Great place to Rest

We had a great stay at this Tiny House. It has everything you need, comfortable and warm, or cool in our case taking advantage of the A/C. The Spa is a great touch and with limited signal, no WIFI or TV you have an opportunity to relax and switch off.

Beautiful & tranquil yet close by

We loved our stay, it felt like wer were a world away but were just next to where we needed to be. The place was so nice and warm and had all the comforts of home you need when staying away. The front deck was drenched in afternoon sun which made it lovely for a sit and unwind after an exciting afternoon of bird watching.

Lovely place with fabulous views

Cosy place that worked well for our group (2 couples). We loved the wide views, lounged on the deck in the sun after our outings, and enjoyed relaxing in the spa under the night sky :) Handy position to Putaruru, Arapuni and Sanctuary Mountain. Much recommended.

Tiny house

What a lovely little tiny house! Such a great place to unplug (no tv or wifi) and enjoy the surroundings. Definitely need a car to get to and to other places.

Thanks for your kind comments - we're very proud of our little place. So central to great attractions, but far enough away to relax! We loved hosting you and hope we see you again one day!

Perfect 'Middle Earth' Getaway

A fantastic stay, we booked for two nights but loved it that much we asked to stay another night, it was almost two! Perfect for a couple of friends, two rooms, comfy beds and plenty of towels. The Spa amazing! There is limited wifi signal an old TV and a selection of DVD's and some games, so not for you if can't unplug. We found it warm, cosy and would highly recommend, plus Sue was great to deal with. A perfect spot.

Peaceful mini-cabin

Great communication, easy check in / check out, no surprises. No wifi/tv was not a problem as hottub and lovely deck / grassy area kept everyone entertained. There was minimal cell service for one of us (on spark I think), but Vodafone had no issues. Will stay again if adventuring nearby :)

Good place to stay

This was a good place to stay and would like to do it again but it wasn't clear that there wasn't internet. We didn't know until we saw the note. It was fine but I didn't know that. BBQ and the hot tub was a great addition!

Amazing!!

It was an absolutely perfectly little get away that we used for a honeymoon base, going to rotorua and Tauranga for some activities and having a perfect little spot to have some days of relaxing and time out. We loved having a spa under the stars at the end of a day! Has absolutely everything you need for some time to disconnect and just enjoy some peace and quiet! She was an amazing host who also even left us a little honeymoon surprise which we were very grateful for! Would 100% recommend! Thanks heaps!
