About this Holiday House

Relax in the warmth of a newly renovated 1-bedroom cottage in the misty clouds and experience the unique and homely semi-rural lifestyle nestled below awesome pine trees with a well-appointed courtyard garden to enjoy the rural outlook. In a private setting on a 6-acre farm the clean, comfortable and friendly hospitality of Height of Dunedin suits a couple or up to 5 guests. Height of Dunedin boasts a sunny, 44 square metre detached guesthouse in a lovely peaceful and tranquil hideaway. Perfect for honeymooners or a small family yet only 6 minutes away is Roslyn with an award-winning restaurant, cafes, day spa, pharmacy, wine bar, artisan shops and supermarket. All this at 350 metres above sea level guarantees some snow falls during winter and beautiful, picturesque surroundings. The family friendly cabin features a spacious living/ dining or second sleeping area with king-single bed. A separate bedroom has a comfortable queen bed along with a pillow menu and extra blankets. Portacot or quality innerspring wool-top toddler mattress (70x130cm) can be added. There is an additional single bed and brand-new double-size memory foam sofa-bed that can be made for you in the lounge. The bathroom, accessed through the bedroom, has an Airstream shower for a refreshing rain-like escape. Packed with complimentary toiletries and extra towels. A selection of teas, coffees, hot chocolate and milk are complementary. There is a small kitchenette suitable for heating up food with a microwave and the sun-drenched secluded patio has a portable Ziegler & Brown gas barbeque - powerful twin burner, high-domed hood with temperature gauge. We encourage guests to view our extensive recommendations that list popular dine-ins to convenient takeaways. In continuing with sourcing and celebrating local ingredients for breakfast (bookable) Height of Dunedin is double-glazed throughout and in its sustainability journey has capitalised solar power energy. Being environmentally efficient towels are encouraged to be reused and bed linens are serviced weekly. You can hand-feed pet animals on a self-guided wander. Awaken to the morning chorus of abundant birdlife: tuis, singing bellbirds, plump wood pigeons, warbling magpies, paradise ducks, hunting hawks, owls and NZ’s rare rosella parrots. A direct 10 minutes drive to The Octagon CBD yet Height of Dunedin captures a retreat of feeling miles away. Especially close to the neighbouring forest walking tracks and the Flagstaff-Pineapple Walk with its stunning views of Dunedin and the Otago Peninsula from the western hill skyline.

Steffen Ekerdt
This place is heaven on earth. From super friendly hosts, to adorable animals around the accomodation to impeccable cleanliness, everything is perfect. We had an absolute amazing stay, the place is very cozy and the beds are super comfy. Our wee boys truly enjoyed themselves, the 3yo at least, I guess the five month old too… The first thing he did in the morning was checking on the goats and yelling a good morning out of the window. Nghaire, Mark and their boys are amazing and the communication with them was very easy. There were toys, pet food, books and pretty much everything else you will need for a couple days away from home. We will definitely recommend this place to all our friends and will try to come back one day.
Response from Owner
Thank you Steffen and family for taking the time to write such a generous review. It was a pleasure to host you and you're more than welcome back. See you next time, Ngaire - Height of Dunedin
George & Chris
Ngaire was an absolutely amazing host, serviced the house daily. Fantastic place and really quiet environment, loved feeding the goats daily. It was nice to have hand written weather reports for the coming days. Will return to stay here when we are back in Dunedin.
Puriri Cottage Owner
This was an excellent place to stay. The one bedroomed house was very clean and orderly, with all sorts of extras thoughtfully left by the owner. The farm around it was fascinating, and our host even left feed for us to give the goats. Well done for providing such lovely accommodation!
