Louisa Cottage Private with All Round Rural Views

This cottage is conveniently located near to Havelock North and Hastings, being only 5 minutes from Havelock North and less than 15 minutes from Hastings city centre. It is built within a 2 hectare (five acre) lifestyle block, being about 100 metres distance from the main residence. It is very private, has extensive rural views and is set within nicely maintained grounds. The Louisa Stream (hence the cottage name) runs nearby, and parents of young children must provide necessary supervision. Please note: WE DO NOT CHARGE FOR CHILDREN UNDER 3 YEARS OLD, SO DO NOT COUNT THEM AS A GUEST. The cottage is not suitable for wheelchair access.
There is a secure floor safe suitable for passports, cash, valuables etc. Please ask if you want a key to this safe.
The cottage enjoys all day sun, with both a North and a West facing deck. There is a stunning view south towards Mount Erin, and because there is little light pollution, the night sky is spectacular.
There is a large hedge separating the cottage grounds from the adjoining property, which is planted with vegetables.
The owners have pet hens and a rooster. If the hens co-operate (they are rather temperamental) they may produce some eggs for our guests! The birds are about 60 metres distance from the cottage. There is other birdlife around, including Pukekos who can screech at night.

Special conditions:
Guests must set our intruder alarm to armed when they are out.
We do not want any smoking on our property.
The decks are only about 400mm high, but have no railing so may not be suitable for small children unless supervised.
No pets.

Extras: Cleaning (included); Linen (included);

Louisa Cottage is a cosy 'home away from home' with everything imaginable on hand to make the stay great. The bed was comfy and the sun shone into the cottage from morning when I had breakfast at the table until late afternoon when I could lounge on the couch. Julie, the host, was incredibly friendly and helpful. Thank you for everything.
Cottage on a sunny winter's day.
Dining area so light and airy.

Julie was one of the best hosts we have met. Her cottage was warm and welcoming just like her. Kitchen was fully equipped and thank you for the freshly laid eggs, milk, bread and hubby really enjoyed the preserved apricots and homemade muesli. Yum. We will definitely be back.
