I would highly recommend this place to stay. It is even nicer than photos show and very thoughtfully renovated to a high standard. The hosts were awesome to deal with and we loved the recommendation of cafe to visit (3rd place cafe a must to visit). We had most relaxing time away and enjoyed the fireplace, and bath. The cottage stands beside another house which was empty during our stay so it was very quiet and private. We had privilege of caring for the resident cat during our stay which made our holiday that much more enjoyable. I would definitely stay again next time in Rotorua
