We can’t recommend this place highly enough. It is like having your own lake at the bottom of the garden. The reserve next door is large and so still felt private even on the busier weekend days, and completely quiet in the evenings. Very secluded and relaxed compared to Rotorua, and a beautiful drive home after a day of local sightseeing. The house is cosy, comfortable and clean and a perfect getaway. Thanks Murray and Kathy!
