Chartré Manor B&B

Hillside location is stunning and the cottage cosy. The variety of breakfast foods amazing!

The hosts went above and beyond to make our stay very comfortable. They even had the fire already to be lite. Fridged stocked with everything you could want for a breakfast and snacks. Even supplied home baking.. yummy.

Breakfast was continental type left out for us and milk etc in the fridge, just what we expected so no problems at all.

Nothing the booking is exactly as advertised

Large and comfortable apartment with fully stocked kitchen. Great views of bay.

Spotless ckean, some lovely extras.

Nothing

Anna Marie was very generous with the breakfast fixings and her cottage was lovely! She was very responsive and accommodating regarding the check-in process.

Limited restaurant options in town which seemed to close early

Een sfeervol ingericht huisje met alles wat je nodig hebt. Fantastisch uitzicht. En vriendelijke hulp van de verhuurster die je verwent met lekkernijen en hulp. Geweldig!

Comfortable bed & chairs. Great water pressure. Everything you would need and more for kitchen supplies. Full breakfast of bacon and eggs supplied with the best homemade dessert and jams.

This is an exceptional B&B! Breakfast is superb, the property is immaculate and the hosts have thought of everything you will need for for a comfortable stay,

Nothing to dislike!

Vue splendide . Très bon accueil

Had all facilities we required. A very quiet location and a comfortable stopover.

Nothing to dislike.

Anna Marie our hostess was fantastic. She had made dessert and South African home bake for us. Plenty of fruit, bread, juice, eggs and bacon for breakfast. The cottage was charming and spacious. Very quiet with beautiful views from the sunny patio.

Everything was perfect!

Liebevoll ausgestattetes Cottage, mit vielen unerwarteten Extras. Das Frühstück war mehr als reichlich. Wir wären sehr gerne länger geblieben.

Friendly host and pup

Ein komplett eingerichtetes kleines Cottage am Hang mit tollem Ausblick über die Bucht (abends) bzw. die angrenzenden Weiden (Frühstücksterrasse). Die Gastgeberin Anna-Marie begrüßte uns herzlich mit einem Willkommenstrunk, versorgte uns mit selbstgemachter Marmelade, schenkte uns Pflaumen und Honig eines befreundeten Imkers.... Auch wenn die Einrichtung nicht mehr die Neueste ist, war es rundum gemütlich und zum Wohlfühlen.

Wahrlich keine Gründe für Beschwerden!

Anna-Marie is an excellent host providing homemade goodies and a warm welcome

Exceptional. Clean and well stocked. I’ve been in many BnB over the years This rate at the top of the list An A++++

Very nice place with lots of space and high quality furniture. We could even use a coffee grinder to brew fresh coffee. The breakfast was also wonderful, with several options.

We come each year to stay at Chartre Manor, making it our first stop visiting New Zealand. The surroundings are tranquil, the cottage is very comfortable; the bed, the living area, the kitchen facilities. There are many things accessible from here, whether tracks in the forests, going to beaches, or restaurants in town. Above all, Anna-Marie and Johan are exceptionally hospitable. It is easy to feel at home here.

The views are fantastic and the cottage is very spacious.

The view was beautiful and we loved the many personal touches that made our stay special.

Hosts were very hospitable and welcoming. Provisions provided were very generous and thoughtful with more than enough for a late meal on arrival and substantial breakfast in the morning.

The breakfast

Everything was so lovely! Thank you very much.

Excellent location

The place was adorable.. Clean, comfortable..home away from home..the owners where very welcoming..and so much amazing food .even freshly baked bread. I could have stayed forever

Everything! Location, amenities, cleanliness, plentiful and diversified breakfast (no way you can eat everything that was provided). The interaction with the our host Anna-Marie was fantastic. She provided valuable information about the Coromandel peninsula. We wish we could’ve stayed longer to take advantage of the place and the surroundings. Thank you very much much!

La disponibilità della signora, la precisione nelle istruzioni sull'uso della casa. I fiori freschi sia in cucina che nel bagno. La cucina era molto funzionale. Il bagno era perfetto, il letto comodo e pulito. Appartamento molto spazioso, in un buon punto panoramico di Thames.

Anna- Marie is a wonderful host. This accommodation was chosen for a work trip. Chartre Manor is an amazing place to relax after a busy day. There are edible treats galore and a complimentary homemade gin and tonic associated with a longer stay. The accommodation sits perched on a hill , so the views are amazing. I enjoyed a walk each evening to a nearby bush walk. The hills invigorated me after a busy day. Anna-Marie ensured that my every need was met - including providing lactose free options. Thoroughly recommended accommodation. Thank you.

Everything was great.

Sehr schöne Lage mit traumhafter Aussicht. Sehr, sehr nette Gastgeber!

Friendly hosts. Lots of food! Plenty of room. Fantastic views.

The warm welcome. Attention to detail. Beautiful location

An wunderschöner, ruhiger Lage, drei Autominuten vom Zentrum; Super-Kolbenkaffee-Machine, Kühlschrank voll für's Frühstück; Holzkorb voll fürs Cheminée (falls benötigt); Wir hätte eine Woche bleiben sollen

Absolut nichts Negatives zu erzählen

Breakfast provisions were great and location was lovely.

Thoughtful array of inclusive provisions for an excellent breakfast /meal Lovely quiet property with great amenities

Provided free range eggs, bacon and other breakfast items even bonus scones and sweets.

Lovely people and fantastic breakfast. Beautiful position

The breakfast and what was supplied was outstanding. We appreciated the free range eggs and they were just one of many generous items. The fire was very efficient. The view was beautiful.

Amazing place with lots of character and charm. They stock you up with so much food and home made goodies :) I would come back just for the home made tiramisu! Lots of space , lovely fireplace, comfortable bed and 30 minutes from the pinnacle hike!

Nothing!

The kind hosts, the tranquil sunset view from above Thames, the privacy.

A beautifully curated cottage with character and plenty to offer in space and comfort. The self-help breakfast was unbeatable with fresh farm eggs, bacon, cereals, yoghurt, and lots more, supplemented with home-made goodies. The well-stocked kitchen had everything we needed, including a coffee machine. A lovely place to relax and unwind in front of the fire after a long day's drive. The friendly hostess made sure we were comfortable and well-cared for during our 2-night stay. Highly recommended and excellent value - will visit again if we get the chance.

Nothing to dislike.

Fully stocked fridge, very clean, superb location, very quiet, friendly hosts.

Nothing

Fridge full of goodies, lovely home baking, bathroom well stocked, lots to read, beautiful outlook. The open fire was a surprising bonus. Hosts very helpful. Parking easy.

We didn’t find the hot plate until after we’d had a breakfast that didn’t need cooking….shouldve looked more carefully! Place seemed a bit dark…maybe lighting could’ve been better.

Wide selection of breakfast ingredients, fresh and tasteful. Excellent! Hosts were very accommodating with great hospitality. Very neat and clean Thank you for great service.

Nothing, everything was excellent

Tout était extraordinaire : le gîte lui-même, spacieux et très confortable, avec excellente literie et draps moelleux, la grande salle de bains très propre et avec nombreux produits pour se laver, la cuisine très bien équipée, le salon avec canapé et fauteuils très agréables, et doté d’un poêle, l’emplacement incroyable avec une vue donnant à la fois sur la mer et sur la campagne. Mais le plus extraordinaire est la qualité de l’accueil par l’hôtesse, très chaleureuse et qui prend un vrai plaisir à recevoir et à partager avec ses hôtes, ce qui se manifeste en particulier dans le petit déjeuner délicieux, mais aussi dans de nombreuses et délicates attentions. Nous sommes restés une nuit supplémentaire et serions bien restés deux semaines ! À recommander les yeux fermés !

Wonderful and friendly hosts. Absolutely divine hospitality and exceptional breakfast, amenities and service. 10/10

Hospitality, cleanness, soo much food, one word...AWESOME, best I ever been too, couldn't fault any thing

The hosts are second-to-none. The lovely touches like home baking, fresh eggs and bacon, the impeccable service from booking to departure. I can’t say enough about my stay! It was wonderful and I will be back. Home comforts were so welcome!

Nothing.

So very comfortable, both bed and lounge, spacious and quiet. Spectacular views, warm and sunny, we were fortunate to have clear winter skies during our stay. The wood burner warmed us in the evenings with a continuous supply of wood. Anna Marie and Johan were beyond generous and welcoming hosts, while affording us our privacy. Bountiful supplies for our breakfasts and more, fresh eggs, homemade cake, and shall I mention the refreshing drink - Gin, for those who are persuadable. I would highly recommend

Nothing to not like. The biggest (non) problem we had was deciding what to have for breakfast.

So friendly and helpful nothing was too much trouble they went above and beyond what we were expecting. It was the best experience ever. A******. We will definitely be going back. Loved every moment of our stay. THANK YOU 😊

Chartre Manor is set in a great location - high on a hillside above Thames with great views over the Firth of Thames. The sunsets are spectacular. Anna-Marie is a great host - couldn't do too much for us and the cottage is very well stocked with foodstuffs for breakfasts/snacks.

TV in cottage has good range of Sky channels - but wasn't "smart", so no Netflix. Also, booking.com says there is a washing machine in the cottage - it isn't, it is in an adjacent garage and, unfortunately, didn't work properly whilst we were there.

Independent, spacious and fully equipped cottage. The quality and range of provisions supplied were exceptional as was the welcome and attention from the hosts. Great location with some views.Easy to find.

No issues at all.

A fabulous place up on the hill above Thames. We only spent one night here but it would be great for longer as there is a comfortable living room, well equipped kitchenette and a dining table inside and one outside. The sunset from the veranda outside was amazing to see. The welcome from Anna-Marie & Bailey the dog was so lovely. Breakfast provisions were very generous and the home made apple pie and cream was gorgeous.

Nothing.

Beautiful location, spacious with a perfect host.

No negatives

We really enjoyed our stay in the cottage, hosted by Anna-Marie and Johan. The cottage has charm, beautiful views and it’s in a very quiet location. The space is private with ample parking for a large car. The cottage is well equipped with everything you need, and Anna-Marie keeps the fridge stocked with all essential items, breakfast and snacks throughout the day. There was fresh eggs, bacon, cheese, jam, bread, croissants, smoked salmon, fruit, yogurt, cereal, all different kinds of beverages, cookies, etc. Anna-Marie also stopped by and delivered fresh produce and additional snacks! She was warm, welcoming, and very quick to respond to messages. The small kitchen has everything you need, including a portable HOB burner and an electric frying pan for cooking. Everything is stored in the kitchen cupboards. We loved having air conditioning as we were there during a heat wave. Finally, the best part of our stay was the hospitality of our hosts. I highly recommend this peaceful paradise!

Gorgeous views from self-contained cottage. Well appointed kitchen. Comfy beds. Hot showers with great water pressure. Luxurious breakfast. A little start-gazing from this quiet area a few minutes out of town. Anna-Marie was a wonderful warm friendly host. Would go back there!

The homeowner was very welcoming and shared tomatoes from her garden and eggs from her chickens. She filled the fridge with food for us. The view and sunset were spectacular.

This was our second time here. We love the quiet location, view over farmland and distant view of the bay with sunsets. Anna-Marie has been so generous and friendly, which has very much enhanced our stays here. The cottage is spacious with all that's needed for cooking and relaxing. It is not far to good walking tracks and the ocean. Plenty to see in the greater area. Thanks again and we hope to return.

A dream accommodation! The host has a wonderful way of making everyone feel welcome and comfortable. Their attention to detail and warmth truly make them exceptional hosts! Definitely recommendable

Very individual and spectacular views.

We can’t say good night good things about Anna-Marie and this charming bed-and-breakfast. The amenities and all the extra touches that she puts into your stay shows how much she loves being a hostess for people traveling through New Zealand. Everything was superb! From the linens, to the bathroom, to the food including homemade scones, to the stunning view of Thames, the little sheep right beside us—the list could go on and on.

Absolutely nothing could have been better-:)

Stunning location and great hospitality

Nice and quiet. Had everything we needed and a nice view

Absolutely Fabulous. The hosts went above and beyond. Thanks so much from Emily and David

Lovely spot, excellent hosts, well appointed and comfortable. Felt very spoiled staying here.

The only downside of the fabulous location, complete with great views, is that the road and drive are steep. All this meant was that we parked at the start of the cycle trail instead of riding there (no big deal).

Food was great, so many options available. The owners also provided so many snacks and treats, such welcoming hosts. We will be staying there again! The hosts could not have done more for us. An amazing place to stay.

Everything was perfect.

We were staying in the self contained cottage and were surprised by the wonderful supply of breakfast items to cook our own breakfast. The view was wonderful, and we enjoyed sitting on the porch watching the sunset. Hosts were very friendly.

Everything!! It was a wonderful stay and a great cottage!! Excellent breakfast, especially the home-made food. If we come back to NZ we would book it definitively again. We can recommend it 100%

Everything! Situated above Thames with great views, Anna-Marie and Johan were perfect hosts for our 3 night stay. The Cottage is spacious and comfortable. The breakfast provisions were more than generous and Anna-Marie kept us supplied with additional treats.

The room was very comfortable with lots of extras, fruit, magazines , a lovely outdoor setting with table and chairs. We arrived latter in the day but the next morning we received our scones and cream…delicious ! A lovely breakfast and coffee.

We got upgraded to the cottage which was amazing. The host is super keen and gave us little treats once we arrived and stuff to cook our own breakfast. Access to a pool and the most amazing sunset view. The cottage facility is amazing.

Everything - location, hosts, view, premises, amenities

Breakfast was fantastic, very delicious and plenty to choose from

Everything was great. Thank you.

A charming property separate from the main house which gave us privacy. Accommodation was spacious, clean and comfortable with wonderful views of the bay and surrounding lands. Our hosts were very helpful, informative but especially accommodating with our needs. Anna Marie is so obliging and a wonderful cook. Her breakfasts were exceptional with generous provision and delicious extras. The accommodation is very well provided with all the necessary gadgets High made self catering so simple. Thanks Anna Marie and Johan. Pool use was so welcome.

We thought no barbecue might be a slight issue but it quickly proved to not be a problem at all due to the very well equipped kitchen meaning we could still enjoy superb Angus steaks, thanks NZ.

Chartre Manor was for us an ideal place to stay. We were warmly greeted by Anna-Marie and she went over and above to supply us with breakfast food, snacks, drinks, which we highly appreciated. The location on a hill overlooking the land and the water was great. There were sheep and rabbits in the field, which along with the many birds gave a relaxing atmosphere. The cottage is very quiet and spacious. Thames has several good restaurants. We would definitely stay here again when we visit New Zealand.

Very friendly host - could not do enough. Good location, comfortable, plenty to eat. Welcome drink. Lots of good advice of where to go in Coromandel
