Our family of 12 were in New Zealand for my daughter's wedding. We needed a place that could accommodate our large group and was centrally located to the various sites we wanted to visit during our stay in Rotorua. We found that with Joss and Wayne's place. It had a large enough living room for us to play games (like Salad Bowl) as well as a kitchen and dining table that were large enough to accommodate us when we cooked meals. The kitchen was well stocked and had all the pots/pans/utensils needed to cook. It was the perfect driving distance to the various activities we had planned (Okere Falls, Hell's Gate, Te Puia) and a fairly easy drive to Hobbiton. It was also helpful that the shower and sinks were separate from the toilet room. It never seemed like there was a problem or a line for the utilities. The washer and dryer worked great, which was put to use after our trip to Okere Falls. Wifi was available throughout the house. With the dogs, the goats and the chickens, there's something for everyone. I highly recommend staying here.
