Helen is a friendly host and met us on arrival day. The house is nice - as good as the advent. The large downstairs space is enough for a small group (we had 8). Very clean and well maintained. The kitchen catered to a group eating breakfasts and dinners. The space is warm - heat pump and some electric blankets work well in winter. The location is ideal for either tourists in Rotorua or people casually passing by - easy to find off a main road. We were very happy overall and would certainly recommend Helen's place to others. Many thanks. Jakub and the SPC distance running team.
