This place is a real gem. It is the perfect spot to unwind and recharge your batteries, go for morning walks by the lake or the local stream and bush. Heinrich and Judy are wonderful hosts who go out of their way to make your stay a memorable one. We loved the little cottage feel of the place, the privacy and the picturesque surroundings. Judy's breakfasts are an event in themselves. Not only are they delicious, hearty and healthy, but Judy will cater for your special dietary needs and preferences. Sitting on the little porch and being serenaded by the native birds during breakfast is an enchanting experience that will be cherished by us. It is such a great way to start the day. The pets, Boy and Honey add a homely feel to the place and the three llamas are loveable characters.
Heinrich is very knowledgeable in the the attractions of the Rotorua region and beyond. Through his advice, we were able to visit the nearby waterfall, the local bush trail and tramp around the Blue Lake and the surrounding regions. It was great to have an 'in house' fountain of knowlegde at your disposal.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Heinrich and Judy's place and recommend it most highly to anyone seeking a quiet and peaceful retreat for their stay. We intend to go back there on a regular basis.
