About this house rental

Situated in Martinborough, this lovely house for $108 per night is a great option for your next trip. Less than a ten minute (600m) walk to the Square, Butterfly Cottage is a picture-book late 1800s small house. The cottage is steeped in the history of Martinborough. It was once a hairdresser’s shop, then a residence, located on The Square. It was relocated to Malcolm Street in the early 20th century, when it became a family home for many decades. It’s a cosy, peaceful little two bedroom cottage on a quiet street. The perfect place to come home to after a day exploring everything Martinborough and the Wairarapa region has to offer. Let yourself in using the smart lock. The front bedroom has a queen bed and a beautiful original decorative fireplace. The main bedroom has a big super-king bed and french doors which open out onto a deck with a lovely table and chairs setting - perfect for breakfast, coffee or a glass of Martinborough wine. The kitchen has everything you might need including a great selection of tea and coffee. The bathroom has a claw footed bath so you can soak away the day. The cottage is kept cosy and comfortable by a heat pump/air conditioner. Wifi, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Chrome Cast and a selection of books will keep you entertained *The cottage is very, very old. The floors slope slightly and some of the floorboards are creaky and can be a little uneven A cute little slice of historic Martinborough, just a short walk from the centre of the village

Loved the cute cottage vibes. Beds were very comfortable and big. House was cosy and perfect for an overnight girls getaway place to relax after biking wine tour during the day. Shower was great too. Easy and high tech lock for security was great. Easy walk to the centre of Martinborough, Four Square supermarket and fish n chips shop all very convenient. Communication with host was fab and instructions were spot on 👌 Would highly recommend.

The location was quiet with a ten minute walk into town. The bed linen was lovely, the pot of chocolates, soap all good. The stay was OK but really the property was quite basic in certain areas. The dining table was in an alcove where my husband's head touched the roof. Certainly not a spot for more than two people. The garden had been maintained at the front but nothing more than that. The back was sparse and uninviting. Putting a shower over a bath with high sloping sides, designed before showers were invented, crosses the line between quaint and rustic into plain old uncomfortable. The two shower curtains stick to your body as you try to wash and don't cover the wall behind the taps. This wall (which is behind the bed in the main bedroom) and the floor is looking predictably damp. All up it's OK for two people for a weekend, but needs a bit more TLC.

Great option for a long weekend

This is a beautiful restored wee cottage, for one or two couples, which is within easy walking distance of the square. We had troubles with getting in to start with, due to the heat playing havoc with the lock mechanism, but Belinda was really helpful in helping us get around that. This was the second time we stayed here, and won't be the last. We enjoy the tranquility, and the back yard is great for sitting out in the sun.

Hi, the cottage was clean and comfortable. Everything we needed was supplied. Beds were super comfortable. Only slight problem was very squeaky floorboards in the hallway which would wake anyone trying to sleep. Great check in check out. Lovely quiet neighbourhood.

A lovely and well appointed cottage with all the little things thought of, however, older people may have difficulty accessing a shower which is over a rather narrow bath and no grab handle.

This is a lovely little cottage, and just great for a weekend away. It's a bit pricey for 1 couple, but would be great if you wanted to share with friends. It's very quiet, and a convenient 10 minute walk into the square. Would definitely look at staying again.
