House Rules

We would love all of guests to enjoy their peaceful stay at Raglan Waterfront Cottage. We have a few simple house rules similar to any airbnb, that we would appreciate you follow, such as treating our home like your own.

  • Rubbish: Guests should put their trash & recycling in designated bins in the lean too and be mindful of excessive amounts of trash. Extra Blue rubbish bags can be brought from the local Raglan supermarkets if you do have excessive rubbish.

  • Clean & Tidy: Guests should not leave the cottage in a state that requires excessive or deep cleaning. We would appreciate you left it in the same condition as when you arrived. Our cleaning fee is included in your nightly rate and is only meant to cover the cost of standard cleaning between reservations (laundry, vacuuming, etc). It is not necessary to strip the beds.

  • Damage: Where guests cause damage that is beyond normal wear and tear, we expect guests to inform us the Hosts of the damage as soon as possible and work with us to find a reasonable solution. Guests are expected to pay reasonable requests for reimbursement if they’re responsible for damage, missing items, or unexpected cleaning costs. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions. We understand accidents happen and will always try to be understanding.

  • Quiet Times: 10pm-8am - Guests should respect designated quiet hours and should not disturb the surrounding neighbours with a disruptive level of noise (loud music, shouting, slamming doors, etc).

  • Commercial film and photography: Guests should not participate in film or photography that is intended for commercial use or profit, without documented permission from us, the Host.

No Fur Babies

We have our own lovely labrador Theo, who shares the property. So unfortunately we have a no pet policy. If you have any special circumstances please contact us.

No Extra People

Only the booked & paid for guests may stay overnight.

No Parties

No Smoking or Illegal Drugs

We are a non smoking property. This includes the use of tobacco, cannabis, e-cigarettes, vapes, etc.
