    We loved being so close to Dunedin but being on a lovely farm.

    This is a really excellent place to stay if you like being surrounded by nature but only a few minutes drive to the city. You wake up to the sun rising, beautiful scenery and a few goats and deer! The cottage is very well set-up and has...

    Located a short distance from Dunedin City Centre, this private little cottage was comfortable, homely and wonderfully clean and quiet, with the pleasant exception of bird calls and goats bleating. Ngaire made the stay special with extra touches...

Relax in a serviced, 1-bedroom cottage in the misty clouds and experience a NZ semi-rural style living. A sunny, clean and tidy, 44 square metre, 2-room detached guesthouse sits behind our house in the heart of a unique 6-acre property. You are nestled below awesome pine trees with a well-appointed courtyard garden. Height of Dunedin is a lovely peaceful and tranquil hideaway slightly out of the city. We are a 5km drive to a supermarket, cafes and restaurants. It is a direct 10 minutes’ drive to the Octagon and local sites. Recharge with a wine under the outdoor veranda. Be amazed by the magnificent Milky Way. Catch a shooting star and the Southern Cross wonderfully clear away from city lights. You can hand feed the pet animals in a self-guided tour and awaken to the morning chorus of local birdlife. Bird watch for these species that are either resident or fly in seasonally: tuis, bellbirds, rosella parrots, wood pigeons, magpies, paradise ducks, hawks, owls and pet hens.
We are a young couple with 2 children. We live on a lifestyle property with the cottage that is well-appointed about 20 metres from our home. During the weekends and summer evenings we enjoy working outside on our mini-farm, with our animals, our ever-growing lawn and never ending need for firewood. If there is anything we can do to make your stay more comfortable or answer queries we invite you to visit or contact us. We are passionate about being accommodating and responsive.
All this at 350 metres above sea level guarantees some snow falls during winter and beautiful, picturesque surroundings. Local Attractions: Within walking distance of forest tracks, and especially close to the Flagstaff-Pineapple Walk, with its stunning views of Dunedin and the Otago Peninsula from the western hill skyline. A short drive to a supermarket, cafes, restaurants, Moana Pool and Speights Brewery. An easy and direct 10 min drive to the Octagon, Taieri Gorge Railway, Toitu Otago Settlers Museum, Otago University or Mosgiel. 8 km to the Forsyth Barr Stadium. 25 minute from Dunedin Airport. Extra Services: Would you like to book a farm tour with our sons Leo and Toby (10,7) who will show you around with an opportunity to ask questions, feed, pet and have close encounters with goats, deer and chickens? (extra charge). There is no washing machine but there is a laundromat within a 10 minute drive. We also offer a wash and dry laundry service. Baby-sitting service (extra charge). Tour assistance for local activities.
