Cottage vacation rentals in Rangitikei District

our second year staying for the month of January while visiting family. Ideal.

We had a great few days staying at Michael’s. Situated in a good location in between the main town and station end. Easy access to riding and running tracks. The cottage was cosy and relaxing on a cooler autumn evening and had everything you needed to feel at home. We enjoyed the spa bath which had great night sky viewing on a clear evening.

Del's cottage was cute, cozy and warm. Just off the highway and easy enough to find. It was the perfect place to relax by the ready made fire after a long day on the road. The kids enjoyed the board games too. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay at Michelle and Stu's cottage on their beautiful, expansive farm. Stu took us on an amazing 1.5-hour ATV tour around the property, showcasing the stunning surroundings. The environment is truly breathtaking. The cottage itself is great, with everything you need. The pool is a lot of fun, and the spa/hot tub by the house is a fantastic addition that we thoroughly enjoyed. Michelle was very hospitable, bringing us fresh eggs and having a lovely chat with us, which made us feel very welcome. It's worth noting that the cottage is quite old and off-the-grid in terms of TV and internet, so don't expect a modern apartment with all the latest amenities. However, it's a perfect place to truly get away from it all and enjoy some peace and tranquility. Overall, it's a beautiful place to escape and unwind, and we highly recommend it for anyone looking to disconnect and enjoy nature.

We had a lovely stay at Danni and Rod's place. The cottage is super cute and is in a great location, near the old town and in walking distance to some beautiful trails. Kids loved having the big backyard to explore! Thanks for a great stay 😊

Lovely family, Gina and Scott are great hosts. The place was very homely and relaxing. Perfect place to stop overnight and recharge.

Aroha Cottage was such a gem of a place. We had such a wonderful stay. Very clean, responsive hosts and location was great. The fire was such a bonus. Thanks for having us, we’ll be back.

Really neat to stay on a working sheep farm. The e-bikes to the reservoir and back were such a neat amenity. The walk up to the picnic bench gives a great view. The outdoor bathtub is lovely.

I stayed in Kosbys Cottage for 2 weeks in the New Zealand summer to hike in Tongariro National Park. The cottage was a large space for a solo traveler but provided a nice kitchen with adequate pots, utensils, and so forth for meal preparation. It was a very pleasant space to relax in after a long day of hiking, and rest days were pleasant with a large sofa for lounging and large dining room table for working and eating. Notes for future guests: the New World grocery in Ohakune is large enough to shop when you arrive; the front door was locking automatically every time the door closed so I was very careful to keep the key with me at all times to prevent lockout; read the cottage information on the refrigerator for helpful tips. I used the woodstove early in my trip when the nights were cold and it kept the cottage warm and felt like part of the adventure. Sara was responsive to my questions. I would stay here again for a long time.
