This beautiful home is the perfect gateway to explore the Taranaki region, from the Poukai Tarns, to Egmont National Park and the glow worm trails in New Plymouth all about 30 minutes drive away. The house is huge, with views of the city and coast, and a cozy whimsygoth fireplace for the chilly nights. While the weather had a mind of its own during our stay, there was still plenty to explore in the region and we’d love to come back and stay here again.
