Donna and Fred were exceptionally accommodating hosts. They stayed up late to greet me and generously upgraded my room so that I would have easy access to the breakfast area in the morning as I needed to depart early the next day. They also kept a bag safe for me after I had already "checked out" while I was on an outdoor course. The accommodation was spacious, clean and well appointed and the continental breakfast was generously portioned. The shower pressure was excellent. Their back garden is spectacular.

In a beautiful quiet garden setting. The garden was secure, which meant our small dog could sniff around with no chance of escape. Our room & bathroom were very clean and comfortable. There was a shared room next door to make tea, coffee etc ( supplied ) with the other guests ( 1 room ). Easy to get to, with a central location close to the lake and Rainbow Point. Delightful hosts could not have been more helpful and accommodating. Complimentary Continental breakfast had far more choices than home.

Beautiful setting Very comfortable bed and pillows Quiet and peaceful. We were able to take our dog. Fabulous hosts

Lovely location on a nice road just round the lake from town. Room was very comfortable with fans in case it’s hot. Bathroom and shower pressure superb. Coffee room a nice touch and breakfast was nice. Host very pleasant. Really nice garden that you’re welcome to use

Wi-Fi was intermittent but that’s more an FYI to Donna as forgot to mention this morning. Wasn’t a problem for me in the slightest and no doubt just needs a router reboot. 10/10 air b+b at a good price

Breakfast on the first day of the two days was excellent: nutritious, delicious and plenty! On the second day my conference began very early so I had to miss out on the breakfast from 8.30am.

This is where I learned that the Tea Room where my breakfast would be was also linked with the second room facilities. Thus my breakfast was not available there on the second day. I was invited into the main house for breakfast after 8.30am. :-) Just a pity my conference's final day began so early!

The location is perfect as you're off the main road however you're close enough to be able to walk to everything. This is our second stay, and we feel very welcomed with our two dogs. The backyard is a beautiful fully fenced oasis which makes the stay very relaxing. Beds are comfortable with good quality sheets and towels. Bathroom is clean with lovely towels and good quality toiletries. Best of all Gill our host was so accommodating and friendly.

Highly recommend this bed and breakfast it's always a lovely stay.

Donna and Graeme made us very welcome, and we enjoyed chatting over the lovely breakfasts they gave us. The garden is one to die for, but they are working to improve it even more. Access to the unit is level but a little way from the parking area.

Our only regret was that our ability to cook or reheat, so we ate out each night. This might be worth working on, just make that difference when you feel like a light tea and a flop in front of TV or out in the lovely garden.

Great location comfy bed and dog friendly. Plenty of tea coffee biscuits and breakfast provisions.

Strange ‘tea room’ attached to the king room. We were only guests at the time which was fine - but if others had wanted to use the tea room we would have had little privacy from them / noise would have been heard. Owner was away during our stay and tea room dishes were not cleared away as had been promised.

Donna was very friendly and provided a lovely continental breakfast. The accommodation had off road parking and was set in beautiful mature gardens. The property also offered a bath as well as a lovely shower.

It was a little way from Taupo centre. There were facilities to make a drink and complimentary biscuits, plates and cutlery but these were in a separate room, so if it had been wet, this could have been a problem.

What’s not to like. Helpful host, many breakfast options of cereals and bread,English muffins and crumpets to toast, a large selection of spreads, fresh fruit with beverages. Had a shared kitchenette facility for the two units with toaster and jug plus plates and cutlery if you were eating a meal you had brought in,also a small fridge. The other great beauty was the extensive tree canopy with shaded gardens beneath. There was a garden table and chairs, a lovely setting for a picnic and cuppa. The birds loved it too.

Would have appreciated a squeegee for the shower to reduce condensation in the bathroom.

Lovely accommodation and very nice and welcoming hosts, who were even so kind to take our puppy for a walk so we could enjoy our breakfast in peace! Thank you so very much and we are looking forward to staying again in the future!
