Summary: The cottage is full of little surprises. Dress ups, drawers of items you'd have had in the 50s, lots to explore. Cosy, warm and friendly.

Andrea M. Apr 16, 2025 10:49:47 AM
Summary: Loved Teapot Cottage! Very quirky, great hosts, awesome fire bath that Dan lit for us, wonderful dog Mellow. Comfy beds.Lovely walk up to the Amethyst hot springs on the Wanganui river bank, also loved the HariHari coastal walkway- an easy track, the drive in goes past interesting whitebaiters’ huts. Kath even helped source some whitebait for us Highly recommend!

Summary: Lovely place! Perfect on a rainy day!

Summary: The bathroom access was from outside the house and due to mosquitoes and other insects, it was tough to use the bathroom. It would have been easier if the bathroom access was from inside the house. Even though we closed all windows after getting in the house, the mosquitoes made their way in every time someone went to use the bathroom.

Summary: It’s an acquired taste, bed is comfortable and it’s as clean as it can be, ( as there’s so much stuff, dolls, Knick- knacks) so if your looking for mod cons and clean lines, this is not for you, it has an outside bathroom, but totally undercover from the front door, so you won’t get wet if it rains and sadly it did a lot during our stay, so we didn’t get to enjoy the area as much as we’d like. Kath and Dan were very welcoming
Denzel C. Dec 16, 2024 04:46:04 AM
Summary: Beautiful, cosy cottage. Immaculately kept and period furnishings were on point. Just enough to make the stay comfortable, while being a wonderfully relaxing escape! Highly recommended.
Rebecca P. Dec 3, 2024 05:23:31 PM
Summary: Conveniently located to many natural attractions, this home is an attraction in itself. Comfortable, clean, and full of antiques from days gone by. I felt right at home! Kath was helpful with advice about the area. A keeper, for sure.

Summary: Absolutely perfect.
