Gum Tree Cottage is nestled in lush greenery on a steep hill overlooking Wellington Harbour. You can hang out on the deck all day and watch the clouds go by, see the ferries making their way across to Wellington, and enjoy the tranquility. It's easy to drive into Wellington - about 20 minutes - or go a few minutes down the road to Days Bay and get on a ferry (they're electric!). We also went on an amazing bushwalk in the nearby Catchpool Valley. The cottage is really comfortable, and Haiying is a great host, offering suggestions for activities and advice on things like where to get groceries. We really loved our stay very much!
