Built from New Zealand-grown timbers, the cosy cottage has a comfortable super king loft bed, kitchen-living area and bathroom. There's a wood burner to keep you snug and double French doors with a pretty outlook to a gorgeous glade. Waingawa River is within a stones throw. Take a stroll to the spring fed four-metre waterfall and swimming hole, where you can swim, read, sunbathe and relax. Or wander through the native bush for a rejuvenating walk in the cool forest air. In the evening, take a soak in the wood-fired outdoor bath and watch as the river flows past. Doze to the sounds of the river and bird singsong. After dark, snuggle up on your private porch and stargaze at the expansive Wairarapa sky.
