Kereru Cottage Tranquil Setting

Unwind in the tranquil relaxing cottage set amongst bird-rich native bush. At the top of the road is a stunning view of Kapiti Island. Out of the way and yet 5-15 minute drive close shops beautiful beaches, river, stunning bush walks, cycle tracks, aquatic centre and golf courses.
The cottage is situated at the base of the property and your hosts live up the driveway further. Please note there is a friendly old dog 'Jess' that roams the property.
Only 20 minute walk from the cottage to the town centre and railway station. Stay local and enjoy the friendly coastal atmosphere, arts, shops, and cafes or board the train into the buzz of Wellington city.

Best wee spot for a weekend away
Perfect spot to use as a base for your weekend away down the kapiti coast. We checked out the golf courses in the area and real central location to get around and into town. Loved the place, nice and tidy, comfy, warm and amazing hosts to top it all off. Definitely would stay again. Thanks Debbie and Danny
