Lovely Turangi escape
We really enjoyed our break in Turangi. The house was awesome. It was so well appointed, and comfortable. The roaring fire and proximity to the river were also appreciated. Thank you.

Beautiful!
Quaint family home in a great location next to the river. Beautiful garden views out every window and a lovely fire place. The kids enjoyed playing in the tree house and on tree swing. Immaculately kept inside and out. Our family thoroughly enjoyed staying at this property.

Fishing weekend celebration
A fabulous stay at Fisherman's Retreat for my partner's birthday celebration. Couldn't have wished for a better location, so close to the river! My partner fished every day & thoroughly enjoyed it. House was warm & cosy & had everything you need, great we could take our border collie too. We will definitely be back!

Fisherman’s retreat
Superb house for myself and 2 mates, planned on fishing but the wind and rain mostly stopped that. Nice warm fire, lots of firewood, with a backup of the heat pump for early mornings. Great location across the road from the river

Warm, cozy & great location
We loved our stay at the Fisherman's Retreat, the house has a big fireplace and heat pump and made the house so warm and cozy.
The location is fantastic for fishing, just over the road and you're on the river.
Lydia was a fantastic host, quick to respond and we were lucky to be the first guests at the house.
We will definitely be coming back and are looking forward to spending some time here in summer as the deck and gardens are beautiful and are made for summer BBQ's.
