Definitely a good old kiwi bach. Sturdy and fuctional. Great living areas and a good patio for sitting outside for lunch. Excellent offroad parking. Front door was a bit hard to open due to the new carpet but it will wear in over time. Great heating and plenty of hot water. Will be coming back soon I hope.
Really lovely peaceful stay in Turangi. Loads of things to do close enough for day trips. The house itself has everything you need for a good break. The duvets are really good quality and warm. Had a chip heater instead of a fireplace. Lots of kindling left for us to keep it alight but if you were looking for an open or boxed fireplace where you could see the flames then that's not what's there. It's to back up the hot water system. We had a really nice time :-) Would definitely recommend
Exactly what it says on the tin - classic kiwi Bach with all basics covered. Great base for trips around the lake and to the mountain. Beautiful outdoor space - just a note for dog owners that it's not fenced, but plenty of space to run around.
Definately gives the traditional kiwi batch energy, which we absolutely loved.Heating was ample, we found everything we needed and more, and the location was so beautiful.Perfect relaxing little get-away with our 4 year old & our dog.WE WOULD DEFINATELY RECCOMMEND STAYING AT 5HIS BATCH!
Family of four from Auckland, absolutely loved our stay! Has everything you need and good space as a family for such a reasonable price. Lovely location right by the Lake :)
Always a pleasure and honour to stay at Otuarua, a home away from home in a different area with surrounding lakes close to the mountains love it. Thank you Paul n family.
Stayed with my elderly mother who loved the birdsong emanating from the adjacent wetlands. Bird watching heaven, all from the back porch. Close to the scenic walkway along the Tauranga Taupo river; more birdwatching joys await. Bach is simple and functional for any family and ideally located for a multitude of outdoor activities.
Classic kiwi Bach.
Lake just down the road.
The challenge service station where you pick up the keys is fairly well stocked if you need anything including fish and chips.
It is a very old house with a pump and low pressure hot water.
The shower was extremely low pressure, the shower head fell apart twice.
It is a lovely Quiet street
The property was clean and tidy. With everything you need to make the stay comfortably. The host was easily contactable, and instructions were really clear. The property has a fantastic garden for the kids to play in.
Great stay once again.
Quiet , always clean and tidy and great proximity to lake and river fishing.
The addition of new carpet and furniture has enhanced the experience.
We love this little spot we have styed here a number of times now its a perfect litte house and a cool location not too far from Taupo little piece of paradise đ
The little house was everything we needed on our winter road trip. Plenty of heaters and blankets to keep us warm. The decor hasn't changed much since the 1960's but that just added to the charm.
The property was absolutely perfect for what we needed, no complaints about the house at all. We found a lot of cool spots in the area to explore and would recommend it to anyone stopping through the area. Cheers.
We were en route to Auckland and this beautiful spot almost tempted us to stick around⊠Well equipped with everything you need and space for everyone!
