We, family with two adult children, arrived late from Wellington which was no problem. Access was easy and uncomplicated. The rooms are tastefully and lovingly decorated, with lots of little extras, which makes one feel at home and welcome. Due to the weather, we couldn't do our planned Tongariro Crossing or Tama Lakes walk, but we were given great alternatives which we also totally enjoyed. The quiet, secluded location, the billard table, the hot pool, the heaters and outside clothesline to dry some washing and the breakfast provisions are a luxury and a great bonus. We had a great stay which was much too short.
