Family-friendly vacation rentals in Newtown

Well appointed and clean room with ensuite bathroom, kitchenette, couch and desk. A very comfortable stay, with a private entrance and garden area. The hosts David and Kerry are amazing, they made me feel right at home from the small treats and welcome goodies they left in the room, to showing me the local sites, public transport routes, walking trails and restaurants.

Beautiful house with amazing views. Clean and tidy. Well organized with all facilities. Enjoyed staying here. Simon is very friendly host and communication is easy. Highly recommend this place.

An absolutely gorgeous house in an idyllic spot, overlooking the Wellington Harbour. Guthrie Cottage had everything we needed, and nothing we didn't. The beds were comfortable, the central heating was amazing, and the water pressure good. The ideal location to get away from any hustle and bustle, and to be lulled to sleep by the sea on your doorstep. We had a very peaceful, relaxing stay at Guthrie Cottage - will be back!

Thank you Tania. Absolutely perfect for my daughter and I. We are country lovers so this couldn’t have been better for us. Loved looking at the horses out the window / door. Loved the sounds of the birds in the evening and the morning. I got a little confused finding the cottage at first as I went up the left driveway to the main house, not the right driveway. But was able to get hold of Tania promptly and she was able to redirect me. This is a beautiful rustic type cottage with the space really well thought out. I didn’t mind the kitchenette in the bathroom. Obviously as long as you keep everything sanitary as you use it it’s not an issue. Kind of the same situation if you were to stay in a caravan everything is close together amenities wise. Was nice and warm and super cosy. Would absolutely stay here again. Thanks so much for your kind, friendly and inviting hospitality.

Alicia was kind and responsive all the time. My family enjoyed staying at the place with lots of outdoor activities and relaxing environment at home. We felt like at home. Can’t ask more. Thank you.

What an amazing place, with a view even more stunning than it appears in the photo! Everyday I felt compelled to take a photo of the constantly changing scene laid out in a 180 degree panorama. Benoit was a very thoughtful and responsive host, and it was everything my family (two adults, two kids) needed for our visit to Wellington. It is a very comfortable and beautiful house, and a handy location including shops a few minutes drive away and a great cafe a few minutes walk down the path. Although looks a bit out of town on the map, it is a short and easy drive into the city. Oscar the cat was soon part of the family and our son was very sad to say goodbye!

Was great to have the space for a family get together. Was warm in bedrooms but needed the fire in the kitchen.

We had a wonderful stay. Natalie was a very good host. As soon as we arrived Cha Cha took us down to the river for a play. Samba the cat was very confident and fun too. The place is really nice and the tree house is super cosy and warm. In a safe and peaceful location. Would stay again.

Fantastic house for our young family, we stayed in August and it was nice and warm. Location is great, as well as the view. Good value for money. Really loved the underfloor heating in the bathroom and having the heat pump on when we arrived was a nice touch. Would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is super clean, modern, tidy and has new appliances and so on. It felt quiet and private and has a big back yard and off street parking. Our host were communicative and responsive, and check in was super easy.

Haiying's tree top apartment is absolutely delightful - with stunning views of the bay and Wellington. We loved our short stay - just wished we had longer to enjoy it!

We were very comfortable and warm. The house is well set-up with provisions, utensils, appliances, etc. I thought there might be a bit of noise at night, from the nearby road, but it was quiet and we slept well. Lovely hosts who made sure we had everything we needed.

We loved our stay here. The flat is very spacious and had a great kitchen with everything you could need. It was really clean and homely. Super location in the city too. Would definitely come back!

Fantastic location, house was nice and warm, great coffee shop right next door, well appointed, helpful hosts. Thank you so much

A really GREAT stay for us in delightful Eastbourne even with NZ’s chilly winter. Quiet, cosy & VERY comfortable & all that you need. Rebecca Ann .. GREAT HOST .. always at hand. Recommend. Tee,N & Mash 🐾

Incredible place to relax and enjoy Wellington as a family - warm, welcoming with everything you need to have a wonderful holiday. Mandy is a terrific host.

Perfect apartment to stay at in Wellington. Everything was as per the booking description etc.

Caroline and Markus were such beautiful hosts. responsive when needed help and adaptable when I was in pickle. I was hosting friends from over seas and this place made for a really easy and meaningful time. especially having the native wildlife right outside the window. Will definitely come here again if I ever need. much thanks!

Great place, handy to the University and the cable car to get down to the city. Perfect for what we needed.

Great apartment tucked away in the thick of it all — easy walking distance from Te Papa museum and the waterfront, easy Uber rides to Wētā Workshop and the airport, easy access to loads of restaurants and bars on Cuba Street. We had less than 48 hours in Wellington but this stylish place helped us make the most of it.

Couldn’t be happier with our stay. We were greeted on arrival, with quick and timely responses as we made our way to the location. Immediately we felt right at home. A booklet was provided with information for all the amenities, alongside recommendations. The apartment was very warm and inviting, and the beds were really comfortable- we all slept incredibly well! Check in and check out we’re really easy and flexible, and it was nice to have a space for us all to chill together! Thank you 😊

A lovely spot. Clean and comfortable, with a nice spacious bedroom. Peaceful setting looking out into the private garden. Lisa was very helpful and a great host. Looking forward to staying again.

Nice, clean and quiet place with all the features one needs. Bus stop to the central city is a few steps away. Very quiet at night. Highly recommend!

Well appointed and located apartment. Check in was easy with good instructions.
