It is a beautiful old cottage in a fantastic location right in the village. The kitchen is well equipped. The 4 Square supermarket is 1 minute walk away. It would be perfect for 2 couples. Great having parking for the Saturday market.
That both bedrooms had King beds and there was no option for the 4 of us (not couples) to sleep separately even though the photos showed single beds in one of the rooms and the info about the cottage said twin or king beds.
It was a clean and nicely furnished cottage with plenty of space, Nice garden to sit in. Good shower. Comfy bed. Handy for the Saturday market and nice shops down by the river. Good supermarket opposite with fresh food and lovely Goose Cafe along the road found on last day.
Situated on a main road. On first evening a car parked and had music blasting away for over an hour and half. Not the fault of cottage owner.
Property was very stylishly furnished.
One toilet roll seemed unusual for a 3 night stay. Tissues would have been appreciated along with a clothes airer. Not all things go in a dryer
Great location, lovely little cottage.
Beautiful cottage. With everything you could need. Spotlessly clean. Thank you for our wonderful stay.
Gorgeous cottage, beautifully decorated, fabulously comfortable beds, location, location, location… parking on-site, walk to everything!

Loved the location. Right in the heart of the village.
This is the perfect cottage to explore Matakana. Right in the heart, you are able to walk to the shops, restaurants, cafes, and brewery but it is quiet and peaceful.
You couldn't get a better location, the cottage was clean, fresh, bright and beautiful.

Gorgeous old cottage that has been really beautifully decorated. Spacious inside and out - 4 people not at all cramped. Sunny, bright and light. Fantastic location in centre of Matakana village. Just walk out the door to restaurants, cafes, shops.
Only Venetian blinds in the house, no curtains or Roman blinds that would help block out light in bedrooms. A bright streetlight shines in the front bedroom at night and in the summer a very early wake up with the sun.
The host met us on arrival. Was very welcoming, knowledgable and accommodating.
Conveniently located. Homely feel with great Deco & comfortable beds with top quality linen. Owners have gone to great lengths to style the cottage to create a warm ambience.

Great location with shops bars and restaurants so close.. Wonderful size garden with room to kick a ball around for kids. Not far to our favourite Anchor bay and other beaches.
The toilet handle was broken and you had to hold and turn a cetain way to flush it. Wouldn't have taken owner much to fix it. Only one mirror in one bedroom to get dressed and do your hair etc.
This property is so conveniently located to enjoy all that matakana has to offer within walking distance. The attention to detail made by the hosts made our trip so much more relaxing and stress free knowing everything we needed was provided. The house was so cute and aesthetically pleasing.
There were a couple of very small issues in the bathroom that made things a little tricky but overall it was great.
The cottage is well appointed and in a prime spot with Matakana.
Another toilet would be good. Plus looks like their is enough space for a pool!
The white cottage is absolutely stunning. So quaint and cosy, everything was thought of to make our stay enjoyable. Farmers markets right across the road, we could smell the fresh coffee, woodfire pizzas & bacon buddy’s cooking. Amy was lovely to deal with and everything was easy to access and communication was great.
The house was delightful, cosy, clean and had beautiful furnishings & decor and the beds were so comfortable. The location was perfect, just a few steps away from everything we needed. Oh and the shower head was incredible!
The smell of a non aired house that could have afforded the time of fresh air circling through it which we could appreciate is a time factor and in no way marred out stay as it was so minor.
Excellent location and lovely clean and attractive property.
Great location central to shops, cafes and picture theatre.
Nothing that I can think of.
No tv insructions couldnt get sky. The property is overpriced I have stayed in many five star properties around the world for less The outside offers very little privacy from passing traffic.
Really nice comfortable cottage in a brilliant location, easy access and parking, great communication by the host. Would definitely stay here again.
It was all good
Beautiful location with easy access to shops and restaurants. Spacious rooms and living area. Hosts left special touches like chocolate and ice creams and wine.
I needed to contact hosts regarding how to check in less than an hour before arriving. Damp, musty smell in the rooms and lounge- dissipated when doors opened but returned at night. Freezer was frozen over and we couldn't close the fridge door properly because of this. Need better blockout in the rooms because the street light shines onto the bed even with the blinds drawn. Disherwasher was full when we arrived and I had to empty it.
Stunning little cottage. Lovely fresh flowers on arrival and little extras like using local coffee and bathroom goods. Fabulous location right in the Matakana Village.
Television channels are very limited although we had the option of using the Smart apps.
beautifully renovated cottage in the heart of charming Matakana. wonderful host!
Great location, second visit cause I loved it so much first time. Wonderful to be on the doorstep of the market and restaurants.
