Seacliff House | Seacliff cottage - in a beautiful historic reserve

1 Bedroom House in Seacliff, Karitane

The cottage is very comfortable and warm, normally used for our overseas guests, and sleeps 5.
Two night minimum stay.
The cottage has a double bed and bunks, and also a small single bed. The sleeping area is essentially one large bedroom, with an alcove where the bunkbeds are.
(This means the house can sleep five: in a double bed, a single bed and two bunk beds.) There is also a cot in the bedroom.
This property is set within the historic Truby King reserve, site of the old Seacliff asylum. It is an extraordinary woodland and it is locally known as "the enchanted forest". There are many easy walks in the reserve.
If you walk five minutes up the hill you get spectacular views of Otago peninsula and Karitane. It is five minutes drive to both Karitane and Warrington beaches, which are safe for swimming and surfing. At Karitane there is a fine walk round the peninsula and the cheese factory is nearby.
There is a woodburner in the living room, and firewood is supplied.
It is an easy, scenic 25 minute drive to Dunedin.
PLEASE NOTE: Though some maps and GPS systems show that the Seacliff end of Russell Road is accessible from Highway 1, it is not. When coming to our cottage, you must travel to Seacliff via Karitane or Warrington, and along Coast Road.
The cottage is one of two well separated houses on the property. We like to leave our guests alone for their stay, but please wear a mask and knock on our door if there are any issues.
Special conditions:
Smoking allowed outside only. Bench provided!
NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to:
Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave.
Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/pillowslips). Dishtowels are supplied.
