Milton Manors - 101 Pet Friendly House on the Hill

This charming 1928 bungalow sits in the heart of Bluff Hill, Napier and is a short walk to many restaurants and cafes. Dine in or out, a fully equipped kitchen means the choice is yours. Enjoy the morning sun when you open the French doors to a sunny, private deck and paved patio or snuggle in and relax in the ambiance of the warm gas fired fireplace. Unlimited wifi, free to view tv and blue tooth stereo means the entertainment options can fit your unique style and choice.
A seasoned traveler, Mary has created a haven with many special touches; superior linens (100% cotton) and towels and a helpful host who lives just a couple of doors away. Oh and she will consider pets by prior arrangement as she knows how nice it is to travel with your pooch - (that's Betty her cavalier king charles spaniel in the photos - who does NOT live at 101:)

Milton manor

We loved staying at the Milton property! It was lovely, comfortable, clean and handy to everything in Napier! It was great for our dog Benji too as it was fully fenced and safe for him. Mary the host was great at communicating and ensuring we were happy and had everything we needed. We would def stay here again next time we come down. Vivienne Cooke

Little Napier Gem

Clean and modern home close to everything - owner is friendly and organised and thoughtful - she left some milk in the fridge which was fantastic and our little dog was able to come. The gas fireplace was amazing as was having an en-suite with a heated floor and heat lights. Fresh linen and towels provided - it was great to be able to arrive and leave so easily. Fenced section perfect for our dog and young child. Kitchen well stocked with everything you need and has a dishwasher. Wifi was also much appreciated. Even brochures on local attractions were provided.

Dream Stay!

Absolutely amazing property, lovely to sit in the sun outside with a wine on the loungers. Great big kitchen with so many amenities. Large bedrooms with big soft beds, amazing feather pillows! Air con was absolutely needed and appreciated. And the extra fan too! We loved staying here, it was tidy, clean, modern and just a really fantastic stay. Great location - although a little scary the driveway being close to a blind corner, but a lot of the streets in napier are windy and the locals must be used to it. Didn't have any trouble or issues. Thanks for an amazing well priced stay!

Awesome cottage in a fantastic part of Napier

Excellent quality accomodation, ease of checking in through to lovely furnishings and extras - cotton towels, body wash, washing up liquid etc. Great location a few minutes drive from central Napier or walking distance if preferred. Fully fenced section which was child friendly, and great heating options for those colder nights. Thanks again team.

Lovely stay on the hill

Greatly enjoyed our stay at this property. Comfy beds (love the feather down pillows and Duvet!) the house is well appointed and has great shower pressure. Made use of the Webber Q BBQ out the back and the island kitchen is great. Will be staying here again for sure. Thanks Mary for being such a great host.

The bungalow was gorgeous. Beautifully furnished and decorated and had everything you could possibly need. Lovely touches like body wash,hand wash etc. Very close proximity to Marine Parade, shops and cafes. Mary was easy to contact and let us have our 2 British Bulldogs stay.

Fabulous stay. Wonderful and close to everything there is to do in Napier.

Staying at 101 on the hill was fabulous. Because Murphy (our dog) was able to stay. This meant we could come away. We did some amazing walks around the area. Ate out at delicious cafes, restaurants and really got to relax. Because of the brilliant location we came and went all day. Would definitely recommend and will definitely stay again. Thanks Mary for letting us stay. The house worked so well for us all.
