Great snow trip getaway with friends
Cozy house with all the gadgets needed for a great stay with a group. We had 6 adults and 6 kids which we piled into one room with the bunk beds. 2 kids fitting on the bottom beds as they are bigger. The bunks could do with an oil as they were quite squeaky but other than that an overall good stay. Thanks!

Heat pump in the living area keeps the house warm during our winter stay. Has ample cooking utilities for cooking our own meals. Tons of board games and DVD to keep the children entertained. Cleanliness could be improved. Very dusty under beds and behind furniture. Window sills were dusty and mouldy. No individual heaters in room, which was a problem for us as the baby was cold sleeping in his cot. Supermarket few minutes drive from the house was a bonus. Having instruction manuals to work the dishwasher and dryer would be helpful.

Nice Location-Very rustic
This property had a washer and dryer and a great restaurant/bar down the street. It's very rustic. Cleanliness could be improved upon. Shower curtain bottom had mold and kitchenware was not clean. Toiletries was lacking-you may need to bring your own paper products. Kitchen towels/wash cloths were not included as well. The pictures on the w website are enhanced. The property is more rustic than indicated in the pictures.

Lovely place with the fire place in the living
This is a lovely accomodation to fit two families. Plently of firewood to use, lots of boardgame to keep the kids busy, the bed I slept was very confort too. Two bathroom with high pressure water, love this. Host have give us a very good information guideline in the folder. Just one thing that require to remove the rubbish when we leave. This is not very convienent as the rubbish collect centre is not open everyday. So we purchase the paid rubbish bag in four square and get all rubbish packed up and divided. We have to leave this to cleaner to collect and transfer for us. As we have no room on our car, as the collect centre was not open on the day we departure.

Great for a get away
We stayed here with 2 other families so 6 adults and 6 kids. The house was perfect for what we needed and had a great time. We appreciated the toys and games there that the kids could use. It was also warm and co.fortable. The only issue was that the fireplace didnt seem to have a very good seal and the house got full of fumes when we did use it so we ended up the sticking with the heat pump.

Tongariro Stay
Our family of 6 stayed here for 3 nights. We found it very comfortable with plenty of space for all. The house is very conveniently located for hikes in the area and lovely to come back to the warm fire after being out in the cold and rain. Large garage with plenty of room to park the car and big wood stack. Perfect location for shuttles to Tongariro crossing too which we hope to come back to do one day in better weather conditions. I appreciated all the information supplied on walks and other activities in the local area and maps. There is no outdoor areas or outlooks, it is in a more suburban location than I had imagined but this is fine on cold rainy days if you don't want to be sitting outside anyway. There is a good bar/pub on the corner for a drink, meal, game of pool. Local cafe currently closed though as is Tongariro Chateau to non house guests.
