The space
Your Stay
If you have any questions before booking, please ask — we are always happy to help.
We have poured a lot of love into creating this little but comfortable retreat. There are many thoughtful details throughout the space that are difficult to describe, but our goal is for you to arrive, relax, and feel instantly at home.
The house has a warm, homely feel with double glazing, a large heat pump for heating and cooling, and excellent insulation from outside noise. It is a peaceful place to unwind after a day exploring Palmerston North.
Outdoor Bath Experience
One of the highlights of your stay is the private outdoor two-person bath. The bath area can be fully enclosed with tall retractable privacy screens, allowing you to relax in your own private space.
Enjoy a soak with complimentary:
Bubble bath or bath salts
Candlelight and fairy lights
The bath has a detachable shower head, which is convenient for washing your hair or cleaning your dog after an adventure.
Rain or sunshine, the covered outdoor deck allows you to enjoy the space year-round. Retractable screens provide extra shelter and privacy, while the fairy lights and feature lighting across the deck create a beautiful romantic atmosphere in the evenings.

Privacy & Location
Privacy has been a priority. The unit is fully fenced with its own private gate. The fencing between the unit and the main dwelling is up to 2.2m high, creating a private and peaceful environment.
Please note:
There is a very small gap under the gate and beside it. Very small dogs (such as a Chihuahua) may potentially fit through. We have tested with a Maltese-sized dog, which could not fit, but smaller dogs may be able to.
The main dwelling is separately tenanted. Please do not disturb the tenants, as they are not involved with the Airbnb.
We live only a few minutes away and are available if you need anything.
Important Information
The ceiling height is 2.1m. Guests over 2m tall may need to duck in some areas.
The shower is a standard 90cm square shower, however the sliding door opening is narrower at approximately 40cm.
A security camera operates at the entrance/gate and car parking area for security purposes.
Default bed layouts are prepared in advance and may not be able to be changed for same-day check-ins or last-minute bookings.
House Expectations
Please treat our home with care and leave it as you found it.
This is a peaceful retreat:
No parties.
No excessive noise.
Please respect neighbours and keep noise to a reasonable level.
We hope you enjoy your stay, relax in the bath, listen to the rain on the roof, unwind under the fairy lights, and make the most of this unique little escape.
