We had a great relaxing stay, met some lovely locals in the bar over the road, great food there too! The beach is also just over the road. The Bach was so lovely, clean and cosy, the bed was very comfy. We will be back!

Great relaxing stay
The property is just a short stroll to the beach. We stayed 7 nights and enjoyed the quiet. Small fridge for that length of stay, and finding spaces to store things a little tricky but didn’t deter from an excellent property.

Anniversary holiday
Lovely little Cottage over the road from Donaldo's Restaurant & Bar in Caters Beach. We had two great weeks staying in Kupe Cottage. The Cottage and area provided almost everything we needed during our 2 week stay. The only thing we would comment about was we had to travel into Westport to do our laundry and Supermarket shopping. Other than that we had a fabulous time and Gay was exceptionally quick with her communication.

Wonderful family holiday
We really enjoyed our stay at Kupe Cottage, Gay was fantastic and really responsive. We found the pullout couch a little uncomfortable, but apart from that had such a great time just 1 minute walk from the beach and loved having a few baths. It was our first holiday with our baby and we found we had everything we needed to make it a wonderful family holiday.

Perfect little home away from home
We stayed in the lovely Kupe Cottage in Carters Beach which had everything you need for a relaxing holiday (or working holiday which is was for us). Clean, Tidy & Perfect! Wander to the beach or cafe/bar and only a short drive into Westport or The Cape & Tauranga Bay. Would love to stay again. Thanks Gay.
