Peaceful Location

We weren't around to enjoy nearly enough, but on the last night loved watching my Grandie enjoying running around barefoot on the lawn!The peaceful place to stay was just what was required after the busyness of my Son's wedding

Host brought us fresh tomatoes from their garden, told us to help ourselves to lemons, limes and herbs. Had a welcome bottle of wine for us. Place was clean, well cared for. Two equal en suite bedrooms working great for 2 couples. Enjoyed the outdoor space and alpacas in the field next to us. Peaceful quiet setting. Short distance to grocery store and some of the wineries. Would plan to stay here again if in the area in the future.

Alfresco with the alpacas

Lovely property set amongst the peaceful orchards and vineyards of the Tukituki valley. Immaculately clean and thoughtfully arranged, the villa has all you need- but might be a squeeze for more than two. Helpful host, thoroughly recommend.

Fabulous Find!

Absolutely an idyllic setting in the country. The hosts were so welcoming and helpful. The alpacas and gardens put it over the top for us. The cottage was well appointed, had everything we needed, had comfy beds and was spotlessly clean. Sitting the verandah in the evening was magical. We highly recommend this VRBO. You will not be disappointed.

Magic

Such a beautiful place to stay. We could adventure by day and come back and relax and take in the views by night. The cottage is decked out with everything you need, even included a list of all the vineyards and their Easter weekend opening hours. Our daughter's highlights were the alpacas, the lawn for endless cartwheels, and the visit from the Easter bunny. Thanks for sharing your beautiful spot Julie.

Beautiful and serene

We had a lovely week here - everything was extremely clean and the kitchen has everything you need. Julie was so kind as to give us a change of sheets and towels mid week which was a luxury! The kids loved the garden and the alpacas, and we loved sitting out on the deck in the evening listening to the birds. About a 15 min drive to Havelock and 25 mins to Napier. Julie has a folder full of Tipps for the area and gave us some good Tipps for stuff to do with the kids - a really cute farmyard zoo is just around the corner! Thank you Julie for a wonderful holiday!

Tuki Tuki Paradise

This is the best book a bach we have stayed in. Spotlessly clean. Wonderful attention to detail. Local wine left for you plus eggs and breakfast condiments. Invitation to pick lemons and limes, well-chosen DVDs for the kids for a rainy day. Knee rugs and a cosy heat pump. Three TVs. Surrounded by adorable lamas, sheep, picturesque apple orchards and tranquil farmland. This is the perfect book a bach!

Tranquil countryside

Great stay. Beautiful part of Hawkes Bay. We loved the evening light; looking out over fields from our very pretty, well maintained garden, was a real treat. Very efficient BBQ made for enjoyable outdoor dining. Great cycle trails nearby. Thanks for making it special for us Julie

Lovely quiet hideaway

We had a lovely few days in Hawkes Bay in the Chardonnay cottage. Very quiet and private, and very friendly and helpful host. We enjoyed the fresh bread on arrival, playing football on the well maintained lawn, and making lemonade from the abundant supply. We had our bikes and enjoyed the trails around the river, to Havelock North and Te Mata peak. We were a little disappointed that we couldn’t directly access the bike track which we could see across the paddock, having to go to the road and around the corner to get onto it. It would be good to have directions about how to do this as it took us a while to work it out! The double bed was not so comfortable being two singles pushed together so had a ridge through the middle.

Hi Hannah Thank you for choosing to stay here and taking the time to leave comments. We find the feedback valuable. The rise onto the stopbank for cycles is steep and tricky lifting over the fence but there is good access for walking. Our beds are quality Commercial standard but to have singles that fix together gives us flexibility to split them for children or single persons booking. We cover these as King Beds with electric blankets, mattress toppers and protector covers. Im pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay and we hope to see you again sometime. Warm regards Julie
