With a superb central location and the added indulgence of a spa pool, it's a delightful retreat you'll love to unwind in. This house has a 3pm check in time. If the house is ready earlier, we will happily message you and let you know on the day. All linen and towels are included in the nightly rate. For stays over seven nights, guests can request fresh linen to be delivered. This service must be requested at the time of booking. The house does have an elevated deck - if staying with young children, outdoor furniture should not be placed near the edge as this will create a potential falling hazard. Please note there is a motion sensored security camera at the entrance door.

Please note that the cottage is located on the Main Road so there may be some car noise at night. If you are sensitive to noise the second bedroom is located to the rear of the property away from the road or bring suitable earplugs with you. Raglan has something for everyone. Kotare Cottage is ideally located to explore the local area. The vibrant café and arts scene in Raglan township is just a 10 minute walk or 1 minute drive away. There’s a wealth of delicious dining options to choose from, along with specialist arts and crafts shops to explore. Also within easy reach are the supermarket and shopping facilities. Experienced Surfers will love the big waves at world-famous Manu Bay. And Ngarunui Beach is a favorite for families that enjoy the more mellow West coast wave action. From Kotare Cottage it is a short 15 minute stroll to Lorenzen Bay which is a great spot for swimming, kayaking or just relaxing in the sunshine. You may even get lucky and spot one of the orcas that regularly come to visit the bays. For those wanting a change from all that sea and sand, there are many excellent walking tracks and we include details of these in the house information folder. Within easy reach are the Mt Karioi summit tracks or Te Toto Gorge track.
