Perfectly positioned to take in stunning, panoramic rural vistas sits the Romantic Black Cottage. This is a romantic retreat for two, also ideal for singles who want an idyllic escape from the hustle and bustle of every day life.
The cottage has been lovingly renovated and designed with your experience in mind, to help you de-stress and reconnect with nature, all while making special memories to cherish. You will love waking up to spectacular sunrise views and enjoy being surrounded by green pastures, animals grazing, and overlooking the serene large private pond
There are many ways to unwind and relax at the character filled cottage with its stunning views out over thousands of acres of picturesque farmland. Soak your cares away in the luxurious two-person outdoor stone bath while stargazing and enjoying a glass of wine. Take time out with the outdoor fire and indulge in kiwi-style s’mores with your complimentary s’mores tray. Have breakfast and a coffee while looking out to the gorgeous countryside and sitting at the custom-made bar leaner when the weather is warm. If the weather is cold, light the indoor fire and be toasty warm and cozy in the cottage while you curl up with a good book and a hot drink, perhaps you’ll want to pull out the selection of board games and have a cozy day in. Later you could snuggle up in bed, maybe with some popcorn, and watch a movie on the projector screen that comes down with the press of a button right at the end of the bed.
The private pond and wooden row boat are simply magical. Take the provided picnic blanket down by the pond and enjoy a private picnic or make your stay truly unforgettable by adventuring out onto the pond in the gorgeous, romantic wooden rowboat.
You’ll find so many little touches that makes the Romantic Black Cottage stand apart to make your stay a truly unique and boutique experience.

You will be amazed by the attention to detail which will make your stay a truly memorable one. From the high end preserves and spreads, to the Nespresso coffee machine, fresh whole organic pasteurised milk from a nearby farm, farm-fresh free-range eggs, gourmet breakfast supplies, divine natural bath bombs, luxurious bubble bath and heavenly bath salts to choose from. The body products are equal to or better than those you would find in 5 star accommodation [all of the former being 100% natural products chosen for their luxuriousness], the complimentary s’mores tray and other touches to add to your experience.
Situated approximately 30 minutes from Havelock North and Hastings, just 3 minutes to the popular Patangata tavern and 15 – 20 minutes to a couple of great beaches. The ideal place to either just spend time relaxing and unwinding, or using it as a base to explore Hawkes Bay and come back to a peaceful retreat to sleep and look forward to waking up to views that will help to restore your soul.

About your host, Marlena
A very warm welcome to you from your hosts, Nick and Marlena.
We bought this country property in 2022 after moving from the suburbs and have been renovating it since.
After moving here and realizing what a special and unique spot the cottage sits on, we knew we had to renovate it and make it somewhere even more special for others to be able come and share our little piece of paradise. Although you're only 30 minutes from Havelock North and Hastings, most guests will take in the idyllic surroundings and just want to relax and unwind. If you can manage to lure yourself away you're 15 minutes or so to a couple of great beaches and 3 minutes to a great pub. It's the ideal country retreat.
We hope you enjoy your stay as much as we have enjoyed preparing this cottage for you. Please contact us for anything to make your stay more enjoyable.
