Mountviews Lodge is so much more than just a place to stay.. It's a place to create lasting memories with your friends & family. Located near Acacia Bay, this beautifully furnished rural hideaway is only 8 minutes drive to town centre. There is a swimming pool with mini slide, a spa pool to soak in, a playground to keep the kids entertained, and a glamping bell-tent (for some months of the year). Fire up the BBQ and enjoy a picnic on the extensive lawn area of this truly special property. The stunning private grounds feature beautiful gardens, a pond, and views of Mount Tauhara. This original lockwood home boasts 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (including master ensuite) and two separate dining areas. There is plenty of space to relax and unwind indoors and outdoors. Bedding configuration is: 1 x Queen 1 x Queen 1 x Queen 2 x Singles (The 2x Single beds can be put together, with a mattress-topper to make a Super-King if you wish. You must let us know at least 7 days prior to arrival if you would like this to be done.) The heatpump and 2x fireplaces will keep you toasty warm. From mid December - beginning of April, the glamping tent will be set up and available for you to use if you wish. Please note - the maximum for this property is 8 guests all year round. IMPORTANT - There is a pond on the property, not far from the house, which is not fenced. This is a hazard, and it is important that young children are supervised at all times when staying at the property. Please take this into account before booking. The swimming pool is not heated. The spa pool is heated and will be available all year. This property is STRICTLY not suitable for any parties, events, gatherings, or loud groups of any kind.
