Beautiful spot to stay in Turangi

Beautifully presented home. Very clean and tidy. Set up brilliantly like a home away from home with so many lovely extras. Lovely back yard and great off street parking. Only a short two minute walk to the lovely river and walkway. Great kids playground and park nearby for our grandchildren too. We would highly recommend this home to stay in. We definitely will again for a future Turangi visit.
