Aunty Bill's Orchard Cottage

CathieRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Nicola and Andrew kindly accepted our very last minute request. Their cottage is delightful in every way. Cosy, tastefully furnished and equipped with everything we needed including a coffee grinder. (A first on our travels) It was the perfect place to base ourselves as we explored the region. The breakfast goodies in the fridge plus fresh produce and eggs were gratefully received by us and reflect the fine hospitality on offer here.

Bay Cottage - Rototai

Glenda & RogerRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Bay Cottage is a lovely place to stay. Spacious with everything one needs for a few days. Christine was a friendly host who came over to meet us at the cottage which is removed from the house. This makes for a quiet and secluded stay where you can appreciate the bird song. While the location is rural ( in a citrus orchard) it was a short drive to Takaka and we were able to dine well there. An enjoyable stay.

This is such a beautiful place and makes a great home base!! It’s only a few minutes outside Takaka, so it’s remote and peaceful but easy to get to town for supplies. The all wood cabin feel was so homey and it was nice to have a yard to walk barefoot in. Loved this stay!!
