I cannot imagine a better house for holidaying in the magnigicentTaupo region. The house is so magical that we had a hard time leaving it each time we went out to explore the area. And we were always super excited to arrive back home after an outing. We were very lucky with the weather, but honestly if you were stuck indoors with bad weather you would still have an amazing stay here. If you do plan on staying here - please look after the place so that it remains just as beautiful for our return visit :)
