Testimonials

Wharangi Cottage Nov 24

A little piece of paradise in rural NZ, this place actually exceeded our expectations. The house itself is very stylishly decorated and quite a pleasure to arrive to. The beds are super comfy and with beautiful linen. The kitchen is nicely stocked with good quality crockery and cooking utensils and all in all it's a really inviting and comfortable space.

Such a lovely place to stay, we loved the friendly sheep, cicadas, bellbirds and farm animals. comfy beds, beautiful bathroom, great deck and furniture. A few more small bowls perhaps for nibbly bits, and the small fridge was a bit of a challenge for a 5 day stay.
