We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Lorna & Aaron's flat. The flat was exactly as described - clean and comfortable, absolutely adequate for our needs and well supplied with self catering equipment.
We were handy to the Blue Lake area - we spent most of the weekend out exploring Rotorua and at the model aircraft club. The flat is easily accessible to town (by car), with good walking trails in the Redwoods, and a few good restaurants all in walking distance.
Our grandchildren thoroughly enjoyed the freedom to play in the garden too and appreciated the toys thoughtfully provided. Both Lorna and Aaron were good communicators. Lorna was away, so we didn't get to meet her, Aaron was a considerate host and after initial communication left us to enjoy our stay uninterrupted.
As an aside: If you're an ice-cream lover, try Lady Jane's in Eat Streat (Tutanekai Street) - fabulous Danish Waffle cones or Mio Gelato (part of Fancy Meow Cat cafe - on Arawa Street) which had some very different flavours... Butter Chicken, Durian fruit or Taro anyone? I preferred their Tiramisu, Candy Floss and Baileys icecreams.
We would highly recommend staying here.
