We had a great stay in Kuratau. This property is a bach, but it’s a really good one - good kitchen, nice and warm in winter (good heat pump and plenty of blankets), cheerful and sunny, good location. We’d very happily stay here again.

Fab Kings Birthday Weekend Away

Our party of 12 had a great stay at Tessa property. Location was perfect for what we wanted (kids had a ball riding their bikes around the nice quite cul-de-sac, river/local cafe/playground within nice walking distance). House was well stocked w everything we needed & had plenty of room for everyone (kids loved all staying together in the big bunk room). Brazier was a nice touch for some mid-winter cheer. Tessa was a very responsive & accommodating host.

Nice house in lovely neighborhood

Our family stayed for 2 days in hopes of hiking in the nearby national park for a view of what Hobbit fans would call Mount Doom. Your house was a nice cozy setting in a nice neighborhood. We enjoyed the trail that went down to the riverside. Our host was very helpful and easy to communicate with. Thank you so much!

Kurutau

Nice property with everything that you need for a comfortable stay. BBQ hadn’t been cleaned and didn’t operate ( no gas or something else. The green waste bin had general rubbish in it so not sure how good the servicing between stays is. Very well equipped house.
