Ruru Retreat is a hidden gem, the hosts are lovely and go above and beyond. The room is spotless, and had everything we needed and more. The kitchen is well equipped, and the bathroom had nice little extra touches like spare toothbrush, razor and shaving cream etc.
A perfect couples get away. There is a Tui feeder hanging on the balcony and it brought Tuis right to the door. Was peaceful to watch.
We will definitely be booking this again when we go to New Plymouth!
