Would stay again

The property was fantastically clean. The house is in decent condition and is as shown in the photos. As long as you are not expecting a modern house you will be very happy here. Was a short 5 to 8 minute walk into town and Close to other nice areas to walk. Communication from the host was excellent.

Tree house in Raglan

We enjoyed our stay in Raglan. The house was as pictured and described. The stars at night were amazing. We did drive into town, a little too far for us to walk, and enjoyed several of the restaurants and shops. We also took surf lessons while there.

It was a bit further out of town than we were expecting. The driveway is very steep & narrow.The accommodation was clean & tidy with heaps of space (we even did yoga in the lounge).A great girls weekend away.

Cozy getaway spot in the trees

We had a wonderful weekend away staying in the cottage. Jane was excellent with her communication and even leaving a few goodies in the way of a box of chocolates and a bottle of milk. Some previous reviews had mentioned the place not getting any sun but we found it the opposite. It was well lit in most parts of the house, warmed up during the day (even in wintertime now) and we loved being surrounded by the native trees. We didn’t have any complaints, other than one or two of the photos were hard to judge like the bathrooms, but that didn’t worry us. The drive is steep and narrow but theres enough space up top to turn around etc. The upstairs loft / master bedroom was a really lovely space and the fire got most of the house heated up nice & toasty.We would absolutely stay here again

Gorgeous cosy tree house with sea views

We had a great stay, the house was small but well equipped. Perfect for a family of four plus Granny. The kids loved the board games. Not much space for them to run around but a great house for hide and seek! Clean and tidy and only a 5 minute walk from town or 10 to the wharf.

Was truly amazing. Perfect location, amazing spacious place, kind and generous host! We'll be back

Was enjoyable to plan the trip as Jane was fast in responding to online messages and always willing to help. Especially appreciated her flexibility in terms of letting us to check-in earlier than it was stated. The space is super spacious and comfortable for the groups from 4-7 people while leaving enough freedom so everyone can enjoy it! The view from the house is magical and there is just the right amount of sun! The garage space makes it easy for 2 cars to park, so you don't need to stress about it. We also liked the little touches like - ice cream in the freezer and pop corn as the complimentary gift. Thank you for making our stay in Raglan and hens party so stress-free and wonderful. Girls and I are planning our next trip together already and I can't wait for that! thank you again, Jane!
