Booked a room there but did not arrive there till after 12pm, approaching the intercom asking about our booking only to be turned away. Disappointing knowing that we had travelled 11hrs only to do another 11hrs next day to be denied a room for a rest up. Not returning there ever again!

Room not booked as per arrangement

arrived with printed itinerary, only to find no room booked. Had come down to Family wedding , with relatives staying in other cottages only to be put in budget accommodation away from family and friends for the first night and told there may be nothing for the second night, apart from beds being set up in the conference area. Had to use communal bathroom facilities .Owners to full credit, admitted that they had made an error with the booking and they did their level best to rectify the problem. They were able to offer the same as above for the second night. Certainly took the gloss off the weekend.

Lovely Individual Cottages

This is now our third stay at Cottage Park and we will be back. The individual cottages are roomy and comfortable with a separate bedroom and very quiet. They are a little dated but very clean and are serviced every day. Nice easy walk to all the factory shops and beyond. Excellent

Units great - need working wifi (apparently coming

Unit very spacious, clean and tidy. My only gripe is the wifi didn't work - however the owners are apparently getting a new system. You may want to check this beforehand if having wifi is important. The units had air conditioning - which was much needed. However the conference facilities didn't - and it was also much needed. Again, if you are looking for conference facilities during summer you should check for air conditioning. It was nice the units were surrounded by trees. The owners/staff were very friendly and helpful. Overall, I highly recommend Cottage Park.

Nice setting and detached units

The units separated from each other was a pleasant experience as we didn't hear the neighbours toilet flushing or voices, as is a common experience in motels. Double glazing also ensured that no noise was heard from the adjacent main road.

UNSATISFIED. FEEL RIPPED OFF

I booked online from Australia . On arrival in New Zealand I had to withdraw from the accommodation at the Cottage park in what appeared to be a small shipping container . Cold and unventilated. My sons asthmatic and after 5 minutes we had to get out of there and seek out other accomadation at our expense . Very helpful staff with very bad facilities . I'm not stuck up in fact I know how to rough it but these cabins are not HOLIDAY ACCOMODATION . There better suited to a Free room for a homeless person or as a dog kennel. DO NOT BOOK AT THIS PLACE .
