Northland escape

A great place, nestled amongst beautiful fruit trees that you could smell when you walk outside. Added bonus was the ability to enjoy some of the fruit.Place was suitable for us, 2 kids and 3 adults. Comfortable and close to Kerikeri centre

Ideal little spot

We loved our stay here! Communication with our host was effortless, the cottage is sweet and has lots of little bonuses for families (baby chair for kiddo, baby bath, bbq, etc), and we loved the outdoor space. The covered deck was great in the rain and our little one had the best time roaming around the orchard. The plums! It was perfect for our multi generational family getaway and we would definitely stay here again.

Lovely location

Thoroughly enjoyed our time, with plenty of space for 4 adults. Glad the outside deck is fully covered as it rained everyday. Didn't realise that there wasn't a washing machine, but managed without it anyway.

Tranquil, cozy and private

We stayed at Laurel Rose Cottage while on our Northland holiday. It was the perfect spot being so close to Kerikeri and central to other places we were visiting. We loved chilling out on the deck in the evening, wandering through the gorgeous garden and sampling oranges from the orchard while enjoying the company of native birds. The cottage had everything we needed and was super clean. We especially loved the unique furniture pieces and art throughout the cottage.

Lovely rural setting

We really enjoyed the peace and sense of outdoor space. No looking into neighbour's property here, just nature, mature gardens and more. Loved squeezing oranges too. Thanks, really enjoyed our stay.

A Little Slice of Paradise

The setting is stunning, the house was extremely clean and slightly quirky with regards to some of the furnishing, we loved this. There was everything you would ever need and more. The hosts Laurel and Steve were brilliant as was the caretaker. We will definitely return and will recommend Laurel Rose Cottage to others
