Additional Information

Spacious open plan living area with quality furnishings. The Master bedroom has a King size bed, French doors onto the deck with views of the hills, valley and horses. The second bedroom has either two single beds or a Super King double bed and also enjoys French doors onto the deck. Both bedrooms boast goose down duvets and the finest Egyptian linen.

There is a double shower in the bathroom with tiled under-floor heating and heated towel rails. Utter luxury. The second bathroom is a powder room with magnifying mirror for perfect make up application!

Outside you will love the covered Summer House with open fire and curtains so that you can pull them up or down depending on the weather. On the top deck you have a fire pit for long summer evenings as well as a luxury cedar hot tub.

You have the entire house to yourselves which includes a huge deck overlooking the horse farm and down the valley, plus a grass lawn with a lower deck.

I will be on hand if you have any queries. There is a lockbox where the key will be.

This is a quiet and friendly no through road with the beach at the end which is used by walkers and horse riders.

Parking is included but I would recommend your own transport as the nearest train station is five-minute drive away.

Clay Shooting by arrangement.

Channel your inner Dirty Harry and reek revenge on the clay pigeons.
Two guns for one hour: $750

I am a former BBC journalist who currently runs this beautiful events venue at Sudbury. I love good grammar, good food and lovely linen. I enjoy riding my horse on the beach and meeting my guests who come from far and wide. I'm originally from London and have lived in New Zealand for almost 20 year. Haven't managed to lose the accent though! I hope you enjoy stating at Cottage 103 where you can enjoy 5 star luxury in the country. Your own personal rural retreat!
