Thank you so much for the most relaxing holiday we've ever had. We loved the secluded spot in the beautiful native bush. Enjoying a vino in the outdoor bathtub was a highlight. Highly recommend!

Just a magical escape from everyday life with everything you need and more.
Loved the stay . Everything was so perfect.. hidden in forest, perfect little oasis to unwind from your busy lives. The place was super clean and very thoughtfully done.. little gestures such as cookies and chocolate from the host was very kind. Location is very good close to city, skyline. Our kid loved the glow worms at night which was the highlight of the stay. Thank you Richard and Sylke
This is an absolutely idyllic location just 10 mins outside of rotorua. Everything has been thought of, right down to emergency needs. Ideal for a romantic getaway or just getting back to nature.
This is a newer, cozy and comfortable cottage nestled in a private forest. It was spotlessly clean and equipped with all we needed for quiet, restful stay. We loved the outdoor bathtub surrounded by trees. Details such as flower petals sprinkled on entry walkway speak of the desire by the hosts to provide a warm welcome to this exceptional place.

This really did feel like the ultimate secluded retreat. The cabin is wonderful, so many little touches and inclusivities to make your stay really lovely. So lovely spending the morning sitting in one of the rocking chairs on the deck, reading and listening to the birds. Or finding the glow worms in the bank opposite the cabin- a real highlight! Cant recommend this place enough.
