If you are looking for a quiet rural setting and more than a basic motel room then Berry View Cottage is ideal. We were en route from Whanganui to just south of Whangarei and Berry View Cottage is very conveniently located about half way. It would also be a good base from which to explore the area and is short drive into the centre of Te Awamutu. It is very clean and comfortable and we were made to feel very welcome by Liz. We would definitely stay there again and do not hesitate to recommend to others.
