This really is the perfect peaceful Kiwi Bach. It feels completely secluded and away from it all, despite being handy to Turangi for shopping. We loved the way the hosts had planted a little bit of bush to create a lovely private BBQ/ picnic spot and a private path down to the lake. It was full of fantails when we were there. Inside, they have just what you need for a rustic holiday and nothing you don't. We were there in winter, and I was pleasantly surprised by how cozy and warm it was with the heat pumps and extra blankets provided. Very good value for money.
