What a lovely place to stay! Gorgeous cottage which is completely private, surrounded by farmland, trees and flowering shrubs. We stayed in mid-winter but it was cosy and warm inside, with a wood burner and electric (oil column) heaters. The hosts are just lovely. The cottage was filled with fresh flowers and the wood-burner was lit to warm the house for our arrival, there were welcoming treats and fresh fruit, along with a great selection of teas, a decent coffee machine, and fresh eggs. The cottage itself was spotless and a lovely historical experience. The beds were comfortable, the pillows plump and the linen soft. There really are only good things to say about this place. We regret not staying longer! In terms of location, it's only an 8 minute drive into New Plymouth CBD and 5 mins to Inglewood. Also only 10 mins to the Holden Museum, which is worth a visit.
