Fabulous house for fishing, walking or skiing. Two minutes from the Tongariro

Welcome to our warm and comfortable holiday home which is located on Taupahi Rd, Turangi. It's the perfect location for fly-fishing, skiing, hiking, biking or just a relaxing weekend by the fire.

The house has an open plan lounge, dining and kitchen which is kept warm by the log-burner fire. The well equipped kitchen has a gas hob, double oven and a well stocked pantry. The three bedrooms have plenty of warm bedding and can sleep up to 6 people.

Enjoy endless hot water from the infinity gas hot water system to warm you up after a day skiing or on the river.

The garden is flat, private and sunny with room to park 2 cars off the street.

This is a pet friendly house. Your well behaved dog is welcome to stay but please note the section is not fully fenced so only suitable for dogs who don't roam. Please enquire about bringing your pet.

Sorry but under 25yo group bookings may not be accepted.
