Waihakeke-a rural getaway so close to town
Waihakeke Cottage, located on a small farm, is for those looking for stand alone modern accommodation away from town.
During these times of potential Covid-19 risk we will be doing extra cleaning., and we'll be asking anyone who is unwell to think about coming to stay at a later date.
Our cottage was built in late 2015, and while adjacent to the main house, is private with fantastic rural views over farmland and towards the Tararua Range and Eastern Hills. Clean, and modern with double glazing for warmth in Winter; cool in Summer.
The swimming pool is available for our guests(seasonal). We've got lambs and calves in Spring, sometimes pigs, ducks and chickens. And always our 2 friendly labradors.
A short 5 minute drive to fabulous shops and cafes in Greytown and Carterton, and 20 minutes to Martinborough. Go walking in the Tararuas, sample wines in Gladstone or Martinborough, bike on the rail trail in Greytown or on the country roads. Plenty to do or just relax taking in the views.
We offer complimentary tea/coffee(Nespresso machine), some fresh home baking and eggs from our chickens.
Special conditions:
Ask about buying a dozen eggs from our chickens to take home-$5 a dozen subject to the chickens laying!!
No smoking inside
Extras: Cleaning (included); Linen (included);
