About this property

Country cottage with stunning rural countryside and lake views

Central Park Cottage is a place to make memories. Your hosts have recently semi-retired from sheep and beef farming and are keen to share their special property with you. We are well travelled and enjoy meeting new people but at the same time will respect your privacy. Our rolling farmland is a haven for native birds with extensive plantings of native plants, which you are free to walk around and enjoy. Within 10 minutes of our property ,you can enjoy Canopy Tours, Agrodome, Mitai Maori Experience, Skyline/Luge and Agroventures to name a few. A little further afield is the stunning Redwood Forest, well known for mountain biking and walking trails. There are so many fantastic places to visit and so much fun to be had that it is not possible to list them all. The Ngongataha Village is a short 5 minute drive. The Village has numerous food outlets and a well supplied supermarket. The Village has a number of other shops to cater for your needs.We also have ample parking for your boat
We are happy to have a baby stay in the cottage and have available for your use a portacot and highchair upon request

Relax in peace

Lovely property, well equipped and a great location. The hosts were awesome and the peaceful setting made for a fantastic getaway. Close enough to town, yet far enough away from town. Great place to stay.

Great home! We were able to relax and enjoy the scenery.

Great home! We were able to relax and enjoy the scenery. I highly recommend this place if you want to relax around Rotorua. Close to everything we wanted to do but also away from the craziness of a downtown area. Lyn made sure we were very welcomed and knew about all the great places to explore around the area.

Birdsong, peace and comfort

Everything about our stay was perfect, from the warm welcome to the excellent facilities and the calming birdsong. A very happy stay in a spotlessly clean bach. All the touristy aspects of Roturua are within easy reach but here you are secluded and peaceful. We'd love to come back.

Pleasing on the eye

Lyn and Julian's lovely cottage has got all the attention to the details you'd wish for. It's got all the amenities one might need and most importantly stunning views of the sunrise early in the morning. We'd be back again!

Incredible!

This might have been our favorite stay during our trip to New Zealand. From the moment we arrived we felt relaxed and at home. The cottage is in a beautiful picturesque setting with easy access to a number of different activities. Lyn was also extremely helpful and gave us a lot of helpful tips and recommendations to allow us to make the most of our time on the North Island. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely be staying here!

Love this Cottage

The owners were wonderful. I liked how they took the time to get to know us in our short stay. I would definitely stay here again. The cottage was lovely. It was nice to stay within distance of the main city, but away in a nice relaxing place.

We loved our stay at the cottage. It was private, clean and very comfortable with lots of light. Lyn is such a friendly and fun person. The view is relaxing and beautiful. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to Rotorua...
