About this property

Quaint character cottage on working farmlet, Running Sheep & Beef.

  • Situated in the tranquil Dovedale valley on a property steeped in history, this cottage offers visitors a unique getaway destination - a chance to relax and unwind in the old wooden rocker on the verandah, entertained by birds and the hum of bees, in well kept park like grounds, with a ponding feature incorporating a natural stream separating the cottage from the owners "Villa".
    Upper Moutere village is only a 15 minute drive away for stores, cafe, takeaways the local pub, tennis courts, gym,
    10km from the Motueka river which offers great fishing, swimming, rafting, etc. with both Kaiteriteri and Tahunanui beaches within a 40 min drive. Nelson lakes and Rainbow ski field in one direction, Takaka, Golden Bay the other, Mt Arthur and the tablelands in another, all are near enough for a great day out.
    Art and craft galleries, wineries and cafes, golf links, horseriding, cycle trails, whatever the interest, there is something near by for everybody.
    Special conditions:
    Dogs are welcome by negotiation. Maximun number, 2. A Fee of $20.00 per night per dog applies.
    We ask that they bring their own bed and be kept off the furniture.
    As we are a working farmlet, they may need to be restrained, However there are good verandahs for weather protection, and plenty of space around the cottage for exercising.


    Extras: Linen/Bedding (included); Fully equipped Kitchen.
    Peaceful country surroundings
    Olde World Feel.
