A games room for the kids kept them entertained in the evenings while we cooked dinners in a kitchen that had an air fryer, microwave, oven and stove top. The beds had new linen on them and were comfortable to sleep in. The house is warm and toasty, with an aircon to cool it down on the super hot days. 2 bathrooms with a large group makes it a great place to stay. Close by is a small dairy and takeaway shop. A short drive to the end of Te Puru Creek road has you at a fabulous waterhole for swimming. The property has heaps of linen and tea towels for kids to do washing up with. An excellent stay and we would definitely consider returning to this property! ##### Daneka N.
