Overlooking Thames and featuring beautiful sea views, Grafton Cottage & Chalets offers private chalets. Facilities include an outdoor swimming pool and hot tub.

Situated in a secluded tree-lined setting far from traffic noise, these chalets are ideal for discovering the Coromandel Peninsula's stunning coastline, beautiful beaches, and diverse arts and crafts. Beautiful room and apartment. Felt homey and unique but still very clean and private. Nice host. I wish we stayed here longer.
