Raglan Rural Retreats - Range View Cottage

TiaRating, 5 stars6 months ago

The Range View Cottage was a perfect tranquil retreat. The view from the outdoor seating area, and large windows from inside, was so green and beautiful. It was lovely to arrive to a spotless yet comfortable cottage, and the welcome loaf of bread and bottle of wine was an added bonus. Everything you could need is provided. Personally, it was nice to be a little away from the surf and tourist vibes of Raglan (one does need a car though if they plan to get into Raglan or to hit the beach and surf). Overall I would recommend the Range View Cottage to anyone!

Private room in Raglan

Private room, near surf, 5 mins drive to town

AleiaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

I had the most beautiful stay with Pauline and Bruce this past week. Their care and attention to detail made me feel so welcome and at ease from the moment I arrived. The space was peaceful, spotless, and had everything I needed — but what truly stood out was the exceptional manaakitanga. They went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and supported throughout my stay. I can’t recommend their place highly enough — it’s more than just accommodation, it’s an experience of heartfelt hospitality. Ngā mihi nui!

BriarRating, 5 stars14 months ago

Absolutely beautiful sea view spot for my sisters and me to gather! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the location. The feel of the home was so relaxing—the perfect escape we were looking for. A special mention must go to the top-quality linens on the beds, which added an extra touch of comfort and luxury. We couldn't have asked for a better getaway. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience!
