About this property
Tongariro's Tui Hut, on the edge of the Tongariro River
Wanting a getaway to tranquil Turangi where you're perfectly positioned to enjoy both the mountains, the lake, and the rivers? We have the perfect spot for you. Welcome to Tui Hutt.
This charming lockwood home is cozy and furnished with comfort in mind. The ideal spot to come back to after your days of exploring this exciting part of New Zealand.
The space
In summer or winter, Tui Hut offers year-round relaxation with comfortable indoor and outdoor living. Warm sunny days/evenings can be spent dining alfresco and sizzling up a feast on the BBQ. In winter make yourself right at home in the living room, where you’ll love the toasty warmth of the wood-burning fireplace. Tui Hut offers complimentary WiFi, a TV with Freeview, PlayStation, and a range of books and puzzles for everyone to enjoy.
There are two bedrooms that sleep up to five guests, making this a great spot for two couples or a family looking for a base for their fishing, boating, hiking, or snow escape. Walk across the road and you are on the Tongariro River Trail. Walk, run or mountain bike these well-maintained tracks or divert into one of the many fisherman accesses. There is a great swimming hole just 1 ½ min walk!
For a day on the lake, drive to the Tokaanu Northern Boat Ramp just seven minutes away.
Hop in the car and you’ve got a region filled with adventure and beautiful scenery. Hike the Tongariro Crossing, raft down the Tongariro River, visit the trout hatchery, or indulge in a soak at the Tokaanu Thermal Pools. It's all so easy and Taupo is only 40min drive.
If you're feeling famished after an adventure-filled day, the local supermarket, cafés and restaurants are all a convenient four-minute drive away from Tui Hut.
Tui Hut is a private spot backing onto the river where relaxation or adventure awaits.
Guest access
Guests have full access of the house. There is no access to the garage.
Other things to note
This is a 2 bedroom property. Please note, the bedding configuration for this property includes a queen bed in bedroom 1, and a set of triple bunks in bedroom 2. Bed linen is provided but guesses are required to bring their own towels.
