We had a really lovely stay with Dierdrei and Richard and their girls. We were a little later checking in than expected but it wasn't a problem at all. Richard welcomed us, and the kids instantly melted into being best of friends. The accommodation was small but perfect for our one night stop over in Taupo before heading on to Hawkes Bay. Dierdrei and Richard made us and our children feel completely at home and welcomed us like part of the family. There was a fresh baked loaf of bread for us, and milk, fresh orange juice, homemade jam, granola, yoghurt and sliced fruit in the kitchen for our breakfast. The children were able to roam freely and join in with the family and meet the chickens and eat all the fruits growing in the garden giving us 5 minutes to ourselves. Thank you! We had a really lovely time :)
