    Loved the beautiful vibe of the cottage. Definitely makes me want to return. Our two little dogs were well catered for with an outside area that was completely fenced in.

    We liked the cottage and the furnishings and decorations that supplemented its historic nature. The eclectic collection of vinyl records and record player were an added bonus.

Craig and Julianne are two hard-working Kiwis who have an appreciation of the Arts and Crafts architecture of the early 20th Century. We realize the importance of enjoying a good holiday and are happy to allow visitors to experience the ambiance of our much cherished cottage by the sea.
Whanganui is a delightful provincial riverside town that has retained much of its' early 20th century character. It would have the best 'Victorian Era' main street in New Zealand. Castlecliff Beach enjoys the status of being a seaside recreational area. There is a lovely cafe called 'The Citadel' located on the recently enhanced main street. It is a great place to hang out. Favourite activities include swimming at the beach, ice-creams from the diary, walking in the coastal reserve and along the beautiful beach. There is a cycle trail that runs alongside the mighty Whanganui River into town. Check out the website 'visitwhanganui.nz' for other things to enjoy in Whanganui.
