We had a group of 9 people and this place was soooo perfect. The place is conveniently located with a lovely view of Mt Ruapehu. It is a newly built house too, so well insulated and very clean. The fireplace kept us warm in the evenings while playing board games, cooking meals and watching movies - there were also outside heaters by the BBQ on the deck, which was a bonus. Everyone was happy and we will definitely come back to stay!
