This is a sweet cottage perfectly placed under Te Mata Peak and walking distance to several wineries - Te Mata, Telegraph Hill, Church Road, Craggy Range and Black Barn, and a short drive to a fantastic coffee spot called Red Bridge Cafe which is set up in a shipping container - beautifully rural. The cottage has sheep in the paddock and beautiful planting and flat lawns with spots to sit out and just be still and admire the country life. There are lemon and orange trees in the garden, the beds are comfy and it's a great wee spot. It is close to a fairly busy rural road and you can hear the traffic however it's not relentless and you get used to it quickly. There is a cycle path so bring bikes. We would definitely return again to the cottage and make sure we had more time just sitting on the porch and enjoying the vista. Robyn was very punctual in her email replies, sadly we didn't meet her as they were overseas but there were no problems so we just came and went. Easy!
