Great cottage.

We loved the cottage, one of the best we have stayed in. The owners had thought of everything we could possibly need. The cottage was very warm, clean and in a great location, just 5 minutes from town but in a lovely rural setting. Highly recommended.

Farm stay review

My sister and I immensely enjoyed our stay. We found our accommodation very clean, warm and tidy with comfortable beds, little road noise, no annoying street lights and woke to beautiful bird song in the morning. Our hosts were very friendly, helpful and we enjoyed our farm tour with goats, deer and hens. Thankyou for such an enjoyable experience.

We were a little worried that the property would be too far out of town, and were pleasantly surprised to find that it was actually quite close to Dunedin and the CBD, and was easy and quick to get to by car. The accommodation was ample for our family of four, and we really appreciated the kitchen setup and supplies, and the wonderful bottle of milk.
Response from VrboOwner on 27 Mar, 2020
Yes we have a very direct route to the centre of Dunedin and only a 10 min drive, yet you get to benefit the semi rural atmosphere. Glad you enjoyed your stay.

Absolute gem

The part of Wingatui I grew upnin has been consumed by property developers now, but Height of Dunedin gave me the dawn chorus of birds and Little Owls calling at night that I remember from childhood. The visitor friendly farm animals were fun, especially the goats ... so much personality. Ngaire made us welcome with some lovely personalised touches, accomodated extra family staying over and the place was warm and cosy in some pretty wild weather. Loved our stay there. Thank you so much.

Beautifully Appointed Home, limited kitchen

The owner is on site, so was very responsive to needs. Everything needed was provided, and the owner left lots of information about things to see and do in the area and places to eat. The mini bar concept in a vrbo was a little confusing to us, so we did not use any of the food items except hot beverages (which seemed to be a standard offering in NZ vrbos). The bedroom and bathroom were both fantastic but, if you're more than a couple, be aware that the extra bed is at one end of the common area and the bathroom is accessed through the bedroom door.

Thanks Karen for leaving us a review. I have made some additional comments in the Rooms and Spaces section to address the bathroom access which you can also see in the photos. Our listing says it is a 1 bedroom/ 2 room cottage without kitchenette and is generally suited to a couple or family. Also on the listing description and amenities it states that our locals breakfast is included in the price. We also offer upgrade options for full continental or a pancake kit and our snack menu (additional/ larger quantities of items that we'd deliver to you). As you mentioned we live on-site and are always approachable with any questions/ clarification you may have. Best regards, Ngaire

Catch up with whanau

Ngaire was incredibly accomodating with our one week stay. She provided absolutley everything we needed to feed, bath and entertain a toddler. When we arrived my boy was straight into the toys laid out for him. The farm tour was a higlight for him with goats, chicken and deer.The place was beautiful and peaceful a welcome retreat from our busy days. The sunrise and sunsets were stunning. Great location to access Dunedin city and mosgiel. Kitchenette with microwave,jug and bbq. Other cooking items such as cooking pans and pots on request. We will defintely look to stay here again on our next visit. Thank you Ngaire and family.The setting is beautifully peacefusp

The cottage itself is lovely in the farmlike surrounds and would be a fatastic place to stay in the summer. however the heatpump struggled to keep up with the intense dunedin cold! Single glassed windows leaked badly and we had to leave the heatpump on 24hrs to keep the place reasonably warm.. The beds were comfy and good quality.
Response from VrboOwner on 27 Mar, 2020
Thanks for your feedback. It was a surprise that an unannounced snow fall hit on the night you arrived. It can definitely be cold in Dunedin so we stock the cottage with extra warm bedding to ensuite you have a comfortable sleep. We're pleased to advise we have improved the cottage for on those chilly nights by instaling a Ventilator. This is a heat transfer unit that promotes warm dry air and has greatly reduced any condensation.
