The Cottage was the perfect stay after our full day of hiking the Tongariro Alpine Crossing (a quick ~1hr drive away). Ann is such a sweetheart who greeted us upon our arrival and showed us around. The stay has everything you would need and then some - crackers and cheese, tea/coffee, milk, etc. We loved being able to put our feet up on the reclining sofa and watch a movie. I encourage you to stay at The Cottage, you won’t regret and you certainly won’t forget it!
