    Wish we could have stayed longer - sad to leave

    What a gem! Thank you to Elana for taking such great care of this beautiful cottage - immaculate, clean, comfortable, and with a delicious fruit bowl, food for breakfast and as well a Nespresso coffee machine We especially loved the quiet and private location, the space, the comfy beds - and discovering a very deserted new beach :-)

    Really enjoyed staying at the cottage. Everything you needed was there with supremely comfortable beds and great rural location between Hokitika & Greymouth.

    Delightful,beautifully presented and supplied cottage, with a lovely garden. Wonderfully comfy bed.

    Highway traffic noise meant keeping doors and windows closed for ‘rush’ periods on the state highway. Not much view, except for the garden which made up for it. The location between Hokitika and Greymouth really fitted in with our touring plans.

    Excellently equipped kitchen and pantry. Fresh fruit provided, and ample milk plus frozen bread if we wanted. Loved the garden flowers and the outside dining extras. The bed was the best of any motel we have visited

    Mont’s cottage and gardens were so charming and well cared for. The host left a fruit, milk, bread for guest use. The beach access was a bonus. We spent a month in New Zealand and this was one of our favorite places we stayed.

    Would definitely recommend - and would stay again - but just using the two bedrooms and not the pull out sofa!

    The pull out sofa bed - it would be fine for a small child but really not suitable for an adult /large teenager! Very uncomfortable. The property is close to the main road which isn’t a problem in winter but you’d need to be conscious of the traffic noise if you were wanting to relax outside in the warmer months.

    Super clean, warm and comfortable. The hosts had really thought of everything - which is always so appreciated! It’s a great location, lovely wee house and garden. Close walk to a beautiful West Coast beach.
