Peace, tranquility, luxury and delightful hosts

Beautiful location. Hosts very welcoming and everything provided was over and above expectations including fresh bread and muffins to homemade cookies. Wonderful,we would highly recommend it.

It wasn’t easy to find and further out of Russell than anticipated but the views and peace, quiet and beautiful views more than made up for initial disappointment.

The breakfast was outstanding with fresh baked bread and muffins and a sublime view and surroundings!

Nothing could have been better except a longer stay.

The location and tranquillity was outstanding, however the property was not like the photos.

Breakfast consisted cornflakes, freshly made muffins or warm rolls/sour dough, cooked each morning by Jenny and delivered to the door by Peter, which were lovely. stunning views.

Strawberries in the fruit bowl were rotten and had to be discarded. The property was very tired, the fly screen on the patio doors fell off repeatedly and the shower was barely a trickle. The Wifi was not good enough to work phone payment, even Peters laptop would not connect in the apartment, resulting in us paying in cash for our stay.

Coastal paradise for family vacation

The cottage is very cozy, with fragrant flowers at bedside, and birds chirping outside the veranda. Stephen next door always greeted us with nice suggestions for local sightseeing. He even gave us a bottle of home made honey to enjoy. We like the serenity of this coastal hideout.

There is mosquito around at this season, so some mosquito repellant would be helpful.

Relaxing but overall disappointing for the price.

Position was fantastic. Relaxed ambience.

Very different to advertised Bay of Cottages. Cereal, fruit, yogurt and bread provided…no hot breakfast. Boat area unkept and not able to be used. A quick word from one owner - not seen again for the 2 days we were there. Wi-fi unreliable. Highly overpriced for service provided.

Her thoughtfulness extended to providing essentials for our baby, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Peter and Jenny were fantastic hosts, engaging us in delightful conversations.

It is located in a beautiful part of the country with plenty to see and do.

The accommodation was very peaceful and quiet, just what we enjoy. Peter and Jenny went out of their way to accommodate our somewhat challenging diet.

Lovely cottage out of the tourist trap, surrounded by beautiful gardens with Tui in the trees.

Wonderful location not far from Russell township but far enough away to have peace & quiet and lovely views. Delicious breakfast each day, delivered with a smile. Very private self contained cottage with main room & bedroom opening out onto wonderful deck with table & chairs. Great place to eat breakfast.

Nothing we didn't like. We had stayed here before and we enjoyed the place so much we wanted to return.

All the needed facility inside. And the breakfast,omg! The most delicious homemade breakfast we could have ! Loved the place and 100 percent recommend it and will go back!

The perfect couple getaway to relax and refresh, in a great location with delicious breakfasts!

The most delicious breakfasts every morning! Thank you for spoiling us with your amazing culinary skills, Jenny. We loved the tranquility amongst the gardens and native birds, our own cottage had everything you needed and more with lots of privacy and of course the location, no matter the weather, is always beautiful.

The bed was a bit too firm and the wifi connection weakened so we had to use our own data, nothing major to complain about though.

Absolutely peaceful and relaxing. Great memories.

Jenny is a fabulous cook and we found her breakfasts were better in quality and taste than anything we bought out. It was also a very short drive (5-10 mins) to several beaches and the town centre. Peter was also incredibly friendly and personable. The wifi was also very patchy but it was actually nice to disconnect from the digital world for the week. We would absolutely stay there again.

The sofa was well loved and could have been more comfortable when unwinding in the evenings.
