About this property

Cosy cabin semi-rural

Our self-contained compact cabin is well appointed, double glazed and fully insulated. We are on the edge of Featherston town on a lifestyle property with three donkeys (Phoebe, Anna and Lily), two dogs (Lucy and Ruby) and a cat (August). The cabin is private from our house and looks out across paddocks to the mighty Remutakas and Tararua Ranges. There is a covered BBQ area and an outdoor bath.

We are a leisurely 10 minute stroll into town (supermarket, famous cheese shop - C'est Cheese, Artisan Baker, cafes, hotels, restaurants and bookshops). Martinborough - wineries, boutique shopping, cafes and restaurants, is a 15 minute drive and Greytown is 18 minutes drive away. Tarureka Estate is a brisk 5 minute walk. Rose & Smith a 3 minute drive.

*Please refrain from cooking highly fragrant meals in Cabin, e.g. curries, fish.

Comfortable, Clean and Quiet. Definitely a Cosy Cottage.

A perfect location for a get-away. The cottage was easy to find and the rural backdrop made for a relaxing stay. It was a pity we didn’t have time to enjoy the outdoor bath … maybe next-time.

Feels like home

My partner and I really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful homey cabin. The owner was so kind and welcoming and even allowed us to feed some of the farm animals (donkeys and piggy). We had a delightful time and will definitely be coming back to stay again in future

Sensational Stay!

I had the best 3 nights and four days in the Wairarapa whilst staying in the Cozy Cabin, looked after well by the host, Tracy, and kept in good company by the gorgeous Phoebe and Anna (donkeys), the outgoing Sophie (Kune Kune pig) and dignified August (cat). I miss them already! The Cabin was perfect for my needs: warm (cozy!), clean, tidy, modern and comfortable…and close to all the places I wanted to visit: Mount Holdsworth, Waiohine Gorge, Fensham Bush Sanctuary and the wider Wairarapa townships of Featherston, Greytown and Carterton…and the Claireville Bakery for their pies and Doughnuts.

Cosy cabin indeed

We really enjoyed our stay at the cosy cabin. It was well fitted out with thoughtful things to help us enjoy our stay even more. The surroundings were quiet and peaceful. The donkeys would often wander by to say hi. It was only a short drive to Featherston if you needed something. The room is 'cosy' , so you do need to juggle your big bags if you have them. We'll be back!
