Simply superb !! From start to finish this hotel / b&b was the highlight of our visit to NZ. A beautiful home with stunning views of the lake in Lake Taupo. The hosts are most gracious. The room was beautiful. Extremely large with a dressing area, balcony with a gorgeous view, jacuzzi bath tub and shower. Breakfast was plentiful and beautifully presented.

The location was 10 minute drive from the centre of Taupo, breakfast was excellent. Angie and Garth were incredibly friendly giving us help with places to eat and all around the local area. Despite the cold weather in New Zealand for summer we had a fire in the lodge to keep us warm.

The facilities were clean and neat. Easy to access with the kitchens and bathroom facilities nearby in short walking distance. Loved that the spa was just nearby for the guests to use them with special discounts.

This stay was one of the best during our trip to NZ. It was beyond what we imagined. The accommodation itself was very spacious and comfortable, but the views were unbelievable! We were lucky to have a clear day and could see snow-capped mountains and watch a magical sunset. Not only that, the hosts were very friendly and welcomed us into their home for a drink and breakfast the next day. We also got to walk around the property and meet some of their farm animals and even saw a deer fawn, which was only a few days old. It was just magical!

Our hosts were absolutely amazing. Their bed and breakfast was absolutely 5 stars and we can’t wait to stay again. Location is great, only 10mins from the centre of town where the majority of local activities are based with plenty of food and drink options. We also had breakfast catered for! The b&b itself is very spacious and comfortable, providing a very intimate setting with no more than a few guests at the one time.
