About this property

Wellington - Eastbourne 2 bedrm beachfront cottage with WiFi

Enjoy staying in gorgeous Guthrie Cottage, in a quiet location on the beach-front with the waves almost lapping at your door. It's beautiful, immaculate and very tastefully appointed with your comfort in mind. Free Unlimited WiFi and Netflix. 2 quiet bedrooms with queen sized beds. The lounge has a sofa bed, so the cottage can accommodate 6. Sea views from main bedroom, lounge and dining. Gas central heating.

The cottage is in a quiet residential area and is not suitable for parties. Please restrict outside noise to 9pm in consideration of the neighbours.

The kitchen is well equipped for longer stays, 4 hob, dishwasher and coffee machine or choose one of the local restaurants or cafes to dine at.

Bathroom features shower over the bath, vanity and toilet, heated towel rail for warm towels. Infinity hot water system. Shampoo and conditioner and body wash are included.

Linen is provided. Along with kitchen basics.

There is lots to do - relax in the cottage, enjoy the outdoors, walk in the bush or cycle around the coast. Swim out to the raft which is moored directly in front of the cottage in the summer time. Sip champagne in the outside two, as you look out across the Harbour to the flickering lights of Wellington City. Sit in the front garden or on the sea-wall and watch the Inter-islander ferries go by - if you are lucky you might see some Orcas which are regularly seen each year. Stroll down the beach to the village shops, cafes and restaurants.

The cottage is ideal as a romantic retreat or for a relaxing family holiday or a quick get away from the city.

Guthrie Cottage is a 25 minute drive or ferry ride from Wellington, and a base to explore the lower North Island. Catch the ferry to Picton and visit the South Island.

With the safe swimming beach at your doorstep, the bush at your backyard and stunning sunsets, Guthrie Cottage is the perfect place to stay .

Great location, gorgeous cottage!
We were visiting family in Eastbourne but just needed a place to stay that was independent and Guthrie Cottage was perfect. Unfortunately too cold to use the outdoor bath, which was a shame. It was one of the coldest weeks in Wellington this year but our welcome home was warm.
