Very accommodating for children with toys and books (& dress ups!). Our 4& 6 year old boys were very happy in their room.The house was really spacious. The kitchen was huge with everything we needed. The layout of the house was excellent, particularly the laundry right by the back door, and having 2 showers and 2 toilets. Great to have a fold out bed in the office as an extra bed.

Gorgeous Cottage
We were absolutely blown away by this gorgeous cottage. It had everything we needed for our week long stay, and we were very comfortable. The kids room and toys were very welcomed by my 3 year old daughter who quickly made herself at home. The location was fantastic, close to the local shops, and a great base to explore the surrounding areas. I highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the Richmond area. Thank you!
Our stay at the Classic Kiwi Villa was perfect…the home away from home we needed during our stay in Richmond. Throws, cushions, outdoor seating and contemporary decor to name a few of the extra home comforts. Quiet and central…just a short walk to the shopping centre for a fresh sourdough loaf in the morning. Cannot speak highly enough of our stay…thank you!!
