Wellington - Eastbourne 2 bedrm beachfront cottage with WiFi

Enjoy staying in gorgeous Guthrie Cottage, in a quiet location on the beach-front with the waves almost lapping at your door. It's beautiful, immaculate and very tastefully appointed with your comfort in mind. Free Unlimited WiFi and Netflix. 2 quiet bedrooms with queen sized beds. The lounge has a sofa bed, so the cottage can accommodate 6. Sea views from main bedroom, lounge and dining. Gas central heating.

The cottage is in a quiet residential area and is not suitable for parties. Please restrict outside noise to 9pm in consideration of the neighbours.

The kitchen is well equipped for longer stays, 4 hob, dishwasher and coffee machine or choose one of the local restaurants or cafes to dine at.

Bathroom features shower over the bath, vanity and toilet, heated towel rail for warm towels. Infinity hot water system. Shampoo and conditioner and body wash are included.

Linen is provided. Along with kitchen basics.

There is lots to do - relax in the cottage, enjoy the outdoors, walk in the bush or cycle around the coast. Swim out to the raft which is moored directly in front of the cottage in the summer time. Sip champagne in the outside two, as you look out across the Harbour to the flickering lights of Wellington City. Sit in the front garden or on the sea-wall and watch the Inter-islander ferries go by - if you are lucky you might see some Orcas which are regularly seen each year. Stroll down the beach to the village shops, cafes and restaurants.

The cottage is ideal as a romantic retreat or for a relaxing family holiday or a quick get away from the city.

Guthrie Cottage is a 25 minute drive or ferry ride from Wellington, and a base to explore the lower North Island. Catch the ferry to Picton and visit the South Island.

With the safe swimming beach at your doorstep, the bush at your backyard and stunning sunsets, Guthrie Cottage is the perfect place to stay .

Absolute bliss! The cottage is immaculate, and reflects thoughtful attention to detail in the whole organization of the home. Everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay is provided. Clean, calm, peaceful, amazing views and a location easily walkable to the village and ferry. We are so impressed with how well this timeless property has been maintained over the years. Extremely well done!! What a privilege to enjoy Eastbourne from this cottage. We think it is the best place to stay in all of Wellington!

Beautifully outfitted, perfect location

This beautifully outfitted, recently remodeled property was the perfect getaway. It was lovely waking up to look out the front window at the water every morning and having everything we needed to be able to cook in the well-stocked kitchen. Had a wonderful stay and would definitely go back!

Thank you so much for hosting us at your property. We absolutely loved our stay. The view definitely stole the show and Eastbourne is charming as well. We loved having our morning coffee in the sun room and our evening wine on the porch watching the incredible sunsets.

Winter Relaxation

A beautiful location and a very relaxing stay. Would definitely recommend for a break away! We actually live in Wellington but as we are currently living on our boat while we build our a new home, we were looking for some land time and some bath time to relax in the winter months. Was perfect for us!

As close to the ocean as possible

A beautiful home, with a wonderful view. It was nice to get away from the city and have a comfortable place to relax, but still be close enough for any of the city activities. A truly wonderful property, and a highlight experience.
