Auckland Country Cottages

The scenery is amazing and beautiful.

It was a very warm and cosy unit. It had everything we needed in it. We were greeted when we arrived by the host Carolyn who was very friendly and helpful. We had access to a hot tub which was a winner with some visitors who visited us. A bonus was that we were able to bring our small dog with us. We hope to return the next time we are visiting.

There wasn't anything much we didn't like. I looked for a small stick vacuum ..or a handheld dust buster. We tried to leave the unit as tidy as it was when we arrived

Beautiful peaceful surroundings shared with the beautiful native birds Thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay there. The cottage was beautiful. Spotlessly clean and comfortable. The host Carolyn was amazing. We stayed for a dog show in Ardmore and our 2 fur babies were welcomed. I highly recommend Auckland Country Cottages and will definitely be staying there again

Die Lage war sehr schön und ruhig auf dem Hügel. Die Ausstattung war durch eine elektrische Pfanne für mich überraschend gut gewesen. Alles war perfekt 👍

Nur mit dem winzigen Waschbecken im Bad war es schwierig gewesen die Zähne zu putzen.

A comfortable cottage in a lovely setting

The environment were beautiful and comfortable cottage.The host were very helpful,caring and accomodative!

The toilets were little small.

Very clean, awesome showers, very comfortable, with heaps of extras - soaps, tea and coffee, towels, etc,etc. Carolyn is a wonderful hostess, constantly making sure we were all good. Awesome location with breathtaking scenery. Already planned to go back.

Private, quiet

A musty/ moldy smell in the cottage

Stunning location. Very quiet. Private. Perfect place to relax. Lovely deck to sit outside. We were able to have our dogs onsite. Friendly owner who greeted us. Shower good. Beds comfy.

Shelf above a very small bathroom sink made brushing teeth a bit difficult. Rubbish bin really small and was overflowing even though we were away much of the time. An outside rubbish bin would be useful. A light above kitchen sink could be added, it's quite dark in that area.

Location across the road from a wedding venue we are attending. Perfect for us. Carolyn greeted us on arrival and then left us to it which we appreciated. She helped us with an extra bed and cot in our room - thank you for this. Very lovely location, quiet and tranquil setting.

Carolyn went above and beyond to make sure that our trip was special! Spotlessly clean lodge and superb breakfast - thank you so much for accommodating us with lovely fruit and yogurt! Also she helped with booking a great local Indian restaurant for supper.

Nothing

The location really suited us as there was nothing else available in the area. My colleague stayed there and was very happy with the owners and comfort. Nice rural setting as well.

Was very close to the dog show ground where we were showing our dogs

The location

Wonderful location and host.

It was so quiet and had a beautiful outlook. Very thoughtful with the amenities such as plenty of kitchen stuff, nice bathroom products etc. It was very hot and the host put the air con on for us so the room was lovely and cool before we arrived.

A lovely small country cottage in a beautiful garden. The view is breathtaking and in the distance Auckland is just visible. The cottage is perfect to wind down after a long flight. Everything needed for a breakfast was available. Self made ham and cheese sandwiches from Carolyn gave us the boost for the rest of the day. The cottage is clean and well locked after. It also has a covered veranda which allowed us to watch the thunderstorm pass by. We wish we could have stayed longer.

A little mustard for the ham and cheese sandwich? :-)

Absolutely loved the property and the cottage! Stayed over Christmas with my family , very peaceful and beautiful with an amazing host ❤️

Location was convenient for us, and an easy drive into the city. Very quiet. Enjoyed our stay.

I loved that it is tucked away in the Clevedon countryside, just birdsong, lovely views, quietness, far removed from the bustle of Aucklans many cities. Carolyn is an excellent host/owner who helped with planning of seeing the sights of Auckland and what was around Clevedon itsef and suggestions on drives, parks, food provisions and eateries. Carolyn had put together an informative guest manual on the above so it was great sitting down and doing some reading on everything. I stayed for a week and was able to use the washing machine which helped me enormously during my stay, thank you so much and im sure I'll visit again and use your fantastic facilities. Thank you so much Carolyn. A friend came to visit to pick me up on the NZ Garden and House magazìne tour for Clevedon and was astounded at how lovely the facilities are and will bring her mum up from Hamilton to stay at some point in the future.

There was nothing i didnt like about Auckland Country Cottages.

The location was lovely a great way to end our time in New Zealand in a rural location close to airport and with wonderful views. Was great to wake up in the morning and be above the clouds of fog.

Only down side was the size of the bathroom area was too small. To be specific shower was fine, but to dry yourself and brush your teeth the area is not practical had to open the door to the living area.

I love the view in the morning, being out of the rat race of auckland but close enough to get to the motorways to see the sights. Carolyn is a marvellous host, the cottages quiet, warm and lovely.

There is nothing i didnt like.

Such a wonderful host. Beautiful little cabin in a quiet rural environment yet still close enough to town. Cabin has a lovely deck perfect for watching sunrises in the morning and the city lights at night.

Easy hassle free check in, just far enough for peace and quiet, but not too far to be completely isolated and cut off. Wonderful stay.

The odd idiot racing up and down the road on a motor bike in the middle of the night.

The property was nice and calming with beautiful views.

location great and peaceful place to stay and relax. we had been travelling for some time and needed to relax so perfect for that!

a bit further from airport than expected but that’s not really something we didn’t like about the property.

lovely and quiet perfect for 2 people, location was perfect , easy to find

no dislikes at all

Just the place i was looking for 😍 I loved that it was quite, peaceful, beautiful views. A place were you can really unwind an relax. value for money 👍. Very well stocked with cleaning products kitchen utensils, towels ect. perfect shower pressure. 👌 I would definitely book again. Thank you very much Carolyn

The peacefulness. We sat on the porch each evening to watch the sun go down, and see the rabbits and birds going about their lives.

Really tidy cottage with everything we need. Beautiful rural surroundings with lovely views. Easy access to local villages, beaches and nature reserves. Nice and clean with friendly and helpful host.

Great views and nice quiet location close to Clevedon

Nice quiet rural setting. Very clean with good beds and shower. Found furniture made eating and sitting uncomfortable. Heating meals required some juggling with only 2 bowls and mismatched lid for heating in microwave. Insect screen over at least one window are needed so can leave a window open at night.

Carolyn, the owner, was so thoughtful and helpful - nothing was too much trouble. The complementary breakfasts were fantastic and I was impressed, having mentioned that my wife was coeliac she provided a variety of gluten-free foods. And she was happy to recommend local attractions, cafes, restaurants too. For a relaxing holiday there Auckland Country Cottages are a must.

Loved the outlook and location of the motel. Best breakfast ever provided for guests.

A cordial welcome from the host. Cabin was sufficient for our requirements. A peaceful location but handy to nearby town centres.

Perfekter Ausgangspunkt, um Auckland und die Umgebung zu erkunden. Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin, die einem auch bei der Tourenplanung gerne behilflich ist. Wer Ruhe und Entspannung sucht, ist hier genau richtig. Klare Weiterempfehlung!

We needed to rest up for four days after arriving late on the first night. Our hosts made us very welcome. Great communication, cosy and clean unit, fresh bread and fruit for breakfast.

Had a wonderful stay. The view was breath taking.

Facilities: Above average; Service: Outstanding; Cleanliness: Beautiful; Excellent host
