A modern bathroom and laundry facilities add to the convenience, while the attached carport right outside the back door makes arrival and departure a breeze - rain, shine or snow.
The fully fenced, private section offers a safe space for kids to play or to unwind in the fresh alpine air. Plus, you’re only a short walk from local cafés and the bus stop offering access to the Tongariro Alpine Crossing.
With shuttle services to Mount Ruapehu just minutes away, adventure is always within reach - then return home to peaceful surroundings and relaxed mountain style.
