The owner is really warming and welcoming on our arrival. The entrance to the property and garden is fantastic. The room was very clean and tidy. The bathroom was great. It has a really good shower which was well needed after our Tongariro crossing. The breakfast was great. Overall we give this place a hundred percent. It ticked all the boxes and we would highly recommend this place to anyone travelling to this area. From Chad & Jenna.

Amazing Hosts
Lovely place to stay, with stunning scenery all around and very comfortable rooms. Heather and Peter were very friendly and welcoming throughout the stay. There is a great breakfast selection - a perfect way to prepare for a day on the mountains. Would highly recommend the lodge to anyone.
