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.

We had an amazing stay at Michelle and Peter's place! Our family spent two wonderful days there, and despite the not-so-great weather in Taupo, the farm was still incredibly beautiful even on gloomy days. The three little puppies were absolutely adorable and added so much joy to our visit. The apartment was tastefully decorated, and the bedding was extremely comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. We also had the pleasure of visiting Michelle's pottery studio and came home with four lovely cups. A huge thank you to Michelle for the thoughtful gift; it truly made our experience even more special. Overall, it was a delightful getaway, and we can't recommend it highly enough!

    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.
