Haumoana Herb Cottage

Lovely quiet country getaway near winies

The property is in a lovely rural setting, Small observation, would dismiss one set of outdoor furniture Inside would dismiss cane chairs & replace with bench/seat for keeping bags contained Very nice though 👌

What a wonderful stay at Herb Cottage! It is indeed surrounded by herbs! This cottage is on a working farm with multiple orchards and an extensive gardens. Our hostess had some eggs, fresh herbs, lemons and milk waiting for us. The space is small, but also spacious since the double doors open to a lovely deck with plenty of outdoor seating. We enjoyed breakfast out there every morning! There is no TV, and it wasn’t missed! The bed was comfortable and the shower great. We left the windows open at night and liked the cool night air and waking to birds singing. It’s not typical to have bug screens on windows, but we did have a couple big insects come in and screening would help with that (my husband quickly caught and disposed of them). We had access to do our laundry and a warm greeting during the day from the owner’s pup ~ We loved that; so friendly, and then she would wander off. Just checking on us! There are also 2 bicycles for use. We just didn’t have time for those between other visits in the outlying area. This a definite return place if we come back to this area of NZ from the states. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable stay!! *Make sure to note that there is a cleaning fee that is included in final amount.

This charming rustic, little cottage is a delightful change from hotels. You’re in the fields; sheep, horses and a lemon grove are outside your window. The kind host left us wonderful lemons and eggs. No screens on windows though so bugs do get in.

Wonderful little cottage with everything you need - private & romantic!

Great place for peace and quiet in a rural setting yet not too far from town

Beautiful cottage in a wonderful setting, a really relaxing spot either after work or for a holiday retreat, i totally recommend Herb cottage.

This wee cottage was quaint, very quiet and peaceful with everything we needed. A great place for an escape. Wish we could have stayed longer. Will recommend it to others. Thank you Brigid.

The bed and shower was amazing and the area was really peaceful with only bird sounds. The wifi was intermittent and there was no TV but it did not detract too much from the experience.
