Rustic Home located close to the beach/lake

Good location with enough room for our family for the Ironman Weekend.A disappointment was the lower level bedrooms and bathroom, all needed updating. We would have liked to have seen a welcome manual about house directions, as well.The house host was very communicative with us. Gorgeous views!

The guests who made these comments were American visitors who came to Taupo for the World Ironman. It was made clear that our house is a family bach not a second home. Clear instructions about the house are always sent to guests before their date of arrival so no further manual is required.

I would rate this bach 5 stars for what we required it for. Very comfortable, homely and we felt we could relax without worrying about messing it up. Good parking and easy access off the main road, easy access to the water and bike rides. Yes it ticked our boxes!! thanks from the Trobridge and Shaw families
