About this property

Bach Noir - Kuratau Holiday Home

On the western side of Lake Taupo at the edge of Kuratau, Bach Noir sits ready to host your holiday.

This three-bedroom home, plus sleepout, is a great getaway filled with character. Open up the lounge onto the patio in summer to let the breeze in, fire up the BBQ, and enjoy outdoor dining no matter the meal!

If it's a wintery lake escape with the family you're looking forward to, there is plenty to keep everyone entertained and enjoying their holiday on those colder days. Enjoy all the essentials, such as WiFi and a TV with Freeview and a DVD player, as well as a few awesome extras such as a dartboard, board games and a pool table.

While in Kuratau spend your days out on the lake kayaking, swimming, or boating. There is a children's playground on the lakefront of Kuratau, which is a great place for the kids to let loose and burn some energy. Take the time to walk the tracks within the ancient Pureora rainforest, the views are outstanding and it is well worth the trek.

Visit the Kuratau River Wines restaurant for a delicious meal and locally sourced wine. If you are craving adventure, Mt Ruapehu and the Whakapapa ski fields are only a 50-minute drive down the road. Or if you are looking for a retail therapy day, Taupo town centre is an hour drive away.

A restful holiday in Kuratau awaits - come and enjoy Bach Noir!
Additional to the bed configuration listed, there is an extra set of bunks in the sleep out which are suitable for children only.

Please be aware the sleepout at this property is accessed externally and the bathroom is inside the main dwelling.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Beautiful bach

The property was very well maintained, a great kitchen and living area. When the rain cleared we even had lunch on the outdoor table. Loved walking down to the beach for swims. Beautiful bach, thanks so much. I would not use Book a Bach to rent a property again.
