The home sits on a hill with a view that looks toward Tongariro. I was told on a clear day you can see the volcano. The Browns are so sweet, and hospitable, and full of information about New Zealand and the Whangnui area. We took their advice and visited several fun attractions in the area before heading to Wellington. It is a very beautiful area with many interesting things to do and see. Brown's is a fantastic place to stay if you're planning to visit. And the breakfast is delicious too. We will be back, soon I hope! ##### Andrea Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara Mar 1, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A great find!

The suite was bright and cheerful, well appointed, immaculately clean, and with a view out to a beautiful garden. The next morning Jenny brought us a delicious breakfast, and afterward gave us a tour of the property, with bird watching!
