Really comfortable and warm ,with a beautiful fire. The kids were excited to see a bunny hopping on the lawn.A short walk on a track out the back took us to Tongariro River and we saw fly fisherwomen in waders catching trout, and kayakers paddling past.Very picturesque.The house was very comfortable and spacious, and had everything we needed. We had a good few games of the yahtzee set.Fun!Great communication. Highly recommend.
