Every aspect of our stay at Kate's place was above expectations. House was sparkling clean, tidy and felt like a home. We were four adults and two kids and had lot of space for ourselves. BBQ was a bonus. Very close to Turoa Ski Field which makes this an ideal place for ski+snow lovers. Kate's instructions were very clear and her responses to messages were also prompt. We would definitely visit again when we visit Mt. Ruapehu.
