Perfect Airbnb accommodation in a quiet residential area and completely separate from the main house. Kathryn travels a lot herself and the chalet is full of little touches that show she’s really considered what makes for a comfortable stay. There is a separate double bedroom with a small wardrobe and TWO luggage stands for suitcases, a lovely large bathroom with toiletries provided and a good-sized living/dining area with a table and chairs, two comfortable settees and a well-appointed kitchen. There is a second bedroom with a single bed.
Tea and ground coffee (oh, the luxury after drinking cheap motel instant!) are provided along with some jams and peanut butter, salt and pepper.
A large cupboard off the living area houses portable heaters which were more than adequate to make the living space nice and toasty within a few minutes on a cool autumn evening.
We didn’t use the terrace off the living area because it rained - constantly - while we were there but it would be lovely to open up the glass doors there and relax.
Kathryn was watching out for us when we arrived which was another thoughtful touch and made us feel really welcome.
We loved it - it was all even better than we expected and only about 15 mins drive from the centre of Wellington and the ferry.
