Hurunui River Retreat - Flax Cottage
With peaceful rural surroundings, warm interiors, and breathtaking mountain views, this charming cottage offers the perfect escape for couples, small families, or friends seeking a tranquil getaway.
Step into a bright and welcoming open-plan living space, filled with natural light and styled with comfort in mind. Whether you’re curling up with a book, enjoying a shared meal, or simply soaking in the quiet of the countryside, Flax Cottage invites you to slow down and relax.
The well-equipped kitchen provides everything you need for easy holiday dining, and the lounge opens onto a private deck - ideal for morning coffee or evening drinks while you take in the serene landscape. For an added touch of indulgence, the outdoor bath offers a blissful soak under the stars.
