Perfect spot

We stayed here for a rowing regatta. This is such an awesome cottage the hosts are super friendly and organised. The beds were so comfortable! Only thing missing was wifi but we worked our way around it (host even offered for me to drop over and use theirs which was very lovely). Thanks so much :)

See below

I am sure we must have been nearly the 2nd or 3rd occupant (I would assume once the owner has these drawbacks below pointed out it will be a different matter) beds were perfect the house inside was very clean The oven was really dirty and greasy the microwave was dangerously high up and dirty there were no bedside tables the 4 wine glasses were unmatched small op shop ones by the look of them There were no flat serving dishes. There was no small vegetable knife or bread knife or corkscrew. there were only 2 bar stools and with no kitchen table. meant we couldn't sit down together (there were 4 outdoor chairs that were not high enough) There were no bedside lamps or lounge reading lamps The chair in the lounge had the springs sticking into me. The wire from the TV were dangling on the floor.

A tranquil getaway

Just loved our stay beside beautiful Lake Karapiro. Just loved listening to the birds and looking out at the Kiwifruit vines. The hosts were relaxed and easy to deal with. Would love to come and stay again.
