My wife and I had 2 x overseas friends visiting, and we stayed at this Russell Cottage for our 3 night visit to Russell and Paihia, This place was perfect with 3 seperate rooms, and great living / outdoor areas downstairs for socialising and relaxing after site seeing. Just a few mins walk to the Russell water front, and ferry to Paihia, this was just what we needed for our quick stay in the area.
