About this property

Country Bliss Historic Greytown Cottage

  • Country Bliss Cottage is an original historic Greytown cottage, with origins dating back to the 1880s. Lovingly cared for, the cottage retains its authentic character and charm while offering the modern comforts today’s travellers appreciate.

    Set within a private, sunny garden, the cottage is a peaceful retreat . Mature fruit trees and traditional cottage garden flowers create a relaxed, timeless atmosphere — perfect for unwinding after a day exploring the Wairarapa.

    Inside, the décor is a thoughtful blend of vintage and contemporary, with quality furnishings throughout. In winter, the roaring log fire (with all firewood supplied) creates a wonderfully cosy escape, making Country Bliss an inviting place to stay in every season.

    Although wonderfully quiet and private, the cottage is just an easy walk to Greytown’s cafés, restaurants and boutique shops, offering the best of both worlds.
    Guest access
    Guests have exclusive use of the entire property. You will have the large, private, mature garden to yourselves and are welcome to help yourselves to any produce from the garden during your stay.

    Two bicycles available for exploring the Woodside Rail Trail

    Everything Greytown is known for cafés, boutique shopping and local dining is within walking distance, yet the cottage remains calm and secluded

Perfect getaway

We’ve stayed here before and will stay again, perfect for us and our parents to have a couple of family days away together, lovely outdoor area for meals and close to town yet really peaceful plus we can bring our dog which is our reason for booking properties as he’s always on the tour!

Wonderful historic cottage

My family and I stayed here while visiting New Zealand from Alaska. It is a nice little cottage with a beautiful garden full of citrus trees. The wood stove came in handy on a cold night too. I highly recommend this property to other travelers.

Perfect weekend getaway

The cottage and location are perfect for a weekend away from Wellington. Walk to Greytown centre and the rail trail or just relax in the cute cottage with the wood fire burning. The cottage is very clean and tidy (much nicer than any hotels!) and there’s everything you need. Will definitely be back.

Blissful stay at Country Bliss

The most charming bach we have stayed at in the past few years. Absolutely delightful, comfortable, and so full of character. Beautifully decorated. We enjoyed sitting by the fireplace in the evenings. Came back to Wellington with lemons and feijoas picked from its garden. Will definitely stay there again😊

A really relaxing spot

Amazing garden to spend your days and evenings in. Away from the hustle and bustle of the main St. The 20 minute walk back is enjoyable... And bikes and car another option.
