Lakeside Escape - Lake Tarawera Holiday Home

Check out this amazing set-up for your next Lake Tarawera holiday - it's all in the name - Lakeside Escape!

Spend your holiday just moments from the water's edge, in this 4-bedroom 2-bathroom holiday home with everything you might need, want and more, including WiFi and a hot tub.

Lakeside Escape offers comfortable open-plan living, with easy outdoor flow onto the sundeck. Fire up the pizza oven and outdoor heater and dine alfresco with the spectacular views out over the lake. For indoor days, stay toasty by the fire and admire the scenery from the comfort of the couch.

With both air hockey and table tennis, as well as the extensive DVD library and children's games, you and your group will be covered when the weather doesn't lend itself to exploring the lake. And to get your days started off right, the modern kitchen boasts a Nespresso machine.

The perfect setting for two families, sleeping up to 9 guests. There is also a port-a-cot on-site, making this an excellent family option. The front section of the house is fully-fenced, so if you need a safe space for the young ones to run around or even if the family pet is joining in the holiday fun, this is the ideal for them to roam about.

When you feel like exploring, you can enjoy easy access to a safe swimming beach. Tempt a trophy trout or paddle the sea kayaks. Everything you need for a low key or adventure-filled getaway is on hand at this family-friendly holiday home. Or you're less than a 20-minute drive into Rotorua.

Relax and unwind with uninterrupted lake views, or explore everything on offer at this fantastic Lake Tarawera location.

Easter at Tarawera
We had a lovely family holiday at Lake Tarawera over Easter. The days were warm but the mornings and evenings a bit chilly, so the fire was very welcome to have. The house was very well appointed and there were plenty of activities on site like air hockey, table tennis and foosball. As well as being close to the lake for walks around the edge and not too far from the mountain bike park. Would definitely recommend

Perfect for chilled out break
Quiet and peaceful location. Beautiful views. Easy access to the lake. Well equipped bach with ping pong table, table hockey and fuseball table. And kayaks. And only 15mins to the Whakarewarewa MTB park. Great for a chilled out break.
