About the host
Hosted by Sarah Bedford
I work full time at the local school dental clinic, have been married for 27 years and have two children who are pursuing their own careers now. I have two well mannered but excitable dogs who are kept away and under supervision while guests are staying.
Why they chose this property
A peaceful retreat centrally located for tourist attractions in the Waikato. Easy access to SH1. Nearby events include the Avantidrome, Fieldays, Cambridge Races, Mystery Creek, Karapiro domain rowing and dragon racing, Hobbiton, Cambridge Saturday Farmer's Market and the monthly Trash & Treasure. Just a 10 minute scenic drive to Cambridge for excellent cafes, walks, cycle trails, restaurants and shops. The chalet is good for couples, business travellers and those wanting to travel with pets. Own transport is essential.
What makes this property unique
