Gill is a wonderfully welcoming host who sets you at ease and makes you feel at home instantly. Her cottage is extremely charming indeed; beautifully furnished and decorated with a lush, manicured garden oasis. The room was very calming, clean and well appointed, with a very comfortable bed and beautiful linen. I slept very well! I highly recommend Gill's cottage in beautiful Ponsonby, and I would stay again in a heartbeat.
