This cottage was just lovely. So close to the sea (it definitely lulled us to sleep), really cutely decorated with lots of kiwiana touches, and a bright and airy space. Despite being the middle of winter, with the heaters on, we were nice and toasty, and the electric blankets and hot water bottles were a great addition.
The kids enjoyed roasting marshmallows on a beach fire that we made just down in front of the property, and seeing the rabbits on the lawn in the morning was a bonus ;)
Hokitika town centre was really close, as was the glow worm dell- which is worth a visit.
Would love to come back!
