Sunnynook the gem

I organised this stay as my elderly parents 89 years olds spent time in Raglan as youngsters and it held such fond memories.I have a chocolate lab so required pet friendly accommodation.Sunnynook exceeded expectations. It’s an absolute gem. Well appointed only a stroll from all the eateries and shops. A 5 minute walk to the waters edge. This property had everything you could possibly need. The facilities were clean and very comfortable. The host was incredibly accommodating.We are already planning another stay.I can’t recommend this quintessential kiwi cottage highly enough.Claudine

Beautiful old home with lots of character, and a great view, but the property has seen better days. The day of checking in, I received a message to say the outside rooms needs new piles and therefore the room is on a lean, but okay to stay in. I didn't realise one of the bedrooms was an outside room - my mistake for not noticing this information, or doing the research to see that information didn't transfer from one booking site to this one. We ended up just sharing a room, so we were all inside as I was with two mature woman and a young child. A large basket of washing was left on the deck. When I asked what to do with it, I did get a sincere apology but no instructions on what to do with it. I moved it inside so that it didn't get left in potential rain over the weekend. Upon check in, there were ants on the windowsill which I believe had come from outside. I sprayed them and wiped them up. There was also no soap in the dispenser in the bathroom. We ended up swapping the soap from the kitchen as I couldn't see any others in the cupboards. Great location. Great views. House needs some love but has lots of potential. Just not quite what I was expecting for how much we paid.

Quirky and gorgeous!

We loved our stay here! I can see the place may not be the best in winter (it is an old house), but it was a delight to stay here in summer. The living room was big and comfortable, with amazing views across the estuary and to the hills. The beds were comfy and cosy, and the bathroom (with washer and dryer) was grand.The kitchen had lots of plates and bowls and everything you'd need to call this home for a holiday.The deck is glorious! Sitting at the table drinking beer in the sun, with the parasol up for shade, was the most perfect first evening. The house is up the hill enough to get great views but still close to the shops and town.Now to the quirks! The lights took some getting used to as the kitchen lights are on strings from the bulbs – so it's a bit tricky in the dark. The light in the bunk room is also on a string...which we had to extend for my short mother. Which was pretty funny, I admit! A couple of floors are a bit wonky and some windows are a little stiff to open – if you're seeking sleek and shiny perfection, this place ain't for you. If you want a house that feels homely, welcoming and comfortable, that looks charming (and great in photos) and that's a pleasure to return to at the end of the day, this is a winner.

Fabulous Spot

Sunny nook is a fabulous place to stay. The accommodation is perfectly bach-like, so comfortable with tasteful furnishings and lovely linen. The views over Raglan Harbour are beautiful and its location next to town makes for easy access to all amenities. I felt instantly relaxed the moment i arrived and it easily accommodated our family with teenagers. I look forward to going back.

Location was good for walking although noisy next to the main road into raglan. Unfortunately found 3 cockroaches through the house . So definitely needs attending too. The house definitely needs a lot of work and although it was tidy, some furniture needs replacing as it’s seen better days. It was a bit cold during the night (Oct) so wouldn’t stay in winter, and would suggest putting on the duvets in the cupboards and using the heaters. Lovely views and the sun streams in, in the afternoon which is nice. Also there was no information about the tv and how to use (remotes etc). There was no basic tv and only YouTube which is a parents worst nightmare. This defiantly needs to be addressed.

Raglan Cutie

This was a very cute old world bach/cottage with the best views over Raglan. It was very quaint and well catered for. Extremely thankful for all the heating provided which kept the cottage warm and toasty. The Cottage is getting on in years but was a great stay. Would recommend it as a place to stay. My only negative was that the second bedroom was a bit tight with double bed as well as bunk beds.

Great location but a little too cold for winter!

We enjoyed our stay in Raglan, the cottage is well-located and has a lovely view. It is, however, very old and not well set-up for colder months i.e. there are no electric blankets; there was only one functioning heater; the windows are very cold and drafty; the shutters in the bathroom don't close. It also wouldn't be good for anyone with pet allergies as it is very obviously a pet friendly cottage.

The four of us loved our weekend stay at Sunnynook Cottage. Bedding configuration suited us, and it was such a treat to have all the linen not only supplied, but beds made up and bathroom stocked with quality towels. Perfect location so close to town, with beautiful outlook. Would thoroughly recommend, and definitely rebook!
