Location good. Kaye was lovely and approachable. House was clean. Bed linen and towels fresh and clean. Kitchen small but decent. House is a little dated but quirky. Armchairs firm so good for reading but not so good for putting your feet up to watch tv.
Sadly the bathroom was disappointing, but Kaye acknowledged this. Its very dated and duct tape on tiles was a surprise. Kaye wants to upgrade and l think this is much needed. It was clean and shower was basic but fine so it served its purpose. Also more instructions in the paper list left out would be better. Things like where when to put rubbish/ upcycle and how to work heating.

a bit dated but didn’t ruin our stay

Location is awesome, really close to everything you need, and not a big drive to Wellington or Zealandia. Spacious cottage with access to the spa (which was brilliant). Wi-Fi worked really well and was quiet considering it’s proximity to the main house. Overall very pleasant and comfortable stay.
Slightly musty smell when we moved in, and a little hot upstairs in the summer.

This is truly a home away from home, in a nice neighbourhood and walking distance to a supermarket (in Karori Road) and a great café (in Gipps St). It’s spacious and well-equipped. The bedding is cotton rather than synthetic and the beds are comfortable. The host Kaye was very welcoming when we arrived, and showed us where everything is. The cookware was high quality rather than Teflon.

we loved the spa pool. It was warm on a cool rainy day.
The location is blessed with native birds, including kaka who have been absent from built up areas for a hundred years.
The cottage is well appointed, with a TV; stove; radio; two toilets a bath and a shower. The beds were cozy. Everything was clean, crisp and colour co ordinated.

Locality suited us well
A mirror near a power socket would have been great to use the hairdryer.

The spa was a lovely option
The easy travel options into town were excellent and shops were close
The owners left us to do our own thing but made us aware they were available if we needed them for anything.
The facilities within the premises were extremely good

Great location. Nice and quiet, tucked away privately behind the main residence. Loved the spa pool. Comfy beds, and very nice linen, especially the sheets. Walking distance to the local village, where we ate out.

Quirky little place. Perfect place to stay.
7.0
Situated in a very quiet suburban street with off street parking. Easy private access to property which was well lit at night. Extremely comfortable bed. Lovely to be able to light a very efficient open fire but a heat pump also kept the place warm.
The shower would have been nicer with a glass cubicle (wall) along the side of the bath rather than a shower curtain. The somewhat old style of toilet cisterns took a little getting used to to make a sure that the toilet flushed properly without the water continuing to run.

Good location close to Zealandia. Well equipped. Loved the spa
