We had an amazing stay and Gillian’s cottage and would recommend it to anyone visiting Auckland. It’s on a beautiful acreage with sheep and horses- it’s a great place to get away from the city. The bed and pillows are extremely comfortable and there are extra blankets in case it gets cold. Towels and toiletries are provided and the kitchen is well stocked. The place was immaculate which were very much appreciated. Gillian and her husband are very kind and welcoming and great hosts!
