Stunning location. Very quiet. Private. Perfect place to relax. Lovely deck to sit outside. We were able to have our dogs onsite. Friendly owner who greeted us. Shower good. Beds comfy.

Shelf above a very small bathroom sink made brushing teeth a bit difficult. Rubbish bin really small and was overflowing even though we were away much of the time. An outside rubbish bin would be useful. A light above kitchen sink could be added, it's quite dark in that area.

A lovely small country cottage in a beautiful garden. The view is breathtaking and in the distance Auckland is just visible. The cottage is perfect to wind down after a long flight. Everything needed for a breakfast was available. Self made ham and cheese sandwiches from Carolyn gave us the boost for the rest of the day. The cottage is clean and well locked after. It also has a covered veranda which allowed us to watch the thunderstorm pass by. We wish we could have stayed longer.

A little mustard for the ham and cheese sandwich? :-)

I loved that it is tucked away in the Clevedon countryside, just birdsong, lovely views, quietness, far removed from the bustle of Aucklans many cities. Carolyn is an excellent host/owner who helped with planning of seeing the sights of Auckland and what was around Clevedon itsef and suggestions on drives, parks, food provisions and eateries. Carolyn had put together an informative guest manual on the above so it was great sitting down and doing some reading on everything. I stayed for a week and was able to use the washing machine which helped me enormously during my stay, thank you so much and im sure I'll visit again and use your fantastic facilities. Thank you so much Carolyn. A friend came to visit to pick me up on the NZ Garden and House magazìne tour for Clevedon and was astounded at how lovely the facilities are and will bring her mum up from Hamilton to stay at some point in the future.

There was nothing i didnt like about Auckland Country Cottages.

Location across the road from a wedding venue we are attending. Perfect for us. Carolyn greeted us on arrival and then left us to it which we appreciated. She helped us with an extra bed and cot in our room - thank you for this. Very lovely location, quiet and tranquil setting.

Carolyn went above and beyond to make sure that our trip was special! Spotlessly clean lodge and superb breakfast - thank you so much for accommodating us with lovely fruit and yogurt! Also she helped with booking a great local Indian restaurant for supper.

It was so quiet and had a beautiful outlook. Very thoughtful with the amenities such as plenty of kitchen stuff, nice bathroom products etc. It was very hot and the host put the air con on for us so the room was lovely and cool before we arrived.

The location really suited us as there was nothing else available in the area. My colleague stayed there and was very happy with the owners and comfort. Nice rural setting as well.

We loved everything. The quietness, surrounded by bush, birds singing. Plenty of room to safely run our dogs and grass nicely mown so picking up after our dogs was very easy. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. We really appreciate the abundance of pillows on the beds. My sister and I both have bad backs so the extra pillows and the very comfy beds were a godsend! The shower was The Best! We will be very happy to stay in Tui Cottage every time we have Dog Scentwork Trials in Auckland. Ten Stars! We loved our stay.

I cannot think of even one thing I'd change! Truly as close to perfect as we could imagine.

Just the place i was looking for 😍 I loved that it was quite, peaceful, beautiful views. A place were you can really unwind an relax. value for money 👍. Very well stocked with cleaning products kitchen utensils, towels ect. perfect shower pressure. 👌 I would definitely book again. Thank you very much Carolyn

My partner and I stayed here for 3 nights and we just had an amazing time. Our cottage was clean. We had a restful and relaxing sleep as it was quiet and peaceful. The view was great. There are so many beautiful spots to go to with a short drive. Auckland CBD takes about 30 mins without traffic, and that was just perfect, close enough to the center but far from all the hustle and bustle of the city! Thank you so much :)
