Wellington - Eastbourne 2 bedrm beachfront cottage with WiFi

The lounge has a sofa bed, so the cottage can accommodate 6. Sea views from main bedroom, lounge and dining. Gas central heating.

There is lots to do - relax in the cottage, enjoy the outdoors, walk in the bush or cycle around the coast. Swim out to the raft which is moored directly in front of the cottage in the summer time.

Sit in the front garden or on the sea-wall and watch the Inter-islander ferries go by - if you are lucky you might see some Orcas which are regularly seen each year. Stroll down the beach to the village shops, cafes and restaurants.

The cottage is ideal as a romantic retreat or for a relaxing family holiday or a quick get away from the city.

Stunning harbour sunsets direct from lounge
Beautifully presented warm heritage home with stunning harbour views. Photos on walls show the history of both the house and Eastbourne itself. If you are looking for a place to chill then this is it. Continous mains pressure hot water makes for great showers and quick filling of the outdoor bath - spectacular place to relax after cycling around Pencarrow head. Will definitely will stay again!

As close to the ocean as possible
A beautiful home, with a wonderful view. It was nice to get away from the city and have a comfortable place to relax, but still be close enough for any of the city activities. A truly wonderful property, and a highlight experience.

Little gem by the sea
Great spot to stay in Eastbourne area. Plop yourself down here and relax in this very unique slice of paradise. We loved our stay, the views, the rolling waves, running out to the beach, having dinner in front patio, an outdoor bath. Take a sunset stroll along the esplanade and a morning walk to the shops for coffee, pastries, fresh produce… 5* stay but couple things to note. Online listing needs a refresh since the main pics are outdated (e.g., front patio has more privacy but the views are obstructed due to mature plantings). I’d prefer more view by trimming back growth. Second bedroom had an old / damaged mattress that should’ve been replaced long before our stay — the manager thanked us for pointing it out and planned to address with owners. Full time rental shouldn’t have this issue.

This cottage is a true gem. So comfortable and the views are incredible. We walked the beach, hiked and loved watching the ferries come and go out of Wellington. Will definitely return. Rob and Lori

3rd time at Guthrey Cottage
Excellent, as previously - a happy place for the whole family. Sitting on the seawall staring out to sea and watching the beach is a good way to spend much of the day! Managers super-helpful in helping reunite us with a couple of things left behind too. Recommended.

This beautifully outfitted, recently remodeled property was the perfect getaway. It was lovely waking up to look out the front window at the water every morning and having everything we needed to be able to cook in the well-stocked kitchen. Had a wonderful stay and would definitely go back!

Winter Relaxation
A beautiful location and a very relaxing stay. Would definitely recommend for a break away! We actually live in Wellington but as we are currently living on our boat while we build our a new home, we were looking for some land time and some bath time to relax in the winter months. Was perfect for us!

We were visiting family in Eastbourne but just needed a place to stay that was independent and Guthrie Cottage was perfect. Unfortunately too cold to use the outdoor bath, which was a shame. It was one of the coldest weeks in Wellington this year but our welcome home was warm.
