Quality stay.

Outstanding service from the moment we arrived till we left. We were greeted with an afternoon tea and had a lovely continental and cooked breakfast the next morning. Great room with all the amenities you need except a kitchen.

Very nice Bnb

Beautiful scenic, historic property, excellent service.and very good location. Breakfast was outstanding. The 6 day cancellation window was a problem. In spite of the flooding we weren’t able to cancel and had to work around the scheduling. Only property we had booked that we had a problem with. Otherwise a great stay….

Lovely property with amazing views

We only had a 1 night stay as it was supposed to be a staging post to travelling further north on the peninsula to explore the area. However cyclone Gabrielle had other plans for us, so Cotswold Cottage and Thames was as far as we got. Nevertheless we had a very pleasant stay. Garth and Adrienne were great hosts and we particularly enjoyed the home made scones and tea on our arrival served in the guest lounge with amazing views all round. It is a beautiful property and the room was tastefully decorated and extremely clean. The bed was huge and very comfortable. Unfortunately the weather prevented us from taking advantage of sitting in the lovely garden and enjoying the views of the river and surrounding properties or using the spa pool but I would imagine it would be wonderful on a sunny day. We would highly recommend a stay in this gorgeous home.

Excellent B&B à Thames. Une jolie chambre avec sa salle de bains privative, une vue splendide sur la vallée, l'accueil et les explications d'Adrienne et de Garth est extrêmement sympathique et agréable, un grand merci à eux ! Le petit-déjeuner est cuisiné tout les matins par nos hôtes, un vrai moment de convivialité. Le lieu est géographiquement très bien placé pour visiter la péninsule de Coromandel et Thames propose plusieurs options de restauration pour le soir. En bref, chaude recommandation de notre part !

Great for Couples

We stayed at Cotswold Cottage 2 nights as a hub for driving around the Coromandel Peninsula and, for that purpose, the location was great. The house is situated at the top of a knoll so the view is really nice. The street below isn't busy and borders a creek so it's not only quiet but actually pleasant to go for a walk along as we did one evening. There are three units attached to the back of the house that are rented out. Each room has its own entrance out onto a shared deck that connects to the sitting room of the main house which enters into the dinning area where breakfast is served. Breakfast consisted of two courses: (1) self served granola, yogurt, fruit, toast, and juices; and (2) a cooked meal of which they gave two options. The tables were well set and they also prepared fresh coffee upon your arrival. After breakfast the hosts will get out a map of the area and walk you through things to do that day. They are very friendly and welcoming. This was our first time staying at a bed and breakfast and the experience was so nice that we plan to stay at more in the future.
