About this property
Spacious historic cottage
Historic (1850's) cottage on Tuhitarata Estate.
Nestled among 400 year old Kahikatea, this lovingly restored cottage is the perfect place to bring families, groups of friends or for just a chill out . The cottage is tastefully decorated with a large workable kitchen, complete with separate dining area and spacious lounge. Wood fire to keep you toasty and warm in the winter.
An ideal base if you're wanting to explore the coast or venture into Martinborough. Tuhitarata's night sky is as good as you get in Wairarapa or for that matter, New Zealand!
