We loved this place and the hosts ! The cottage is very clean well appointed, the fire was going and the electric blankets were on when we arrived. Hans gave us a very interesting chat on the history of the station. We are already booking another stay, cant wait to go back !

Tranquil

Hosts are amazingly enthusiastic and friendly and have created a wonderfully peaceful Homestead. The cottage was everything we wanted for a couple of days getaway from the city.

Lovely peaceful get away

From the first moment of greeting, with a thorough and humourous tour, to the softness of the bath robes, the warmth of the hot pool and the crackle of the fire, we had a perfect weekend of comfort and relaxation. Would definitely recommend it!

Lovely spot to relax

This is a great place to relax and chill. Good for winter or summer, with the woodburner and the spa. Surrounded by trees, places to walk. The local pub does a mean (big!) burger, and Castlepoint is a short drive away for a walk or surf or swim. Fully kitted out kitchen, and Masterton supermarkets not far away. Wifi works fine. Perfect escape for a long weekend.

Stunning cottage

Driving down the treeladen entrance to the property heralded the beginning of our stay at Rose cottage . We were greeted warmly by Hans and he introduced us to the cottage and property . The decor and attention to detail in the cottage is difficult to describe in words,however I will endeavour. Blush walls, beautiful drapes and furniture. Fully equipped kitchen and such a comfortable bed . However ,the little touches provided by Hans were thr most memorable. A beautiful flower arrangement f fresh from the gardrn,the electric blanket turned on to warm the bed, a large bottle of organic fejoa and apple juice in the fridge and wood freshly cut for the fire . From the cottage we enjoyed its close location to Castlepoint lighthouse and a meal at thr newly refurbished Tinui Tavern. In all an unforgettble experience.
