The cabin has one main room (this doubles as the lounge), which can sleep 2 comfortably with a double bed and a futon which folds down into a king single for the 3rd person. This is great if you are family or close friends as you will all be in the same room! But is does limit the space somewhat. Please also let us know if you are not a couple and wish the futon to be made up. The bathroom and kitchen are all accessed via the covered deck. We have a BBQ, and an outdoor bath with hot and cold running water as well as a fire pit (firewood supplied). There are several indoor and outdoor games to keep you and your children occupied.
The cabin has a gas heater, hob and hot water. The lights and power are supplied by solar battery, so we are off the grid. There is a back up generator to top up the batteries, mainly used in the winter when there are lower sunshine hours.
There is no Wifi but a good phone signal.
Special conditions:
Smoking outside only. Small children welcome, but potential guests must realise that the cabin is very close to the Wanganui River. Cabin is 500m from the main road, easily accessible with 2WD vehicles via a flat metalled farm track. NO PETS.
Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$25.00 per stay); Linen (included);

• Inside the cottage is as described, recently painted, new Kitchen and Bathroom, a new Heat pump with a great Shower. The cottage also has comfortable Queen beds, a smart TV with Netflix, Wifi and Stereo. Supplied are plenty of board games and books and magazines for inside days.
•The cottage has lots of heating for winter warmth we've recently upgraded this so each bedroom has a new heater. The lounge has a new Heatpump and the Kitchen Dining room has one of the Tevo heaters for instant heat.
Riverlea Cottage is a comfortable 100-year-old Villa with a cosy home-like feeling. The lounge suites are comfy and overall, it's a great place to come and relax for a weekend or longer.
The only downsides are the house has pale oatmeal-coloured carpets and despite regular carpet cleaning some marks have not quite come out. See Carpet photos in the portfolio. From the photos it is very difficult to see any issue. This does not bother most people but if you are a stickler for perfection then another property might suit you. The other is the bathroom is recently renovated but is compact. This also contains a washing machine in the Laundry Cupboard. Saying that the shower water pressure is excellent and being gas heated the hot water never runs out.
Outside,
The cottage has nice lines and is as you can see in the photos. The Garden is cottage-like, unpretentious, and tidy with fresh flowers in the garden in the Spring-Summer months and early Autumn. At the rear of the house is a functional parking area and next to the back door is a basic well-used outdoor seating area with an outdoor table. There is enough space to park two or three cars and more space along the driveway. We once had a car club park eight cars off-street.
Location
The Cottage is about a 5-minute drive to the Restaurants and Cafes on the Main Street which is about 2km away. The Supermarket is 2.5 km away and closes at 8 pm. The house is located next to a public farm-like reserve and is 150m from the Wanganui River. You can just walk across the paddocks to get to the river and catch trout from the banks. There is a fishing rod supplied with the house. Area: Most of the houses in the area are Taumarunui middle-income 3 and 4-bedroom 1920s bungalows and for the most part are well kept. Except for the eccentric retired Engineer on the Corner is a hoarder - Nice people though.. You can see most people take a degree of pride in their properties.
Neighbours
Looking out from the front of the house there is an attractive view of the poplar trees, willows, rolling hills, and pasture land beyond them. There is a largely empty section on one side of us as their house was destroyed by fire 5 years ago. Behind us and on the other side of us are families with young children. The neighbor on the other side of us is a renter. They are a family with Children who are reasonably quiet bar a bit of play on the trampoline. You can hear them playing outside in the evenings in Summer. overall the neighbours are quiet as a rule.
Quiet
A really big advantage of the location is that the house is protected from train noise by an embankment 50m behind the house which comes through Taumarunui on a regular basis at night. This can keep you awake at night if you are not used to the noise. Many hotels and some BNBs in Taumarunui are exposed to this train noise so that's something to be aware of. If you're looking for a bit of country 5 minutes from eateries and shops this is it. Further out, there aren't any diaries close by if you need something.
- " Having the hosts near was really helpful. the house is organised well for a group. Well appointed. Art was interesting. I would recommend this as a place to stay." - "The hosts were near and helpful. the house is well organised for a group and we enjoyed our stay there." - "great location, super comfortable, enjoyed our stay" - "Nice and tidy." - "Super good thanks" - "Cosy affordable bach with all the comforts of home."

- "Took me back in time. Was a fantastic reminder of days gone by. I would recommend to anybody looking for a great house with all amenities and also for those looking for a bit of a difference from your normal." - "The property was spectacular and delivered exactly what we had expected and more. That is on the owner. When I could break through the AI chatbot that VRBO provides for feedback the owner was responsive and helpful. When I return to this property I will seek out the owner directly and cut out VRBO. Loved the property and highly recommend it highly."

Other things to note
- SOLAR POWER ENERGY: Because our cabin is off-the-grid, please refrain
from using all electrical appliances at the same time. We also ask that you refrain from using high wattage electrical appliances such as portable heaters, electric cookers, etc. Doing so can overload the electrical system and may result in a loss
of power. If this happens we will provide a torch for lights but rarely will.
- FREE PARKING: Free on-site parking is available in front of the home. The
driveway is shared with a working farm at the back of the property.
