About this property

The Brambles - Cute Semi-Rural Guest House in Greytown

Our property is a 3 acre lifestyle block located on Udy Street, it's arguably one of the prettiest streets in Greytown and a very popular walking route. Access to the Brambles is down a long driveway lined with olive trees and the property is not visible from the road. On the property we have chickens, sheep, alpacas, we also have Peking Ducks free ranging. There will be some fresh farm eggs waiting for you on arrival.

The Brambles got it’s name from the wild Blackberries that run along the side of the cottage on the boundary to Pinehaven Orchard, feel free to pick your own when they’re in season.
There's a walking track at the end of our street that takes you through farmland and down to the river which is a great way to see some of the countryside.

We have a Maremma Italian Sheepdog 'Ricco' and little white fluff ball called 'Nix' (Japanese Spitz) They love to say a very enthusiastic hello to new visitors. We also have a Ragdoll cat 'Felix' and a couple of Kunekune pigs 'Frank & Louis' who also may run up to the fence to say hi

Greytown boasts having the most complete Victorian Main St in NZ. Just over 1 hour drive from Wellington, Greytown has become a Mecca for boutique shopping and has some great restaurants and cafes. We are 15mins from Martinborough with an abundance of wineries and olive groves. The property is a 2min drive or a pleasant 15min walk from the town centre

So if you're looking for a tranquil rural farm experience that's easy walking distance to town then this is the place for you but if you're not an animal or dog lover then it's fair to say that this is not the place for you 😊

We hope to see you soon

Great spot, with great hosts
I loved my weekend at the Brambles. Everything was just so easy. The cottage is the perfect space for solo travellers or a couple. The location is within walking distance to the village, with bikes made available for me to use if I wished. The pictures perfectly show the space and all the lovely animals you will meet. I would definitely stay here again

Peaceful getaway
The Brambles was a peaceful getaway, plenty of space inside and outside, with only a short distance to shops and amenities in Greytown. Lovely to have the farm animals especially Frank and Lious the Kunekune pigs. The hosts Mike and Yvonne were very helpful with sharing local knowledge, nothing was a trouble to them even to the extent of offering the use of their own washing machine. Absolutely nothing at all was a problem to them always interested in what you had been doing for the day. Left you to yourself if that was what you wanted. Great hosts. Thanks for sharing your cottage with us. Wayne.
