About this property
Sunshine Daydream w Edmund Cottage
Come, relish and disconnect from the hustle and bustle in the city and stay in the delightful Edmund Cottage.
Charmingly presented with cottage décor, the living room opens to a surprise package - a generous fenced and sheltered courtyard with a deck area perfect for summer BBQ's.
Lots of sunshine and light here with a fresh fully equipped kitchen.
The two double bedrooms are served by a spacious bathroom with shower over the tub and hideaway laundry.
Very well located in the up-market St Heliers suburb, the cottage has plenty of space, 2 outdoor seating areas, one ground floor and one upper level facing the stunning Auckland city views.
The cottage is private and is perfect for your couple getaway. Alternatively, our pull out bed and portacot (on request) make it an ideal place to stay for a young family looking for an easy, comfortable and convenient accommodation.
We use a professional linen service, and high quality cotton and linen bedding.
We follow the 5 step enhanced cleaning process which involves cleaning and sanitising right down to the doorknobs. Ecostore environmentally friendly cleaning and laundry products used in the house and paraben / SLS free hand soap/body wash available for guests.
We have everything you need to make your stay easy. This includes Smart TV, boardgames and wine glasses to help you relax, unwind and enjoy your stay. Also some books and toys are available for your little ones (there is nothing like someone else's toys to give you some peaceful moments from your own children).

About the area
Auckland
Located in St. Heliers, a neighbourhood in Auckland, this holiday home is near theme parks and near the beach. Princes Wharf and Westfield Newmarket are worth checking out if shopping is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Mount Eden and Onehunga Bay Reserve. Check out an event or a game at Spark Arena, and consider making time for Auckland Zoo, a top attraction not to be missed. Kayaking and windsurfing offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking/biking trails and cycling nearby.

Auckland has been my home for 20+ years and I love introducing visitors to new places just as much as I enjoy traveling myself to explore new areas!
