organised and thoughtful - she left some milk in the fridge which was fantastic and our little dog was able to come. The gas fireplace was amazing as was having an en-suite with a heated floor and heat lights. Fresh linen and towels provided - it was great to be able to arrive and leave so easily. Fenced section perfect for our dog and young child. Kitchen well stocked with everything you need and has a dishwasher. Wifi was also much appreciated. Even brochures on local attractions were provided.

Dream Stay!

Absolutely amazing property, lovely to sit in the sun outside with a wine on the loungers. Great big kitchen with so many amenities. Large bedrooms with big soft beds, amazing feather pillows! Air con was absolutely needed and appreciated. And the extra fan too! We loved staying here, it was tidy, clean, modern and just a really fantastic stay. Great location - although a little scary the driveway being close to a blind corner, but a lot of the streets in napier are windy and the locals must be used to it. Didn't have any trouble or issues. Thanks for an amazing well priced stay!

Lovely stay on the hill

Greatly enjoyed our stay at this property. Comfy beds (love the feather down pillows and Duvet!) the house is well appointed and has great shower pressure. Made use of the Webber Q BBQ out the back and the island kitchen is great. Will be staying here again for sure. Thanks Mary for being such a great host.

I live nearby with Betty, my cavalier king charles spaniel who is friendly and we often stop by and say hello upon arrival.
Please feel free to ask any questions or let me know if you have special requests. I can stock the frig with some basics if required.

Why they chose this property

101 was built in 1924 and has a charming cottage look. I purchased the property 5 years ago and it was in total disrepair. I did a complete renovation and pretty much rebuilt the entire interior. It is now fully insulated with two bathrooms and many modern amenities.

What makes this property unique

The home is only used for airbnb and a thorough clean is performed after each stay. A perfect situation for traveling workers as you have a full kitchen and laundry. No need to eat out. Groceries can be delivered from local grocery stores as well as several takeaways via uber.
Fast, unlimited broadband supplied.
Efficient gas fire provides heat and ambiance. Full kitchen complete with all you need to cook or just hang out. Off street parking is available for up to two cars and yard is fully fenced.
Pets allowed but please only by prior arrangement and approval.
Sunny and private outdoor living with 4 seater table with umbrella, weber BQ and bean bag chairs.
Please note that there is extensive use of down bedding (pillows, comforters and pillow top mattress pads) as well as down bolster pillows on couch (this is posted for those with allergies).
All bedding is 100% cotton.
Full kitchen with gas stove, full oven, dishwasher and everything you need to cook. Also perfect for executive travel in the time of covid as you are able to work from the property with unlimited hi speed wifi and can cook or have meals/groceries delivered to your doorstep.
