Charming villa on tree-lined street
This 1900s villa is set up for both relaxing and business trips, families with older children, couples or small groups. It has plenty of character from the gardens to the decor. It sits on a tree lined street with a creek behind it. From the deck you will hear the birds chirping and water running while you cook on the bbq. The cottage garden is charming when in bloom. The house is comfortable and cosy in winter with a wood burner and heat pump. The bedrooms have panel heaters and there is a heat transfer system which can keep the house at a comfortable temperature. The beds have hypoallergenic mattress and pillow protectors and quality cotton sheets with bedding for all temperatures. The shower has great water pressure and there is a separate bath which is ideal for unwinding. The living room is cosy and sits on one side of the fully equipped kitchen with entertainer's oven. On the other side of the kitchen is the dining room which seats up to six.

We spent a week in Dunedin for a university conference and had a lovely time at the property. The house was cozy, well-appointed, and convenient for public transit (on the 8 bus). Would definitely stay again.
Kitchen is fully equipped, laundry is functional, beds are comfortable. Spacious enough for most needs. The owners are friendly and easy to contact if there are any issues.
A lovely cottage gardened small villa with absolutely everything we needed. Well chosen artifacts in the house in keeping with the home. Quiet neighbourhood on a bus route. We loved our stay thank you.

This was a beautiful home and property and made the last bit of our trip incredible. It’s on a quiet street within a mile of anything you could need. The hosts were lovely and accommodating. Definitely take a soak in the claw foot tub if you get the chance.
The hosts were wonderful. Very easy and quick to communicate with. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. A nice base for a great week exploring the Dunedin area.
The house is exactly as advertised, very clean, with a beautiful garden. It is in a good location for seeing the sights in Dunedin. The owners are extremely responsive and fixed a minor issue within minutes of our reporting it. We would absolutely stay here again.
A beautiful, well-appointed little house. It was lovely and warm, with a very comfortable bed and was sparkling clean. Nadine was easy to communicate with and kept the house warm for us when we arrived. Thanks, Nadine!
Stayed at this beautiful villa, well set-up and easy access, close to most of my son's college. Hosts were very helpful and kind, we had everything we needed and the log burner was great at keeoong us warm. The house is so well equipped, would like to stay here again next time we're in Dunedin.
Thank you for sharing your charming villa with us :)
We enjoyed our stay at your villa in North East Dunedin. The home was well appointed and warm with the wood fire being a bonus. It was well located and handy to the University and CBD. You were responsive and instructions were clear.
Thank you for a pleasant stay Nadine.
The house suited what we needed to accommodate various family members and to be close to our Dunedin family. Really appreciated the wood burner which kept the living space cosy on the cold winter mornings and evenings. Nadine and Jake were very responsive to queries and fixing the dripping tap. Overall very happy.
Staying here was like a home away from home. We appreciated the thoughtful touches such as fresh flowers and milk and tips for local cafes. Coming home to a fire after a day of sightseeing was wonderful. This place was beautiful in autumn. Would love to stay here again!

Great place to stay warm everything we needed thanks Nadine
There was everything we needed here including lots of heating. We were very impressed with the wood burner and all the beautifully cut firewood. We also enjoyed discovering Chingford Park down the end of the Place.
This house has lots of space, and is well-equipped. It was especially nice to have a kitchen that allowed us to actually cook a meal! The garden/yard is wonderful...with lots of native plants, and birds...
The location is also very good. We used this house as a base for four days of travel in and around the area.
If back in the area, we would definitely stay here again!
