Window sills were dusty and mouldy. No individual heaters in room, which was a problem for us as the baby was cold sleeping in his cot. Supermarket few minutes drive from the house was a bonus.

We found it very comfortable with plenty of space for all. The house is very conveniently located for hikes in the area and lovely to come back to the warm fire after being out in the cold and rain. Large garage with plenty of room to park the car and big wood stack. Perfect location for shuttles to Tongariro crossing too which we hope to come back to do one day in better weather conditions. I appreciated all the information supplied on walks and other activities in the local area and maps. There is no outdoor areas or outlooks, it is in a more suburban location than I had imagined but this is fine on cold rainy days if you don't want to be sitting outside anyway. There is a good bar/pub on the corner for a drink, meal, game of pool. Local cafe currently closed though as is Tongariro Chateau to non house guests. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Marcus K.

The kitchen is reasonably well appointed. Negatives: This is an older property, and has not been well maintained. (The pictures don't provide an accurate impression.) The kitchen was not clean at all, and we had to re-wash everything before using it. There is no outside seating or barbecue area. The host also does not have anyone nearby to address issues, so make very sure that the number of beds you need made is clearly specified in your booking. ##### Margot Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mike G.

Host have give us a very good information guideline in the folder. Just one thing that require to remove the rubbish when we leave. This is not very convienent as the rubbish collect centre is not open everyday. So we purchase the paid rubbish bag in four square and get all rubbish packed up and divided. We have to leave this to cleaner to collect and transfer for us. As we have no room on our car, as the collect centre was not open on the day we departure. ##### Christy C.
