We only stayed one night at Taupo’s treat but would have happily extended our stay if we could. Dierdrei really went above and beyond, providing freshly baked bread, butter, jam and ingredients for a delicious breakfast. She called in to say hi and was absolutely lovely and full of helpful advice on local restaurants, attractions etc. The place itself is really cosy and clean with all facilities you could need (including a washing machine, which we were very grateful for!) The chickens that wander through the garden were a real delight and were also very friendly. The town of Taupo is close and could be walked easily (though we were last and drove) All in all, a great experience.
