What a great place! Ann and Ross are the best hosts, the breakfast was just amazing: home made yoghurt, home made bread and home made apricot jam were just a few of the highlights. Add to this the gorgeous menagerie, which you have unlimited access to during your stay. The accommodation (bungalow) was older style, but spotlessly clean, comfortable and easy to keep warm. Ann also was a fountain of local knowledge, we visited caves, saw glow worms, went on bush walks... We had a blast, enjoyed every moment and we couldn't recommend Waitomo Big Bird highly enough.
