This is definitely well worth the little trek out of the main town.
It was quiet, well maintained, had fantastic furnishings and equipment, and the host was extremely helpful and had many great suggestions.
It was also a break from the intensely sulphuric smell of Rotorua and had super cute farm animals!
Would also suggest driving to 'Tauranga' as a very high priority for one of the nicest towns for food and clothing as per hosts suggestion.
