KERRY LUDLAM
Lovely spacious home, great for multiple families with super comfy beds. We were looked after really well by Nanette.
Response from Owner
Thank you Kerry and congratulations on your extended families 17th year competing in the Taupo Cycle Challenge.
Kathy Allen
Service awesome, nothing too hard to sort out, great for for large groups or extended families and children.
Response from Owner
Kathy was extremely disappointed that she missed out by only a few hours on booking our home for the International Motorsport event in April next year. Another regular group made their booking on the day of the announcement for 25 nights for that event for both 2024 and 2025. Kathy and Huw have three generations of their family, their staff (who are pit crew for their son's racing team) and some of their staff's immediate family. Even with this diverse group, there were still three of the eight bedrooms unused. All the young children loved the range of toys we had available for them to play with. It was an honour to have Alex, Kathy's employee, refer our home to Kathy after staying here for a friends bachelor party a few months prior.
Ian Jones
Nanette, a great big thank you from the family. Your home is amazing. We had a great family weekend and there was plenty of room the spread out, nice walk down town and to the hot pools. Also thank you for your catering service, brilliant.
Response from Owner
Thank you Ian and Lou, it was an honour to provide Debbie with a special 50th birthday celebration with your delightful extended family. Kind regards. Nanette, Amélie and Aurelia
