Tree house in Raglan

We enjoyed our stay in Raglan. The house was as pictured and described. The stars at night were amazing. We did drive into town, a little too far for us to walk, and enjoyed several of the restaurants and shops. We also took surf lessons while there.

Very clean, but unfortunate musty smell with lots of spider webs where the washing machine is and the picture towards the ocean is deceiving as the reality is just a glimpse

Gorgeous cosy tree house with sea views

We had a great stay, the house was small but well equipped. Perfect for a family of four plus Granny. The kids loved the board games. Not much space for them to run around but a great house for hide and seek! Clean and tidy and only a 5 minute walk from town or 10 to the wharf.

Was truly amazing. Perfect location, amazing spacious place, kind and generous host! We'll be back

Was enjoyable to plan the trip as Jane was fast in responding to online messages and always willing to help. Especially appreciated her flexibility in terms of letting us to check-in earlier than it was stated. The space is super spacious and comfortable for the groups from 4-7 people while leaving enough freedom so everyone can enjoy it! The view from the house is magical and there is just the right amount of sun! The garage space makes it easy for 2 cars to park, so you don't need to stress about it. We also liked the little touches like - ice cream in the freezer and pop corn as the complimentary gift. Thank you for making our stay in Raglan and hens party so stress-free and wonderful. Girls and I are planning our next trip together already and I can't wait for that! thank you again, Jane!
