Our accommodation is 7 minutes drive from Taupo town centre. Approximately 1km from Taupo Airport. Dropzone with trampolines and bowling is not far. Countdown is also just a few minutes drive.
This accommodation is behind our mainhouse, it has separate access and a separate walkway.

Location is great!
Short walk to the lake, short drive to a supermarket, and cafes. Our host Dorothy was excellent to deal with. We had a bit of luggage to unpack and carry to the rear of the property..two young men living in the main house came to rescue and helped out. Thanks!!
