We really loved our stay. The cottage is so cute, I fell in love with it. It had everything you could possibly need, even measuring cups and spoons if you fancied baking! The breakfast was great - a lovely freshly baked homemade loaf of bread, muesli, yoghurt, milk, juice etc. And of course Deidre and her family are just delightful! We talked to them quite a bit and they're are a really lovely family, very warm and welcoming. Will definitely stay there again if we do another trip to Taupo :)
