2 Bedroom Cottage in Blenheim, Rapaura

RIVERBANK COTTAGE AWAITS YOU.
Riverbank cottage was originally the lean-to off the main homestead. In 2002 we moved it across the garden rebuilt it and lived there happily while the homestead was renovated. The cottage faces northeast overlooking our vineyard towards the Richmond ranges. It is within a stones throw of the Wairau River.
The space
Guests are welcome to a game of tennis on the court right in front of the cottage and to walk over to the river through the property. Guests can also dine both inside or out with an outside table and chairs set up on the veranda.
Other things to note
The toilet is located through the back door to the cottage under the porch. The way you get to it is undercover but does require you to step outside the back porch to get to it.
Should you wish to bring your pets to stay please note they are welcome but are not allowed to sleep inside the cottage at night. This is to keep the cottage in such a condition for future guests.
We also have a cat and a speagle dog called Jack who has free rein of the place. He is great with other dogs but just something to note if your planning on bringing your pet who may not be friendly towards ours.
Thank you.

Summary: The cottage is lovely, especially the exterior with views and flowers surrounding it. The interior is a bit odd with shower in one room, sink in another and the WC is actually accessed from the exterior so you have to go outside to enter it. Otherwise, the cottage is lovely and well equipped. The sunrise views are amazing and it is quiet and calm.
