The size of the room exceeded my expectations. Really lovely property, nice outlook, covered verandah for socialising, really nice owner. Wish there was a bit more cooking facilities, ie electric hob, but the owners were great about it and offered a microwave and there is a BBQ you can use. Highly recommend!

The studio has everything you need for a relaxing and comfortable stay. Hine, the host, got in contact to give advice and guidance on the local area and other bits which was very useful. I would recommend if you want to enjoy a wonderful stay in Raglan. Close to everything and just a short drive to the beach!

Lovely property, one appointed, beautifully clean. Very tricky to enter the property using the key – could do with some attention. Would have loved a drop of milk and a biscuit upon arrival. But otherwise very satisfactory stay. Thank you
