ACCOMMODATION

Relax. Explore. It’s all here.

Located on a 5th generation family farm in peaceful Patearoa, Central Otago, ‘The Cottage’ will immediately pull you into the simplicity and comfort of country life – a quaint, peaceful, relaxing escape.

The Cottage is the ideal place to rest, recharge and reconnect. Perfect for couples’ getaways, family holidays, gatherings with friends, or accommodation while doing the Rail Trail.

Dogs (outside only) and horses are welcome and an airstrip is available if you wish to fly in/out.

'The Cottage' was built over 100 years ago for Fred and Violet McSkimming and was crafted from mud bricks that were made onsite. It has recently been lovingly restored inside and out so it can continue to be used and enjoyed by future generations, friends, family and visitors to the area.

Basking in the sun and restored with holiday makers in mind, the charming cottage offers endless ways to relax and unwind. From enjoying your morning cup of tea or coffee on the veranda while soaking in the views, to enjoying a glass of wine while watching the sun go down, playing board games in front of the cosy fire, streaming a movie, or taking in the spectacular night sky on a clear evening.

We welcome our guests as we welcome our friends and family – with home baking for you to enjoy with a cuppa.

The Cottage has three bedrooms and can accommodate up to six guests. There are two bedrooms inside the cottage (bedroom one: 1x king bed, bedroom two: 2x king single beds) and a bunk room accessed via the porch (1x single bunk). Free Wi-Fi is available and there's a Smart TV for those that want to catch-up on their favourite TV series or watch a movie.
