Great Breakfast - Cereal Blueberries Yoghurt Coffee Tea Orange Juice Milk Tast and Crumpets All Available and beautifully laid out on the table and bench. Margaret was an outstanding host and would highly recommend if you need a couple of nights in Cambridge. We will sure be returning for future visits to the Waikato.

Margaret
You will be welcomed into a new home in the beautiful Cambridge area. This whole area is unique in many ways. It is a very central area for sightseeing either to Hobbiton or Waitomo Caves. The property is also very close to the Velodrome which is home for our New Zealand Cyclists and also very close to Karapiro which is the home for our New Zealand Rowers. My property is close to the Expressway which makes it easy for getting to Cambridge to travel either north or south. Only 15 minutes to the Hamilton Botanical Gardens which are Waikato's most beautiful gardens. Amazing walking and cycle paths in this area. There is now a Joe's Garage Restaurant and Supervalue Superette just 2 minutes walk from my property
I have been involved in the tourist industry for over 20 years so will be able to help you with any planning for your adventures in New Zealand.
The neighbourhood is beautiful with many cycle and walking tracks to choose from. The new Te Awa Cycle trail has now opened and goes from Hamilton Gardens to Karapiro.
