Makorori townhouses

We loved everything about the house. The well-stocked kitchen was a joy; beds very comfortable; lots of lovely areas to be inside and out. Very strongly recommend as a home away from home.

Stayed for 5 days - great location, perfect for our needs . Great host , good communication

Great place to stay and handy to shops beach etc.

Great house to stay in for a range of ages!

Lovely Art Deco Historic home. Quirky art work. Great location. A beautiful, spacious house with everything you need, fabulous views of the river. Comfortable beds. Suited our group of 6. Easy communication with host. Will stay at again.

Our family were lucky enough to be able to return to this fantastic property for a second holiday. And once again, Craig and his family ensured we were able to turn up and just chill out. This property is so beautiful, during winter the fire keeps the whole house toasty warm, and the wood and everything you need to keep it going is right there for you (no having to trudge out to some shed in the cold to get more wood). The house is very well appointed with everything you might need. Our wider family from Gisborne love it when we stay out here too as there is so much room for everyone to come visit us. And waking up each morning to the view of the Matokitoki Valley cloaked in early morning fog below you with the sun coming up over the hills is absolutely stunning! I can’t recommend this property highly enough, you won’t be disappointed! Thanks Craig for letting us stay again, definitely the first place we check availability for when heading to Gisborne.

Wonderful location and beautiful house. Loved feeding the chickens and collecting eggs. Picking some oranges and juicing them. Heaps of space for kids to ride bikes in the garden. Beautiful historic house. We loved our stay. Thank you 😊

Ellen's cottage is perfectly poised close to the beach with a deck to watch walkers and surfers enjoy this magnificent part of NZ. Felt very lucky to stay there. Loved the way the house was tucked into the hill, protected and cosy. Thanks so much. Mary and Geoff
