We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! Mark was an excellent host...great communication and was happy to lose his driveway for three days so my parents could park their motorhome off the road. We were delighted to receive fresh coffee beans and delicious home-made bread each morning...such a nice touch and quickly devoured by the four adults. The house is spacious and comfortable and well set up for biking and baby life with high chair, toys and lots of rooms to explore. It's is an ideal base for exploring Rotorua...right next to the Redwood forest with walks and mtb trails and only 8 mins drive from the main bike park hub. There's a desk space which I used for working in the evening and a lovely outside sunny seating area (perfect for morning coffee and drying all the biking clothes)! Our toddler loved the garden and hunting down pears and apples from the trees. We would thoroughly recommend staying here and hope to return ourselves someday!
