Home away from home

Our family had a wonderful stay at Lake Rotoma. The home is completely decked out with everything a family needs which was awesome in terms of what we didn't need to bring. The fact that the interior is also stylishly decorated contributed to the overall experience. The rural setting was quiet and relaxing, the roaring fire and spa were also big winners. Access to other nearby lakes also was another big plus for our boating. Rechelle was an excellent host, thank you.

I suggest you not put "Excellent swimming, water skiing and fishing at Lake Rotoehu" in the description, as the lake was unsuitable for both, very polluted and smelt. We did however, enjoy Lake Rotoma which was clean and clear and great for fishing and swimming, and 10mins down the road.

The property was as expected set in a lovely large garden with views over both farm land and down to the lake. The house was very clean and tidy with beds made up and plenty of towels including extra towels for the spa. Terry had lit the fire, and heated the spa pool which was lovely. The house also has underfloor heating in part and was really toasty and comfortable. We are a family of 4, plus puppy, and the house worked perfectly for us. A bonus was a lovely welcome food parcel R left us!

Quite location with a lovely view overlooking the lake. Great to be so close to the natural thermal pools. Effective wood burner and underfloor heating, making the place cosy. The spa didn't seem to be working properly which was a little disappointing but luckily we had the thermal pools
