Sallie Payne
This holiday cottage is fabulous, everything about it is beautiful, we saw dolphins just a short walk from the cottage, a dairy just across the road. Love garden, great areas to sit out and follow the sunshine. Comfortable beds, great Wi-Fi , fantastic laundry room with everything you could want, we travelled 11,000 miles from the UK and were so glad of the comfort Tae cottage provided. We are coming back to stay longer & hope to book Tae Cottage. Hosts are absolutely amazing, interesting, helpful, and on hand if you needed anything at all. Great part of our NZ visit. Thank you Aprile xx
Response from Owner
Thank you so much Sallie for the wonderful review and comments. It was such a pleasure to meet and host you. I am so glad you enjoyed your stay and that you will be coming back again. Am so looking forward to seeing you again. For any Hosts reading this - I would like to let you know that I highly recommend Sallie and Gary. They were a lovely friendly couple that treated the Cottage as their own and left it as they found it - clean and tidy. Also great communication which was 2nd to none.
ROB MORGAN
Very clean nicely maintained traditional rustic cottage. All the basic comforts of home with private patio on the side for al fresco dining and beautiful peaceful area at the back to sit and relax. Dairy close by for essentials with beach access and city of Timaru a short drive up the road. Aprile was our most friendly, generous and kind hostess. She ensured we had a very enjoyable and trouble free stay and it was a real joy to have met her. Rob and Mary Morgan
