Amazing views
We had a wonderful stay, everything was clean and well appointed, the views were amazing, it was an easy walk to the beach, the weather was a bit unpredictable but because we were cozy and warm and could enjoy the view on the days we had to stay inside it didn't matter. We have no hesitations in recommending for your next Riverton stay.

Girls mid-winter polar plunge
We did it, we braved the mid-winter waters then returned to a most beautiful warm house, to admire the spot where it all took place! Later that night we soaked in the outdoor bath, under a gorgeous starry night. No sign of Matariki in the early morning due to cloud but so fabulous that I could check from the comfort of my bed. Highly recommend this friendly warm and welcoming accommodation. Thank you!

A Wonderful Place to relax.
Was perfect for what we wanted. A couple of days away with granddaughter and doggies was perfect. We loved the house and the dogs loved the big fully fenced garden. Was a special time. Such a pretty wee house with all the mid cons and many extras. Thank you so much.

Relaxing stay
A very quaint batch that is well kept and maintained and had all that we needed to have a hassle-free relaxing break. We loved the garden setting and of course the view of the ocean from the veranda. a few minutes walk from the beach and the local dairy, we will be back again to enjoy.
