Loved the property - very cute little cottage close to town. Comfortable beds, furnished well, and had everything that we needed. Pet friendly too (note that it’s not fully fenced however).

Gorgeous cottage stay

This is a lovely comfortable house with plenty of spaces to relax and enjoy, comfortable beds, stylish decor and we loved the out door shower. Bonus if you spotted the cheeky weka living out back. Super quick walk to Russell restaurants & wharf.
