Lovely, quiet location - great hosts!
We loved the location, the hosts were very friendly and accommodating, and the accommodation was ideal for our two-night stay. We appreciated the little things like having tea/coffee/fruit bursts provided. We also loved the dogs, cats and birds that the owners have!

Tokoroa hideaway
We were looking for somewhere to stay with our two dogs, a Pomeranian and a Border Collie. This was perfect for what we needed, place for the dogs to do their business and comfortable for us. We were able to travel to Karangahake Gorge to do the amazing walk there and the following day to do some walks around Rotorua.

This was everything we hoped for and then some. Cannot thank our hosts enough for their hospitality. The studio had so many little details to make our stay so much more pleasurable. Our little dogs were safe and comfortable. Can’t wait to go back

Peaceful
I booked this place as it was perfectly between my two destinations that was too long to drive for. I stayed one night but wish I could have stayed longer! Super easy to find. The cabin had everything you need. Perfect spot to take dogs to. Loved all the little touches such as variety of hot drinks, biscuits, milk in the fridge, lovely toiletries, parrot theme. The bed was super comfy and the whole place was spotless. Loved waking up to birdsong and watching the cows and ducks stroll past while sitting outside with my morning coffee. My dog had an awesome time too. I didn’t want to leave ! Thanks Jan & Bill!

Absolutely peaceful, and the view was amazing. We love the country so the smell we were okay with
The Studio was so cute we really enjoyed our time out in the country relaxing from our busy days and nights we had over the 3 days we stayed. Jan and Bill are amazing hosts. Our 2 furr babies loved relaxing on the deck in the sun as well. Recommend this place if you just want to chill and of course don't mind the country smells.

Comfortable and quiet
We really enjoyed our stay here, the hosts were super friendly and made a special effort to sort out the TV which wasn't working. A very quiet environment, 5 kms off the main road, comfortable and clean. Seperate cabin away from main house, so privacy ensured.

Lovely
A convenient halfway spot on our travels. Great to have pet friendly place to stay. Cottage had everything we required and was thoughtfully laid out. Very clean and cozy. Electric blanket on bed was nice as it was winter. Would be a lovely spot in the summer. Really appreciated the wee run around area for the dog and the birds were interesting. Thank you a lovely stay.
