Cushla's magnificent studio is only matched by Cushla herself. Both are extraordinarily wonderful. We arrived while Cushla was out but instructions for entry was pre-arranged. Cushla arrived later and we all had a great introduction to each other. Cushla is a vibrant humanist and, to us, typifies why Wellington is such an amazing city to spend time in; vibrant, creative, connected, caring & quite simply - gorgeous.
The studio is truly lovely. Completely separated from the house, it is an architectural addition. Very high stud with the greatest speakers in the ceiling. All the electronics you need for relaxation are there so you just need to recline on the extremely comfortable bed & enjoy. The seating is retro & comfortable & gives you glimpses of the harbour. The kitchenette has all you need for your stay. I could find nothing wanting. Cushla's attention to detail is superb. Most products are eco friendly &/or organic right down to the edible bits she so graciously supplied. Delicious berry smoothies, along with the newspaper graced our doorstop on day 2. What a way to start the day!
There is a terrific den/study area up the small stairs which has some wonderful art pieces in it. In fact, local art is everywhere & just makes this accommodation that much more special. To the left of the study is the bathroom. Just immaculate, classy & a pleasure to spend time in. The mosaics on the shower recess are a fabulous blue glass design.
Everything about this place makes you feel like you are special & deserving. The location is so convenient to the city centre. You have to walk up a bit of a hill, so if you are infirm or not fit, just grab a cab up from wherever. It's no reason to forgo staying here.
Cushla has a 4 legged friend that may make herself known under Cushla's supervision. Try to make her acquaintance. Like Cushla, her accommodation and Wellington in general, they are all class acts!
We cannot recommend enough Cushla and her studio. We can't imagine a better place or location in which to spend time while in the coolest little capital in the world. We shall return, time and again!!
