This is a very cute little cottage. Yes, it’s tiny, but has everything you need and then some, including a wonderful view! A beautiful patio area is great for lounging and enjoying that view. Julie is a joy! She is a great hostess, and very helpful about touring the area. A great stay!!

Bijou Stay In Plimmerton
The host Julie was very hospitable and easy to communicate with - she lives nest door. The property is very, very small and was a just get by for a couple of nights. We were visiting Wellington therefore ideal as a base.

A view to Ssa
We really enjoyed our stay. The space was perfect for a couple. It is very clean and comfortable and there is a great attention to detail. The sitting area outside has an amazing view and this is where we enjoyed our coffee every morning. Julie was a lovely host.

Cute little cottage on a hill in Plimmerton
This was a very quaint and cute hideaway in Plimmerton. A little hard to access but lots of privacy. We found it was pretty small. Good view of the water from up on the hill. Owner is friendly.
