This place is fantastic and photos do it poor justice. In reality its 100 times better. House is huge. Its sparkling clean inside and that gorgeous fireplace puts it all together. Outside area is big and flat with a huge fire pit for your marshmallow nights. Dorothy is as good a host as can be and always eager to help. You gotta drive a bit to get to Rotorua but the place buys it all back when you get back in the house after your day in town. I don't know who wants to stay in the average built city itself anyways when you have gorgeous farm stays available.
