Cottage in Tauranga Taupo

4.89 out of 5 average rating, 106 reviews

True Kiwi Bach Experience

Sitting on the shore of the great Lake Taupo is this genuine family bach. Perfectly located 25 mins south of Taupo or 15 mins north of Turangi and 5 seconds from the water! Lovingly extended and updated since it's 1940's fisherman's hut origins. NOTE: For winter stays, there is NO heatpump or fireplace, only wall heaters. In the autumnal months, it is possible for mice to be seen as the temperatures can cool quickly on the central plateau. Keep all food sealed so you don't tempt them inside.

Tongariro Hut. A fun quirky north facing cottage.

You will Need to supply your own linen and towels etc. Our wonderful bach full of character, is an old mill house which belonged to the local timber mill from the 1940-50s. It then spent several years as the Tauranga ski club, before being lovingly restored into a groovy bach full of rustic charm. It's the perfect place to getaway and relax, or to use as a base after your high octane adventures around the Central Plateau.
