Lovely little cottage with fully equipped kitchen for supplied bacon and eggs with muesli/bran/yoghurt/fruit/toast/fudge etc. Gorgeous rolling gardens with ponds, bridges, seats, pathways and viewpoints. Allow 45min each way for the walk up to the secret waterfall( well worthwhile). Jill is friendly , helpful and hardworking.

The views from the hot tub in the morning with the sun shining, drinking complimentary sparling wine, was a perfect way to start the day. Own entrance, terrace and access to sauna in the back of the property felt very private. The host has truly created the perfect setting for a relaxing couple’s retreat.

This was the best property we stayed in on our 2 week road trip around Nth Island of NZ. And we stayed at some posh places (5 Star, etc.). Blown away with this farm stay. Such a lovely people. Great accommodation with every amenity. So peaceful and relaxing. If you're visiting Waitomo caves of anywhere in the area - Stay here. It's beautiful

The decking was a bonus. We enjoyed being close to the train track. The trains were very infrequent but they were interesting to watch. Overall a quiet location and only a short drive into town to eat. The staff were very friendly and helpful!

    One of the motels that are ubiquitous in New Zealand.

    One of the motels that are ubiquitous in New Zealand. Perfect, functional accommodation for one night or two. Clean, perfunctory, and ok. Does it merit the price that is asked? That is a question of supply vs demand .....

    The Food & restaurants were fantastic.

    The Food & restaurants were fantastic. Te Kuiti was very central to many of the sightseeing activities like the world famous Waitomo Caves & Pio Pio, where many scenes for the 'academy award winning movie ' by Peter Jackson, "Lord of the Rings' were filmed. Only a stone throw away from Matamata, where the 'Hobbiton movies' were made!

    This is a farming commercial area close to the Waitomo Caves and cave worms tour. The town is basically two main roads with a few restaurants, stores, supermarket and other services. There is a train stop. We did not use the train for travel. It is only 15 minutes to Waitomo Caves and a good place to start exploring the cliffs along the Pacific Ocean further south.

    The Waitomo Caves is a must-see, and there are other attractions close by. We grabbed lunch at the Waitomo General Store which is more than just a store.The Cafe and menu selection is amazing and very reasonably priced. Cassandra and her team are a friendly bunch and super efficient.

    The garden at the cottage was amazing to explore. Te Kuiti has a fantastic Indian Takeaway with a wide range of menu options including a traditional Chicken Tikka Marsala and a toandoor oven to make Naan. Only problem was that we arrived on a weekend and a lot of restaurants nad safes were closed and no shops open (this is normal in New Zealand country areas but not where we come from in Australia). Ladies in the inforamtion centre were very helpful.

    The reception staff were very helpful and welcoming. My room was spacious, very well set up, and mine had a large balcony overlooking a creek. Very comfortable bed, which was very welcome after a long drive. Helpful hints: the motel is at the northern end of town so a bit of a walk from the main shops and supermarket, Te Kuiti is on the main trunk line, so be aware there are a few trains passing through from time to time, it would be a nice place to stay for a few days to explore the area.

    Spot,less rooms. Plenty of towels. A bonus was the sandwiches and cake and apple in the fridge. Staff were very friendly. The views were beautiful. Shame the restaurant balcony wasn't on the sunny side. The centre if town has only one bar so the fact that the hotel was a bit of a walk we found the bar there quite acceptable
