    Convenient location, very clean and well set up. Fresh cooked loaf of bread was amazing and added bonus of a visit from Garfunkel!

    The unit was perfect size for us. The bread in the morning was a winner. Hosts were very friendly and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. We arrived rather late but they were there to greet us and hand over keys.

    The hosts were everything you could ask for in hosts. The fresh baked bread on day 1 was just outstanding....I just had to cook bacon to go with it.

Amanda & Colin Peterson
We offer the approximately 50m2 ground floor area of our home. This space consists of a lounge area incorporating a kitchenette and dinette area, there is a bedroom with a double bed, another bedroom with a single bed, and a bathroom. The comfortable sofa bed in the lounge area sleeps 2. There is a small covered outdoor setting, and convenient car parking. Our space is nothing fancy, but it is well equipped, warm in winter, cool in summer, relaxed and comfortable.
We are a middle aged couple with a bit of an empty nest, only the youngest one of our four boys is still at home. We are keen waterskiers and also enjoy getting away in our caravan. We have a few chickens which are a bit of fun, and we are trying to develop good vegetable gardens also. Amanda is the Regional Manager for a property management firm, and Colin is involved in Plumbing and property maintenance type work. When you stay with us we want you to feel like you are staying with “friends of friends”.
The area we live in is pretty ordinary by NZ standards. It’s a fairly normal 1980’s era well established neighbourhood that is generally pretty quiet. Rotorua is a fairly compact place so we are still conveniently located to most of Rotorua’s attractions and activities.
