This is the best bed and breakfast establishment we have stayed in. The accommodation is very comfortable and the hosts are lovely, nothing is too much trouble. They add lots of little touches to make your stay enjoyable.

A delight from beginning to end. The room was exactly as reflected - actually we felt like we had won the jackpot. Rayma and Phillip were just a fun couple with huge amounts of knowledge both of the area and in how to have the best of accommodation. Fabulous breakfasts and evening drinks where we got to chat and learn more about the area and local wines that flowed freely. Fantastic digs. Recommended them already.

Reyma and Phillip are the best hosts, and endeavor to provide the complete B&B experience for their guests. They include appetizers with wine tasting while they sit down with you and spend time to get to know you. Oh, there was port in the room along with chocolate, coffee or tea for your morning before a complete breakfast in their lovely dining room. And we were upgraded to their best room, large with spa bath and double sinks.
Most amazing, and this has never happened in 40 years of traveling, Phillip cleaned our dirty windshield just as we were packing up to leave.
So on a scale 1 to 10, they're a 15.
That we couldn't stay longer, but we got out just before the Cyclone Gabrielle arrived.

We spent only one night at Cobden Gardens but we wished we could have stayed longer. Rayma & Philip are the most amazing hosts - friendly, helpful and we really enjoyed sitting down for a glass of wine with them and other guests when we arrived! The made-to-order breakfast was amazing in the beautiful house. The room was big & clean with a nice view. We highly recommend this place and can’t wait to go back.

We had an amazing stay here! The hosts were so welcoming and even called to make a dinner reservation for us. We were able to spend some time with them before dinner and during breakfast (which was delicious!). The house was beautiful and clean and in a great location. Highly recommend this place for anyone staying in the Hawkes Bay area!

Big spacious bedroom and bathroom, very comfy bed and lots of little touches which all add to the enjoyment of the stay.
Particularly nice to sit on the outside deck in the evening and share a drink with the very hospitable hosts. Nice touch to get guests and hosts alike chatting away sharing experiences. Lovely outlook over the garden too.
A most generous breakfast on offer to start the day.
A quiet residential area but some very steep paths around the area and not suitable for all.

Rayma and Phillip were so friendly. We enjoyed our 6pm glass of wine and chat. The breakfasts were great. It was perfect. We were picked up and taken back to our bus stop in the city
There was nothing we didn't like - we even enjoyed the long uphill walk back to Cobden Garden to wear off our evening meal.

Cobden Gardens was a lovely place to stay. Phillip and Rayma were exceptional hosts who made us feel right at home and were gracious hosts. The room was lovely - with plenty of room and a beautiful view of the countryside. It was close to the central business district restaurants and they even called to set up a dinner reservation one night. Each evening there was wine and snacks on the porch overlooking their garden which was a delightful addition to our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Napier and with Phillip and Rayma.

Rayma and Phillip know well what customer service means,
The wine, breakfast, and music were amazing.

We loved the view from our upstairs bedroom (and the sunroom next to it )of the mature trees in the garden and the sea beyond. It was a large comfortable bedroom with en-suite- tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. The breakfasts were delicious, fresh and generous as were the other offerings of wine and hors d’oeuvres before we went to dine in town. Returning to warmed beds(electric blankets on) and treats felt special. It was convivial to chat with the hosts and other guest . My special dietary requests were catered for easily. Rayma and Phillip were cheerful, thoughful hosts of a lovely historic home.
I was sorry we left before we had the chance to explore the garden, but enjoyed seeing birds and quail feeding there in the morning from my window.

Review from my parents who stayed in the weekend ❤️...
It was the best place we have ever stayed in, better than any hotel! Fabulous, caring and warm hosts.
Rayma & Phillip welcomed us to their beautiful home and gardens and told us the history of their home. Our room was so lovely, with a comfortable bed and nice ensuite. All the extra things they did were amazing, such as turning our bed back and leaving a nightcap drink and chocolates while we were out for dinner. The welcoming drinks and delicious canapes and excellent company were greatly appreciated. The superb breakfast, it was far better than any hotel breakfast. Thank you so much Rayma and Phillip, we can't wait to return again!! 🤗
