A delightful cottage in a great location. Very clear instructions on how to get there and where to find the key, etc. Beautifully presented and whilst you cannot see the sea you can hear it and it is only a short walk away.Thoroughly recommend - would visit again.

A very charming place to stay. We will return. Responsive host. Very clean with everything the traveler requires. Looking for a private quiet retreat, this is it including more books than you could read. Thanks host!

A perfect old-school bach

We loved staying at Tree Cottage. It's a charming 'old-school' bach, just perfect for a cosy weekend away. Lindsey was a great host, with really good communication before and during our stay.

Quiet 2 night stay

This was a cozy place to stay. About 20 minutes outside Dunedin in a quiet neighborhood. We had access to a wonderful beach and within easy driving distance to several places along the coast to view sea lions, albatross, and an ecosystem reserve. We stayed in late Feb - this might be a much busier place in high summer due to easy beach access.

Lovely cosy cottage with a great woodburner. The owner was very friendly and good with communication. Great area with a lovely beach nearby. The owner kindly said we could use the 2 kayaks but unfortunately we didnt get time to use them.

Relaxing stay

We stayed 6 days as we visited family and toured the area. Lindsey’s place was a wonder base, relaxing and beautiful; gardens and quiet home. Simple but all that was needed for a quiet and relaxing visit. Host was wonderful, very communicative and responsive. Morning coffee and evening wine on the porch with flowers, bees and nice view of the hillside. A very relaxing and refreshing venue!
