Russell
This house is basically new and could easily have appeared in the pages of Architectural Digest. It is bright and airy, with sliding doors that capture a cool breeze from the hillside. The furniture and beds are very comfortable, the kitchen is exceptionally well appointed. The neighborhood is quiet, no road noise.

Awesome Accomodation Awesome Hosts
First time in Russell perfect place to stay! Great location just on the edge of town so you get peace and quiet if needed or can be in the centre in a few minutes. The property sits up a hill don’t get a beautiful bay view with the boats below. Everything was well stocked, super tidy and nearly brand new so certainly no old kiwi bach. Hosts were great to deal with excellent communications. Already looking at booking again for next summer! The Moore family.
