The Cottage was a beautiful guest house on stunning grounds! We traveled to NZ with our 2 year old daughter and really appreciated the extra space and open yard where she could play. Isis brought over some toys/books for us, which was a godsend after a week of the same 2 books. the location was centrally located, allowing us to visit Hobbiton, Rotorua and Mt Maunganui all in under an hour. We will definitely be staying here again in the future!
