Wellington Eastbourne Beachfront Cottage Wi-Fi

HarrietRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

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!

Time to unwind & reset.

AngusRating, 5 stars5 months ago

We had a wonderful Christmas holiday at Louise’s place. Fish were caught down at the coast, we went for forest walks and enjoyed the wonderful views while relaxing. When the weather was sunny we ate out on the deck and enjoyed the sunny location while playing petanque. When the weather was not so good we played pool, darts and cards, and relaxed inside. The spacious layout suited our grown-up family perfectly - a great mix of communal and private spaces. Sitting in the bath looking out on view was a highlight. The kitchen was also well equipped and we cooked Christmas dinner on the deck barbecue. The driveway is steep but our Mazda 3 handled it fine. Overall, the location feels secluded, but close enough to Wellington for visits.

Relaxing coastal get-away at Cape Palliser

LouiseRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We had such a great long weekend here. The house is in a quiet area with a nice view of the sea. It is a short drive to the lighthouse and pinacles in either direction. It is dark at night and we got great views of the stars (and even the aurora on the last night!!). The place is well laid out, very clean and more than enough space for 6 adults. The living area is larger than it looks in the photos. The bbq is around the side of the house so not very communal but it was good and clean. Kitchen was well equipped and easy to find and operate everything. We didnt use it but there is an outdoor shower for coming in from the beach and loads of beach towels for use. Great communication from Jenna with easy instructions to find the house- and the early check in is such a good bonus.

We enjoyed a peaceful stay! It was very clean which was important to us because of pet allergies. It was a nice place to stay for going to Cape Palliser, as there is very little accommodation out there. Highly recommend checking out the seals!
