Charming, central 2-bedroom cottage in superb Hamilton East near gardens & cafes

Welcome to The Orange Cottage – Your Cozy Retreat in Hamilton East!

Make yourself at home in our charming 2-bedroom Orange Cottage, a warm and welcoming space in the heart of Hamilton East. Located just across the road from the fabulous Hayes Common café (perfect for your morning coffee!), and with bus stops nearby to take you to the University, Hamilton Gardens, and the CBD, you’re in the perfect spot to explore the best of the city.

Take a leisurely stroll along the beautiful river walk right outside the cottage—head south and you’ll reach the award-winning Hamilton Gardens, or wander north to discover the Hamilton East Village and Made Market. Keep going, and the scenic path will lead you right into Hamilton Central!

A Cozy & Comfortable Stay
Inside, you'll find a queen bed and a king single bed, which can be expanded into a full king-size bed upon request. Both beds are topped with crisp white sheets and luxurious bedding, ensuring a restful night's sleep.

The cottage is designed to be your home away from home—ideal for couples, small families, or solo travellers. Whether you're staying for a quick getaway or an extended trip, we’ve got everything you need to relax and unwind.

- Stay comfortable year-round: with full insulation, air conditioning/heat pump, plus portable heaters and fans in the bedrooms.
- Unlimited fast WiFi and a flat-screen Freeview TV for your entertainment.
- A fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook, including basic supplies like teas, milk, Hummingbird coffee, and a coffee machine.
- A washing machine for your convenience.
- A modern bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer.

A Touch of Art & Nature
The Orange Cottage features original artwork by New Zealand and Melbourne artists, as well as beautiful Indian hand-embroidered wall hangings. The living room is a cozy spot to relax, with a comfortable couch, dining table, and chairs, all framed by stunning views of tall trees and native bush across the river.

Step outside onto the spacious deck, which overlooks the park, Hayes Common cafe and the mighty Waikato River—the perfect place to sip your morning coffee or unwind with a glass of wine in the evening.

Easy Parking & Access
You'll have plenty of free onsite parking, with easy access from the driveway—choose to enter via the front door or through the deck entrance.

We’d love to host you at The Orange Cottage—come and experience a cozy, relaxing stay in one of Hamilton’s most beautiful locations!
