Loved that we were left to our own and were able to enjoy the peace and quiet, my kids loved the little park you have and really enjoyed feeding the pigs.

Go feed the lambs, play tennis, do your laundry, use the cleanest and most spacious kitchen to bake pizza and bread (no joke, we did that as they have everything, even cheese knives!). Don’t just stay for the caves, stay a little longer as it’s such a lovely, calming place!

Stayed in the train and it was more spacious than original thought. LOVED the view from the windows. Kids loved the countryside. Beds were comfortable and the aircon was a plus. Super close to the caves.

I loved my stay at this gorgeous, well maintained farm. As you drive in you can feel the love for detail that went into every corner. The older gentlemen gave me a hearty welcome. The room and the bed was comfy. (in particular the super cozy woolen blankets made we wanna stay in bed the morning). Communal shower&toilet was in camping style but clean. Wifi worked like a charme. The cabins don't have electricity, so lighting ain't the greatest, and the one charging point in the communal area is switched off after 10 pm. So I struggled a bit with working on my laptop and keeping my phone charged. But that's a minor thing. Here you really just want to sit on the little porches and sip a cold beer to wind down while watching sheep, ducks and stunning sunsets. ♥️

We stayed at Crinkly Cottage for one night after visiting the Glowworm Caves and absolutely loved our stay! The cottage is super cozy and had everything we could have wished for - including a lovely breakfast with wonderful homemade products :) Paula and everyone else were lovely and made us feel so welcome. We also loved meeting all the animals and spent a whole afternoon on the veranda, relaxing in the sun and watching the cows.

The room was very clean and neat with comfortable beds, good WIFI and smart tv with Netflix, Youtube and more. Bathroom and other amenities were wonderful and I’d give 10/10 for the cleanliness. Nice garden/scenery and the host was very nice and friendly.

    Fun themed room. We expected it to be dated but the room was spacious inside and clean. Heating was on when we arrived, which was a lovely touch. Enough towels for all of us. Very easy to be comfortable. Location is perfect for Glow Worm cave. Convenience store and pub close by for meals (Convenience store closes earlier than advertised - so get supplies early) Go to town before you check in if you need food supplies, as it's quite a long windy drive to motel

    This place certainly lives up to its name 'the view' (Te Tiro). The cottage we stayed in was cosy and comfortable for our family but we especially enjoyed exploring some of the walks on the farm and sneaking the kids out at night to see the glow worms (a two minute walk from our cottage). The hosts were friendly and welcoming, and my family all agreed that this was our favorite accommodation in New Zealand yet! I can't recommend this place enough!

    The Waitomo Caves Guest Lodge exceeded expectations. Lynn and Richy were so sweet and welcoming, we felt as if we were with family. The Rukari Bushwalk was fantastic and nearby and the Caves in general are well worth the trip. The room was clean and exactly as described. Our only regret is not spending another night at the village.
