My husband and I really enjoyed staying in Anne's cottage - the space was absolutely immaculate! It is beautifully designed, bright and airy - the perfect little oasis. It feels very private but we felt we had access to Anne's (great) advice whenever we needed it. Everything we needed was available in the cottage for us - there were even fresh made croissants for us to pop into the oven on our first morning, such a treat! The location is perfect - less than 10 minute walk to Ponsonby bars, restaurant, and shops. We highly recommend you make this your home base in Auckland!
