    Most comfortable bed I've slept in so far in NZ. Got good advice on places to visit during my stay in Taupo. Loved the breakfast. Lovely family home. One little thing. Maybe put labels on the Bathroom/Shower doors. Big house lots of doors 😄.

    Everything was great. Nannette and her daughters are lovely and made our stay very pleasant. The bathrooms were always super clean and the bed is one the best we ever slept in! We would love to visit Taupo again in the future and we will be...
