We loved the place. It was quaint, in a good location and private. There was plenty of space to have family come and stay. We stayed in the cooler weather and the fireplace was great. It warmed the place up well. However photos need updating and it would have been nice to have the lawn mowed and outdoor furniture clean. We stayed for nine days and had good weather. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would revisit again.

My husband and I and our Springer Spaniel stayed here for a much needed long weekend and had a fabulous time! Fantastic place to stay, great location and Greytown is such a dog friendly place we couldn’t have asked for more! Would definitely stay here again. Very comfortable, great sized garden and lived using the pool on the hot days!

Great little cottage and grounds. Good location. Just a couple of things that could improve...there was no coffee, no body wash and no dry firewood other than a few logs in the basket. Our dog enjoyed the big grassy section!

Great location for a family holiday

Close to Clareville Cafe for lunch, Masterton Saturday market, Wairarapa south coast adventures & Greytown shopping (including top Butcher). And home base citrus trees. Teenagers (& Adults) loved the pool

Nearly very good

Overall ticks all the right boxes.Just one thing, the lawns could have been mown.Our shoes got very wet going to and from the car.

Thanks for your review! Apologies re the grass. The mowing is done regularly by a local company. They have struggled a bit this year with all the wet weather.

A little gem

We had the best time ever. The pool was a godsend in the heat wave and the kids had a blast. We were sad to depart. The fresh plums were also divine! Definitely coming back.

Weekend away

Loved this little cottage! Great feel inside - plenty of character, warm and snuggly. Appreciated there being a couple of board games too as we'd forgotten to bring any. Perfect space for the dog outside - back section, well fenced and lots of space. Loved seeing the productive trees and plants all around too. Big thank you.

Thanks for staying Fiona and so glad you enjoyed the cottage and section. The fruit trees are my greatest joy - perhaps only second to the pool on a very hot Wairarapa summer’s day! I hope you will return.

Pool was a huge hit with the 6 year old!

Wonderful for a short summer stay. Our 6 year old loved the pool as did we on the 29 degree and very humid day - also appreciated the fans! We didn’t realise there was no linen or towels provided but the host did inform us of this before we arrived so we were able to arrange some from friends…visiting from Melbourne and loved our short stay.

Greytown getaway

A great location. Tidy property. Would have been nice to have some kindling to get fire started easily. Was cosy once we had it going. Was a bit muddy - some pavers between the house and cabin would be good. Thanks

3 nights with the Grandkids

A relaxing vibe. It was hot so a lot of time was spent in the pool. The kids were easy to watch, and didn’t want to go anywhere else. The dog loved it. The supermarket was close and the BBQ was used each night. The wisteria provided shade and the stars were glorious. 5/5 from us. Thanks for sharing your magical place - much appreciated

Home from home

We stayed for 3 months while our own property was being renovated. It's down a right of way with a big garden (with lemon and mandarin trees) and is quiet and safe for children and pets. It is very cosy on cooler days with its log burner. We didn't get to use the pool, but it was serviced regularly while we were there, and the water was warming up nicely as we were leaving. Communication with our host was excellent. We loved this cute little place and highly recommend it.

Didn't want to leave

Fabulous and cute cottage tucked down a right of way in beautiful Greytown. The bed was soooo comfy and I enjoyed the little log burner on the cold nights. I didn't partake of the pool - a bit chilly in mid winter but I could imagine the outdoor being amazing in summer. Everything you need and more. I loved the rustic decor. 15 minutes walk into the Winter Festival. Perfect quiet spot. I will definitely be back if I'm in the area.

Thank you so much for your review and kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. And yes the pool is definitely a summer thing when it is heated by water circulating through panels on the roof.

Lovely but...

The location is great and it is lovely to find a place that allows pets to stay. The fire was excellent and kept the cabin lovely and warm. Lovely pool but we didn't make use of it due to the weather.Unfortunately, this place was let down by the cleaning. It was OK, but needed a good vacuum and the bathroom bin had not been emptied. There were a few other smaller issues that were easily fixed.
