Home away from home.

This home is incredible for a short or long stay, our trip was very last minute and Jan was so helpful and accommodating towards our group. The heater was left on for us upon arrival, fresh bread and milk with a slab of REAL butter in the fridge, what more could 1 ask for. The whole upstairs area gets drenched in sunlight right through the day so relaxing inside or out is that much more enjoyable.Less than 5mins to anywhere. Will definitely love to stay here again.

Fantastic Place To Stay

I have stayed in a number of Book a Bach properties over the years but this was the best ever. The owner was fantastic, the house was amazing with all the little extra's I have never experienced before; there was milk, our preferred bread waiting with chocolates and chocolate biscuits even. I highly recommend this home and would definitely stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay here, it was very clean and lots of space for our 4 adults. We loved that it was in walking distance to town and stadium Waikato where we attended the Women's World Cup Football Match. Lastly, Jan is a GEM!

So much character

I cannot say enough about our host Jan and her beautiful home. We enjoyed our stay and the goodies. A very warm home once the doors are closed. Each of the bedrooms have a heater and the beds are very comfy. The kitchen is a dream and is fully equipped. I would like to make a suggestion, it would be good to somehow close the top house from the bottom house. Leaving during the day was worrying as we did not know the people downstairs and they had left the front door wide open the first night we arrived. Thank you Jan🙏🏼
