Hotel Cotswold Cottage (Thames, New Zealand)

About Cotswold Cottage

Our home is a charmingly restored 100 year old villa. Set in the hills above a bend in the Kauaeranga River, this is a stunning place to relax and unwind. The property gets all day sun, and has fantastic views from every room. It is ideally situated for your first night’s accommodation in NZ or the last night of your journey, as we are only an hour’s drive from Auckland International Airport. When you arrive at Cotswold, you will be welcomed with afternoon tea. We have information on local restaurants for your evening meal, and if you give us plenty of advance notice we can prepare a meal for you. In summer months you may fancy barbequeing your own food, in which case we can prepare for you a barbecue tray. This will allow you to sit in our lovely garden and enjoy one of our marvellous sunsets. In the morning we offer a full continental buffet, followed by a cooked breakfast. If you need to ease your tired traveller’s or tramper’s body, take a spa in our secluded spa pool in our private rear garden. Extra towels are provided. In our guest lounge we have numerous brochures to help with planning your itinerary.
