We had a wonderful stay at Kara's place. The house is beautiful, well equipped and very easy access from main road. Note that you will need a car to get around but it is only a few mins away from Turangi and 40min from Taupo. The bread loaf was a lovely gesture and sorted us out for breakfast. We loved getting back home after a cold rainy day to enjoy the fire place and chill out. Thanks and we wouldn't hesitate to come back!
