About this property

Garden cottage Te Horo

Our guest house is set amongst beautiful cottage style gardens and on a 4 acre lifestyle block. We have fenced chickens and goats that are friendly and love visitors. Our sunny welcoming garden cottage house awaits you. It’s warm and toasty through winter with a heat pump and is suitable for singles, couples or families up to a maximum of 3 people. Close to the shops (5 min drive) and only only a short drive to spectacular walks in the Tararua Ranges. Monochrome modern decor.
There is a kitchenette with a small bar fridge, kettle and microwave, so cooking facilities are extremely limited. If you like to dine out, there are plenty of fabulous restaurants and eateries nearby like the bus stop cafe, river stone, tuk tuk, long beach, and the front room.
Enjoy the stars and soothe those achey muscles in our custom built rustic outdoor hot water bath (available for an extra $25). This must be prebooked as the water is heated from the adjacent wood burner and it takes a little while to set up. Guests can sit outside and have a wonder through our mostly manacured gardens. Our goats love attention but please watch out for the electric fencing.

As an experience, you can add on an encaustic art workshop. I have my own art studio on site and am more than happy to do this. Please visit my website for more details.

We have a little play-fort with monkey bars for the kids but they must be supervised at all times.
Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a kitchenette, a refrigerator, and a microwave.
