Fist Class Stay
We loved staying at Trish's place - a few minutes walk to the Main Street and some great walks/runs to do - with a swim to cool down at the beaches as needed! The house had all we needed and hearing the kiwi at night was wonderful. This is a hidden gem and we hope to be back one day.

We loved our Russell holiday with the most amazing views
Property was spotless with everything we needed. Amazing views, great communication with the owner. The location was perfect... a short walk to the main shops and a 5 min drive to the beach. We felt this property was perfect for our family with my children being 19 and 12. Thank you so much Trish we had a fabulous time and will definitely book again next time we are in Russell.
