Had everything we needed. Just across the road from the beginning of the coastal walkway. Really enjoyed the deck area. Perfect for all of us, including our small dog.

Loved this property and enjoyed the little personal touches our host provided. The chocolates, the jigsaw puzzle and the prepared wood burner were all appreciated.

New Plymouth holiday spot
We found the hostess lovely and the cottage pleasant to stay in. Beautiful garden and great that our dog was welcome too.
Comfortable sized cottage feel but we found the couches a bit hard and on quite a busy road. But great to be so close to the seafront.
