About this property
DoLittle Cottage on organic citrus orchard, farm animals, pool, total bliss
This charming, very private, self-contained cottage is set in the middle of our organic citrus orchard, just 5 km outside of Kerikeri. Come swim in the pool, feed the friendly farm animals (chickens, kune kune pigs) and take a stroll between the fruit trees. Our DoLittle Cottage is double glazed and fully insulated which makes it nice and warm in winter and cool in summer and extremely quiet. It is uniquely designed and handcrafted from New Zealand grown timber. For some extra comfort our DoLittle Cottage is equipped with screened windows, heat pump, Smart TV with Netflix, DVD, hairdryer, microwave, outside furniture on the private, covered deck, free wifi, tea/coffee and other amenities. We have fiber wifi and quality linen and towels are provided.
