About this house rental
We live opposite the holiday home so we are available on-call to help with any problems with regard to extra items required, something not working or advice on local attractions or how to get anywhere!
Generally children are treated as an extra guest as they are still using a bed and all facilities.
A fully furbished 3 bedroom home, all towels and linen supplied, beds made up etc. Just walk in and enjoy a home away from home. We supply corporate/staff accommodation on a regular basis for those companies where it's important that each guest has their own bedroom and space.
Originally designed and built as a Devon Cottage, it has since had an extra bedroom and living area added to it and has been fully refurbished with new luxurious carpeting and bamboo hardwood flooring and art decor.
Very private and generous outdoor entertaining area including BBQ and outdoor furniture.
It can offer:
· 3 bedrooms (sleeps up to six) (2 bedrooms have queen
beds, the other has two single beds, and we can add a
foldaway bed in emergencies) all brand new.
· 2 living areas (one for watching TV etc, the other for
reading/wireless internet activity)
· Brand new floor coverings throughout.
· Fully equipped kitchen with all utensils, full size refrigerator,
dishwasher etc
· Laundry complete with washing machine
· Fujitzu aircon/heatpump
· Wheelchair access including shower area and shower chair
Wireless internet access
If you Google the location you can't see the property because it is located up a private ROW. We live on the opposite side of the driveway so we are able to provide security and immediate assistance for any issues that arise.

Calm and restful. Only in New Zealand for a few days, but would stay again.

We had a very comfortable 2 night stay at Brian’s place. We were a family of four, three adults and one toddler under 2. Everything we needed for our stay was available esp kitchen amenities. The house is beautiful with a well maintained lovely garden, and a short drive away from Mount Maunganui. Highly recommend!

What a wonderful holiday, in such a beautiful cottage. Really happy with our stay, and Brian and Sandy couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating hosts. We will certainly be booking again on our next trip to NZ!!

We loved the position which was handy for Bethlehem, Tauranga city and the Mount. The house had a good layout and we particularly enjoyed the air conditioning. Lovely outside area also

Sandy was there to meet us, Brian came over later to check we were ok.
As their card says "Home away from Home" and it surely was. The gardens are incredible, all Sandy's work.

I was looking for a house to stay in, which could also accommodate my Mum who lives in a resthome in Tauranga. Devon Cottage was perfect. Quiet and clean with a lovely garden (I loved the lemons!). I hope to stay again on my next trip. Thanks!

The house worked well for our stay in Tauranga. It was expensive but we left our Easter booking very late. The house is very well fitted out and everything was in working order. Possibly could add some shower soap in a dispenser.

A lovely cosy little house full of kiwiana décor and art work. The kitchen is stocked with every utensil, dish and appliance you could ever need while on holiday. The most picturesque garden and welcoming hosts. A little tight on car space but we had a large vehicle. We used the property as a base while visiting family over Christmas and were out most of the day but the house was perfect for our needs.

Thank you so much for Brain and Sandra to accept my booking via Bookabach! You are helpful and provide a very comfortable place for us to stay in Tauranga, just like our home. Even it was a short trip, we enjoy staying in your house which is located in quiet cul de sac, calm, safe and peaceful. I highly recommend Devon Cottage to other customers! Many thanks to Sandra and Brian!
