we stayed in the self-service cottage, it is a very clean, comfortable house with artistic decorations, and high-quality furniture. This is the house with the most tableware I've ever seen. It is beside the Tongariro river trail. just walk to fly fishing. the another highlight is the cedar spa pool.

Loved the location, the hosts and atmosphere. This was a piece of paradise, Rebecca and Jason are exceptional hosts who exceeded in their hospitality, our room was so clean and comfortable, breakfast was fantastic and overall our stay was amazing! We love the River Birches and will be back again for a longer stay next time, thank you Rebecca and Jason.

As it was raining during our stay, maybe a little more shelter?
