Blissful stay at Country Bliss
The most charming bach we have stayed at in the past few years. Absolutely delightful, comfortable, and so full of character. Beautifully decorated. We enjoyed sitting by the fireplace in the evenings. Came back to Wellington with lemons and feijoas picked from its garden. Will definitely stay there again😊

A really relaxing spot
Amazing garden to spend your days and evenings in. Away from the hustle and bustle of the main St. The 20 minute walk back is enjoyable... And bikes and car another option.

Perfect weekend getaway
The cottage and location are perfect for a weekend away from Wellington. Walk to Greytown centre and the rail trail or just relax in the cute cottage with the wood fire burning. The cottage is very clean and tidy (much nicer than any hotels!) and there’s everything you need. Will definitely be back.
