About this cottage rental
This cottage is conveniently located near to Havelock North and Hastings, being only 5 minutes from Havelock North and less than 15 minutes from Hastings city centre. It is built within a 2 hectare (five acre) lifestyle block, being about 100 metres distance from the main residence. It is very private, has extensive rural views and is set within nicely maintained grounds. The Louisa Stream (hence the cottage name) runs nearby, and parents of young children must provide necessary supervision. Please note: WE DO NOT CHARGE FOR CHILDREN UNDER 3 YEARS OLD, SO DO NOT COUNT THEM AS A GUEST. The cottage is not suitable for wheelchair access.
Thre is a secure floor safe suitable for passports, cash, valuables etc. Please ask if you want a key to this safe.
The cottage enjoys all day sun, with both a North and a West facing deck. There is a stunning view south towards Mount Erin, and because there is little light pollution, the night sky is spectacular.
There is a large hedge separating the cottage grounds from the adjoining property, which is planted with vegetables.
The owners have pet hens and a rooster. If the hens co-operate (they are rather temperamental) they may produce some eggs for our guests! The birds are about 60 metres distance from the cottage. There is other birdlife around, including Pukekos who can screech at night.
Special conditions:
Guests must set our intruder alarm to armed when they are out.
We do not want any smoking on our property.
The decks are only about 400mm high, but have no railing so may not be suitable for small children unless supervised.
No pets.
Extras: Cleaning (included); Linen (included);

Really enjoyed our stay. Cottage is immaculately clean, generously equipped with wonderfully thoughtful hosts

My girlfriend and I met up from either ends of the island for a catch up. Louisa Cottage was perfect. Excellent location for the village, the shops, restaurants and the vineyards. Julie and Eddie are on hand for any queries and Julie’s home made produce is delicious. The chickens were generous with their eggs! The house is very well equipped, warm and spotless. Next visit already planned for summer.

We had a fantastic 3-night stay in Eddie and Julie's cottage. They made such kind accommodations for our baby and toddler, including setting up a portacot and high chair. The cottage is full of thoughtful touches, and the bed is very comfy! Lovely peaceful setting in beautiful grounds. Thanks Eddie and Julie!

We loved our stay at Louisa Cottage.
Julie and Eddie were the best hosts we have had. They provided lots of delicious treats and were warm and friendly, but let us get on with our holiday. Private, very comfortable cottage close to Havelock North. 10/10 for us.

Probably one of the best stays we gave experienced. Lovely hosts and a wonderful accomodation with everything you need and more. So comfortable and well equiped. Close to everything but enough out of town to feel rural. Just a spectacular stay and we will be back for sure!

Was travelling with mum - this amazing property met every need and more. Hosts were lovely and so accommodating, especially with our unintentional late arrival. They were attentive to all our needs while still giving us our space. The homemade/grown goodies an exra treat. It was lovely to open the curtains each day to see little critters exploring their world outside - rabbits, doves, ducks, quail, hovering hawkes. The setting was very private and quiet, the photos just don't do it justice. The house is refreshingly modern in an English elegance style - it felt like "home" the moment we stepped through the door. Loved the vase of fresh roses that were in full bloom on the property. Highly recommend, will be staying again in the future :)

Comfortable warm and cosy. Lovely environment with relaxing atmosphere. Well setup cottage with e verything you could want. Maybe some signage would help to find the place is the only constructive criticism I could make.
We would be happy to stay again.

This is a beautiful presented home, it's not a bach, or converted building, this is a home, the Louisa House is just that, with everything you need on arrival and settle in for your stay. With fresh produce from the owners who show you round on arrival and make you feel special to share this experience. If you have never been and looking for a little get away would well recommend. We will be booking again for our next trip to Hawkes Bay.

A beautiful cottage and very homely. Hosts go out of their way to ensure your stay is the best possible.
A personal note is that some maybe travelling for work. A small desk would be a real winner as the dining table isn’t understandably comfortable you can sit at all day.
Credit to the hosts who show their pride in this cottage and visitors.
