This place is AMAZING. Has a warm flash marae style feel to it ie. you will only need to bring your clothes, as literally everything you might need is provided for. Fireplace is amazing with plenty of wood, mountains of blankets, kitchen is fully stocked with every utensil you can think of (even coffee machine and plunger!), shower pressure fab, no shortage of space for kids to run around...i could go on. Location wise we were visiting Whakapapa over a few days which made it super convenient as the house is directly across the road from the National Park park and ride/shuttle pick up so no need to drive anywhere. Even better than the house itself were the hosts, they were super responsive to my numerous queries and flexible when we had unexpected visitors turn up to stay due to road closures in the area, they even waited for us to arrive (when it was snowing out and had to drive back to wanaganui) and had the fire on, very warm and inviting hosts! Highly recommended. We will be back next year for sure!
