Great stay
Only gripe was, we had an issue with ants. They were all through one of the beds, and in spots all around the house. Have told host so hopefully they sort it. Otherwise perfect stay.

LOVELY COTTAGE
The description is 100% accurate. The cottage is surrounded by beautiful trees, very quite and private. It had everything we needed. Loved the fire, especially on the chilly evenings. Will definitely be back if we are in the area again.

Wairarapa revisited
Very attractive cottage with everything we needed. Lovely cuddly towels and crisp sheets. Cold weather so made the most of the large fire box and generous wood supply. Very quiet. Pleasant hosts located next door.
