Settlers Cottage is a beautiful historic pioneer cottage with original Kauri floors, a coal range and three bedrooms (2 in the upstairs attic), as well as a new modern bathroom. Surrounded by world class wildlife reserves, beaches, walks and with the small village of Portobello 5 minutes drive away, you will find this a lovely peaceful spot. Step back in time and relax in our tranquil cottage garden for a few days. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE TWO OTHER COTTAGE BEDROOMS WITH THE DOUBLE AND THE BEDROOM WITH THE TWO SINGLE BEDS ARE ACCESSED VIA A LOFT LADDER WHICH MAY NOT BE SUITABLE FOR EVERYONE (SEE PHOTO). If you require further information please contact us.
