| Testimonials |
- Adrienne and Clarrie are superb hosts. They
can be as entertaining or as invisible as you would like them
to be! The morning hampers were a lifesaver.
Cori Barkle, Auckland, New Zealand
- Thanks for a wonderful stay, the place is
just so relaxing, I did not want to leave. It was gorgeous waking
up to the sound of the lapping waves and the feel of the morning
breeze off Lake Rotorua. Vanessa Yeo, Auckland, New Zealand
- An absolutely great spot. The lake is made
for kayaking and windsurfing and was very close to the Okere river
rafting. A great spot to unwind after a crazy day.
Dave Ellis, Toronto, Canada
- Hi Adrienne, just a note to say thank you
for looking after us during our stay at the cottage. The cottage
was one of the highlights of our visit to New Zealand, we are
missing the views already. We had a wonderful time in Rotorua,
we also took your recommendation and spent 4 sun drenched days
in Napier. Now back in the cold UK. Oh, well done on the lucky
victory last Saturday! (All Blacks vs Lions). Kind Regards
Darren, Jane & Max, England
