About this property

Taraview Cottage - Fully self contained

Great central location when exploring the Wairarapa. Taraview is situated in a rural setting with fabulous view of the Tararua ranges 2kms from Greytown and a 10 minute drive to Martinborough
Romantic place to stay for couples as it has a huge claw foot bath big enough for 2 and yet also great place to stay for a couple with kids and a dog with half an acre of private fully fenced land to run about on.
Kept warm in the winter months with a log burner.

Dogs are welcome just bring something for them to sleep on and we ask you please do not leave them unattended at the cottage unless crated.

Gorgeous Greytown

Lovely cottage surrounded by magical gardens, filled with bees and butterflies! We found the road noise a bit loud but earplugs sorted that. The cottage is filled with charm and character. Great location to explore the area. Fantastic to be able to bring our spotty Poppi dog with us ;) Thanks Jeannie!

A lovely family escape

Was great to be able to stay out in the country on the outskirts of Greytown. We went to Mt Holdsworth and did a wonderful bush walk. We loved being able to bring the dog and having a super place for him to run around. Thank you.
