About this cottage rental
Our little self-contained cabin is set on a small private section in the quiet neighbourhood just minutes by foot from New Plymouth's magnificent Pukekura Park. Surrounded by trees and garden, it has a private bedroom with a shower and toilet attached. Next door a separate conservatory space has a kitchen sink (along with kettle, microwave, toaster and hot plate), a cafe table and chairs and a chaise longue. It looks on to our house and garden. We have a friendly medium sized dog as well as chickens. We need our visitors to be vaccinated as we have people in our family who are immune compromised

Convenient location close to Pukekura Park, small cabin in garden setting. Comfortable bed and ensuite, kitchen facilities separate and fairly minimal for self catering.

Just needed a base while visiting family.
Took my small dog with me and it was great. Very friendly couple. A little odd the bedroom with ensuite was seperate from the conservatory that had the kitchen so you had to go outside to move between the 2 rooms. However it worked for my needs.

Perfect for our event at the Bowl of Brooklands. Shirley the host, is really friendly. The accommodation itself is perfect for a single or couple. All you need for a short getaway.
Lovely gardens and Lola the dog is so cute!
Only suggestion is for a pair of scissors for the kitchen area please.
We would love to come back and stay again next time we are in New Plymouth. Thank you

This is a lovely quiet batch, basic amenities, pleasant owners, would make an amazing place to stay if you have booked into an activity such as Womad at Brooklands. Enjoyed the sounds of the birds on the roof of kitchen area.

The accommodation was small but self-contained and comfortable for a short stay. Hosts were very friendly and were on hand to provide helpful advice on things to see and do. Lovely little garden and sunny spot with a friendly dog! Great location to be based for access to Pukekura park and the city.

We had a lovely 3 night getaway here. Very close to Pukekura Park and an easy commute by car or e.bike into town. The gardens at the property were gorgeous and Shirley and her family were available but not intrusive.
Would recommend this accommodation.

Wonderful quiet little spot near necessities and Pukehura Park. Shirley and Mark were great hosts. We especially loved the tip about the evening testing of the lights for the Festival of the Lights as we won’t be in NP when it starts in a few days. And as berry growers from the US, we liked finding out where we could get “the best berries in New Zealand”. Thanks for a wonderful stay in a wonderful part of New Zealand!

Tucked away on a beautiful property up a shared driveway. A lovely one bedroom self contained bungalow, kitchen is separate, set on your own little wooden deck, overlooking the hosts garden. Private and perfect for a get away for a weekend. Small dogs are welcome. Hosts have a lovely dog, very sweet personality. Parking is on the street. Stay was perfect, will definitely visit again.

The physical layout of this property is a little unusual in that you have to take a few steps outside to walk between the bedroom and the kitchen/sitting area (which was added on later). And there is not a ton of extra space if, like us, you tend to haul too much stuff with you. But it’s a comfortable place, with a nice bed and a robust shower. And the owners, Shirley and Dave, are very nice, friendly folks with helpful suggestions about the city and region. They also have an impressive garden and a very sweet dog! We would stay there again.

Pleasant and easy for a weekend in New Plymouth
Hosts were great, place was as described. Probably wouldn’t be somewhere to stay if we were wanting to spend a lot of time “at home”, as the conservatory/kitchen is small, but as a base it was perfect. Pukekura Park is nearby and it’s a half hour walk through the park to town. We would happily stay again.

Great little inner city cabin
I spent about 45 days here and Dave and Shirley were great hosts. The location is close to the city and parks. I would recommend the cabin as a good little place away from the hotels if you are looking for a good little getaway in New Plymouth.

This accommodation was peaceful, pleasant and a separate living area was made available. The hostess was warm, welcoming and made sure everything was fine throughout the stay. Would recommend to a single person or couple wanting a quiet place to stay but still within easy reach of town.
