Nice spot to spend a few days exploring the region. Lots of space to spread out. Cozy woodburner.

Awesome.

Stayed here with a group of ten to do the Tongariro Crossing. Cool place. Could be cleaner. Fans would be good, bedrooms were stinking hot. Don't expect to sleep in, roosters wake you up at 5.30am. Otherwise awesome, good facilities and we had a great time.

Relaxing home with beautiful views and awesome garden

Perfect for our group of 3 families with children, very close to the town. The kids loved seeing the cows and chickens and goat.

First of all, communication with the owner is very easy. She was very helpful with lots of details and very flexible with some of my requests. This is a nice spacious property with a wonderful view of the mountain, and a nicely isolated farmhouse just at the edge of the town. Easily accessible location with a nice walk to the city center. We had quite a large group with infants, toddlers to small kids' (no teens :) ). Other than a bit steep staircase, the house nicely fit our friends and family team Other than the white goat next door, who was not much happy with our presence :) , our kids really enjoyed the spacious garden, swing, and indeed the chicken. Overall, it was a very pleasant, memorable 3 night's stay. Thanks again for the Owner.

Firstly, we enjoyed our stay. The property had plenty of space and it worked really well for our large group. Loved that about it. We didn't feel it was overly clean and there were cobwebs and spiders in every room. Both of the toilets smelt quite strong of urine but otherwise appeared somewhat clean. The BBQ was so greasy, it caught fire. The hotplate was very dirty and we couldn't use it, which was a disappointment as that was our plan for dinners. Lastly, the property has great character, is quiet and has a stunning view of the mountain. If it was cleaner, it would have been awesome!

This property is a wonderful space. The lounge, dining, balcony and garden flow together and allowed us to be together while some read, others prepared meals and others played volleyball in the garden. Mount Ruapehu made a splendid backdrop to everything we did.. Highly recommended!!
