We spent Christmas 2017 in Kinloch and had a wonderful time with Cath and Bruce. They are very friendly and open, really took care about everything and left us even a Christman present before our departure. The appartment is very nice. It offers a calm atmosphere, is a great place to relax. In three minutes walking distance you arrive at Lake Taupo or on one of the beautiful hiking trails. We enjoyed the separate bedrooms, the nice living room with tv and videos from New Zealand and the dinner outside on the terrace. After many evenings in restaurants, we loved cooking in the kitchen and on the barbecue outside. Since traveling in New Zealand requires many hours driving from A to B by car, we can strongly recommend this beautiful place for a few days of relax. Ivete, Giulia and Jörg, Cologne, Germany
