Kosbys Cottage, nestled in the heart of Tongariro for all the best adventures!

Kosbys Cottage, Tongariro provides excellent value for money, offering ample space for families (children over 2 years old) or small groups of friends. A snug retreat during winter, thanks to a very efficient wood-burner (there is no heat pump). The spacious couch is perfect for unwinding, while the well-equipped kitchen, resembling that of a caterer’s, includes an espresso machine and opens out onto a charming patio area with a barbecue, herb garden, and stunning vistas.
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. The bathroom offers a jetted tub and hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.

Perfect Getaway Home - Our Second Stay Was Just as Amazing!

This was our second stay at Kosby's Cottage, and just like the fist time, it was nothing short of amazing! The home was impeccably clean and well-appointed, with every amenity we could possibly need. The living space was spacious and comfortably furnished, making it a perfect spot to relax after a day of exploring. The kitchen was fully equipped, allowing us to cook meals with ease. We especially loved the cozy bedrooms, which offered a restful retreat with plush bedding and serene decor. The location was ideal, offering tranquility and privacy while still being conveniently close to local attractions and amenities. The hosts were incredibly attentive and responsive, providing us with excellent communication and ensuring our stay was as enjoyable as possible. Their attention to detail and genuine hospitality truly made our vacation special. It was the perfect getaway for relaxation, adventure, and quality time with loved ones. We can't wait to return and create more wonderful memories here. Highly recommended!
