About this property

Redwoods Retreat | Spa Pool, Fireplace & BBQ!

Summary:
Redwoods Retreat is a bright and inviting 3-bedroom home, perfectly located just a 30 second bike ride from the renowned Redwoods Forest and within walking distance to the spectacular Redwoods Treewalk. The house offers an open-plan layout with a small deck off the lounge to enjoy the morning sun and a larger deck with a spa pool, BBQ, and outdoor furniture to soak up the afternoon sun. Just a 5-minute drive to Rotorua’s beautiful lakes and the city center, it’s the ideal base for your next stay

The living room has a wood burner fire plus a split style heat pump / AC unit.

The house has a relaxed, comfortable feel where you can feel at home during your stay.

Being so close to the forest, there are countless walking and riding trails right on the doorstep. This really is a great spot to stay when visiting Rotorua.

Guest Access:
The whole house is yours to use and enjoy

The Neighborhood:
Lynmore is one of the most sought after neighbourhoods in Rotorua. It is surrounded by other nice properties and is only minutes to the forest and the lakes.

There is a small store and bakery about 50 metres down the road or take a walk further down the road to the Good Eastern Taphouse and enjoy a craft beer.

Getting Around:
The house is located about 5km from the CBD which is an easy walk if you're up for it through a picturesque thermal walkway. Otherwise, there is a bus stop at the front gate. We have a double garage and plenty of off street parking.

Old House

First impressions were good. However, as soon as you settle in, you notice a lot of dust, dirt and grime. There were Christmas decorations still under the couch and a ball under the bed in the main bedroom. The shelves were only partially wiped and full of dust otherwise. The coffee pods from previous visitors were still in the Nespresso machine. The freezer still has food in it, not sure how long it has been there for. The carpet area under the beds and couches were full of dust. These areas have not been cleaned for a very long time. The toy basket and the vase was used by previous guests as a dustbin, and these were never checked and emptied.

Great family escape

Lovely, clean house, perfect for our school holiday family escape. Just a couple of minutes from the Redwoods MTB trails. A spa for afterwards, ping pong for alternative entertainment, and a lovely warm lounge to relax in at night.

Amazing

This house is incredibly homely and comfortable. Plush carpets, the world's biggest, comfiest couch, lovely linen, etc. My only feedback to owner is that bathroom Could be renovated to same luxurious standard as rest of house. No biggie, just being honest. But we loved our stay. Spa pool was amazing :-) and loved the fire and all the art!

Comfortable and Convenient Holiday Home

Great location and perfect accommodation for our needs. We really enjoyed our stay. Close to the Redwoods for our bike riding and room to store the bikes. We did have to park one of our vehicles close to the garage door to make sure it was secure as one door didn't lock. Be good to have that fixed for anyone wanting to store their bikes. Otherwise certainly recommend this holiday home.

Great location

Beautiful property well equipped for a catch-up of old school friends, was a bit wet and windy so plenty of space in house to do jigsaws and relax with glass of wine and spa in evenings . Highly recommend for a couple of friends to catch-up without kids.

Great place

Fab little place - do not judge the outside when you first see it because inside it is a delight everything was great especially the sofa - OMG - it was so comfortable. The outdoor spa was so relaxing and so warm. The fireplace was great and all the rooms were heated - the location was perfect close to everything- Uber delivers and you can walk to the redwood forest
