Russell Cottages - Russell Holiday Home

Step into ultimate holiday bliss and relaxation. Welcome to Russell Cottages!

Located in the heart of the historic town of Russell and spread across two levels, this holiday cottage offers all the must haves for a quintessential Kiwi getaway all wrapped up in a perfect blend of contemporary design and classic features.

Feel right at home in the spacious open-plan living and dining area which allows you to unwind from your usual daily hustle and bustle. Sit back and enjoy your favourite shows on the Smart TV, stay connected on the WiFi, and for year-round comfort switch on the heat pump.

Enjoy the bright and modern kitchen, equipped with all the essentials you need to cook up all your holiday favourites. Flow seamlessly onto the deck for the perfect setting for those idyllic summer evenings watching the kids play on the lush green lawn.

Three bedrooms here at Russell Cottages comfortably sleep up to six guests, with two full bathrooms plus an additional ground floor toilet providing ample conveniences for your stay.

Resort-style living could not get much better, with shared recreation facilities on offer throughout your stay. Take a plunge in the swimming or spa pool, cook up a storm on the BBQ, and let the kids make the most of the playground.

Russell has so much to offer, and being just a four-minute walk from the waterfront you'll find yourself spoilt for choice when it comes to dining options, including the popular Duke of Marlborough and Hones Garden.

Fancy a day trip? Take a boat trip out to explore The Hole in a Rock, making sure to keep your eyes peeled for the local dolphin pod on the way!

For your next escape to the beautiful Bay of Islands, Russell Cottages is ready for you!
Please note that the swimming pool, spa pool, playground and BBQ area are all shared facilities.

As the deck at this property does not have a barrier and has a small drop on to grass, all guests should take care when using this area due to the risk of falls.

The pictured fireplace is not available for guest use.
