About this property

Willowmere Cottage - Willowmere Cottage | Lakefront Kiwi Bach

Absolute lakefront in the quintessential Bach, situated on the Western shores of Lake Rotorua approximately 8kms from Rotorua City. There is plenty of off-road secure parking, and plenty of space for children to play. A safe sandy beach, kayaks and a dinghy make this an ideal holiday retreat. The cottage is older and basic. It's all about location here, so if 5 star accommodation is what you are after this may not suit.

Great stay in a traditional Bach
Perfect Location! Quiet, clean and enjoyed the view. Was able to get into activities easily and yet, be away from it all to enjoy the view!

Lake house
Enjoyed our stay, but property really could do with more updating, very very dated. We could see some things have been improved recently, but the top oven did not work for example and crockery could be replaced, I don't like cracked and stained cups. When we first entered there was a very musty smell, maybe an air purifier might help. There was a lot of cobwebs outside. Inside the property was clean, the view lovely and the bird life enjoyed. I still would stay here again.

Cosy Getaway
This was a lovely weekend away, a beautiful view of the lake. Especially worth waking up to enjoy the sunrise. Very clean, had everything we needed. Water pressure average, a struggle with my long thick hair but my family members with short hair found it fine. Loved that they provided many heaters as it did get cold. They had them in all the bedrooms and was very happy with the one in the lounge. The fireplace was lovely, added to the atmosphere. Good location. Overall, it was lovely, charming and would love to come back.

Great spot
Great spot and well priced for the quality but we struggled to stay warm. Kitchen and dining area is cold and had trouble keeping the fire hot enough with damp wood. More blankets are needed. Only 1 role of toilet paper provided. A little more cleaning of windows and frames would be nice too.
