Featuring free WiFi and a patio, Sunny Glen Cottage is a holiday home, situated in Waikanae. The air-conditioned unit is 39 km from Lower Hutt and 60 km from Wellington. Free private parking is available on site.

This is a lovely, spacious and meticulous cottage behind the main house. There is a pretty garden and the walking trail to Waikanae Beach and The Scientific Nature Reserve is right behind the house. The hosts met us when we arrived to see if we needed anything. They are very friendly and gave us great info on local hikes, activities, and restaurants. I highly recommend this cottage!

Offering free WiFi, free onsite parking and a hot tub, the 2-bedroom Cottage 103 is located in Waikanae.

Cottage 103 is 12 km from Paraparaumu. It is 40 km from Porirua and 46 km from Lower Hutt.

The nearest airport is Paraparaumu Airport, which is 12 km from the Cottage.

As a world traveller I have stayed in many places. This one I walked in at instantly felt at home and very happy. Not only was everything spic and span physically but also energetically. There was no sense of many people having been there. The space was clean and clear and spacious just for us. I will always remember this feeling. The decor was bright and light without creating any "imprints" on the mind. Even the soap was not your every day soap but of high standard. The sun shining in over the mountains in the morning created a sense of 'all is well'. There are excellent curtains should you prefer the dark. We stayed here on the way to the south island to be close to the ferry. There is the hum of the motorway way off in the background which did not bother us at all, and I am highly sensitive. The quality of this place, its energy and its setting in the rolling hills I cannot recommend this place high enough, and myself would always come back here when in the area. I would give this place 10 stars if I could.
