We really enjoyed our stay at the Peebles Cottage. The cottage provided everything we needed. Fresh bread, local milk, peaches from the trees. The Bach was clean and tidy and Jane and her husband were so welcoming.Jane recommended beaches to visit that were less crowded and hikes that we would never have known about.We also got to hear Kiwis calling to each other most nights.Would highly recommended Peebles as a perfect place to stay.Thank you guys for making us feel so welcome and sharing your local knowledge.

Couldn’t recommend Jane and Doug’s beautiful cottage enough, they’ve gone above and beyond and really thought of everything. Bed is super comfy, me and my partner had a week stay and it was so homely and comfortable. Outdoor shower was perfect for after our daily beach swims. Such a great location, so many awesome beaches and activities in the local area. The surrounding nature is so peaceful & such a nice refresh for us Aucklanders, we will definitely be coming back. Jane and Doug are such lovely people, thanks for letting us stay in this beautiful cottage

Beautiful stay with the most welcoming guests we’ve ever experienced. We stayed before Christmas, and Jane and Doug had a sweet present wrapped under the tree for us. They also had great recommendations of local beaches and walks, and we just generally enjoyed hearing about the land and all of the native bird life. Would highly recommend staying here

A slice of paradise.

From the moment we arrived we instantly felt relaxed.Jane is such a great host, the bach was spotlessly clean, we found little treats and extras in the kitchen, lovely fresh fruit bowl and home made biscuits. It was so welcoming. Jane gave us lots of information about local trips. and places to see. We loved all the native birds around the property with a beautiful dawn chorus of bellbirds. We would recommend this place to anyone who loves the quiet and peace of staying in the country. The local beaches were only minutes away. Thank you Doug for the delicious freh snapper that you provided for us. Many thanks to you both.
