The Vineyard Cottage - Stay Waiheke

This Mediterranean style country cottage is situated on the edge of the vineyard at Cypress Ridge estate with scenic rural views to neighboring Miro/Casita Miro and Obsidian Vineyards. Cypress Ridge is a 22-acre working vineyard and olive grove situated in the Onetangi wine valley.

Guests are welcome to explore the estate… have a walk through the olive grove and vineyard, enjoy the harvest from the large kitchen garden, find fresh eggs in the hen house, tramp through an acre of native bush with several 1000 year old Puriri trees or picnic in the shade of huge Pohutukawas overlooking the neighboring vineyards.

The cottage has 1 bedroom with super king sized bed. There is a full bathroom with rain shower and a small kitchenette with fridge, gas hob and microwave in the open plan living area. Bi—fold doors open the lounge on to the covered patio with BBQ and seating area where guests can dine and enjoy this tranquil and private retreat.

The property shares boundaries with several award winning vineyards and restaurants including Miro/Casita Miro, Stonyridge, Te Motu and Obsidian… making spectacular wine and food a short stroll away. A 10-minute walk down the hill leads to picturesque Onetangi beach with its 2.5 kilometers of white sand and a further 10-minutes down the beach leads to the local pub.

The Vineyard Cottage is situated at the end of a gravel road which is suitable for 4 wheel drive vehicles.

Special conditions:
The 200 meter gravel road leading to the property is suitable for four wheel drive vehicles only. Parking available for two wheel drive vehicles at start of drive.

Special conditions:
A vehicle is available to hire with this property. Please enquire for rates and booking information.

This was a beautiful Bach in a beautiful location. The views were stunning, as was the Bach itself. Being colder, the log fire was an added bonus. It had everything we needed for our stay, with lots of tips and recommendations for discovering Waiheke.

A beautiful cottage close to the vineyards
The Vineyard Cottage is as sunny and charming as it's photos. The views are stunning and the amenities stylishly rustic. This is a perfect location for two and we loved walking through the olive grove to wine tasting. A perfect weekend away.

Gorgeous, tasteful property in a beautiful setting. Kim was super helpful too. Only minor qualm was there being no kindling to light the log burner, plenty of wood though.

All things considered. Top stay
We have stayed here several times in the past and loved it every time. Including our engagement, wedding, and 1yr anniversary. There was bread, butter, milk and wine! Wow! The location is convenient, views and scenery are beautiful and it’s just an amazing romantic and peaceful little cottage. We would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for somewhere memorable, private and exceptional to stay on Waiheke!

we love the cottage due to history there, its very pretty, the aircon is fantastic, the views are second to none, its beautiful, quiet, and a fantastic location. we will stay again. POI: the cottage was clean but we were told there would be a light left on which it wasn't, last time there were beach towels and this time there wasn't, the fridge light went out on the first night, there was only 2 towels for 2 people for 2 days, (last time there was 4 towels so you could wash your hair etc).

Kim meet us and took us through the beautiful cottage, the pictures don't do it justice , its just delightful, with lovely views of the valley, vines and even horses on the hill. Its just about 50 steps away form the divine Casita Miro Winery, which I cant recommend enough, the food is second to none and the service is impeccable. It was just the most relaxing weekend in a beautiful part of NZ

Absolutely fabulous!
Absolutely fabulous! A gorgeous little cottage with beautiful character, clean, fresh and cosy, right amongst the vines with view on the vineyards and flowers in the garden attracting tui feeding at arm length just in front of the window. The fireplace and heat pump heat the place wonderfully for relaxed winter evenings. We were welcomed by an already heated cottage, and fresh bread and beautiful milk in the fridge. What else would you wish for? Will be back in this cottage next Waiheke visit!

Approach to the cottage was a bit odd but once in the location is great. The fittings and furnishings were dated but sound and serviceable and as expected. The private isolation of the unit was a lovely element to the stay.

Tranquil, unique. The cottage was adorable and had everything we needed. Fabulous setting among vines and olives but near to some of the best wineries. You can walk to lovely Onetangi beach and there is a bus service but transport for other excursions is desirable. We will definitely try to book this again.
