Dierdrei and Richards place was a pleasure to stay in. Very comfortable with a great shower and day bed and all the cooking facilities you could need. The thoughtful touches were apparent as soon as we walked through the door as the heated floor was on and a fresh loaf of bread was waiting for us with extra breakfast food stuffs in the fridge. Dierdrei and Richard were very helpful and approachable hosts with great knowledge of Taupo. Thank you both for providing a great place to stay in Taupo!
