About this property

Parkup, Relax and Enjoy our Home

Located in a quiet cul-de-sac only five minutes walk to the lake front and mariner. A small private back yard with a deck that is ideal to have the traditional kiwi BBQ. Or if you prefer, a kitchen that you can cook your own meals and sit at the large dining table to enjoy with friends and family. Sit down in the lounge and enjoy watching TV or sit back and just relax with one of the many books available to read. On the colder times, keep cosy by the warmth of the fire. A 2 minute walk to the local village golf course. Enjoy the many native tracks for walking or cycling located in the area. Only a twenty minute drive to the Taupo township.

Homey in Kinloch

Loved this place! Ron and Sas made us feel right at home and their place was so cute and comfy. We loved the quiet neighborhood and how close it was to a beach. Couldn't have asked for a better find to suit our needs--thank you!

A fabulous place to stay. The house is spacious, comfortable, spotlessly clean and equipped with everything you could possibly need. Location is brilliant, just a short walk to the beach, marina and local store, and a 20 minute drive to Taupō. Lovely hosts - very accommodating. 100% recommended.
