About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The woolshed - pet friendly luxury retreat

Converted woolshed, set on a small farm of 25 hectares. We have cows and horses.

We are 15 min from Taupo town.

The Woolshed is separate from our home, giving you privacy during your stay. From the deck area/French doors all you will see is farmland!

We are directly off SH1, down a long drive way, making this a great location for those wanting a place to stay during a road trip, but also quiet and peaceful if you want a few days away!
The space
The studio is an open plan area, with a bed and couch. Kitchenette with Microwave, toaster, electric frying pan, fridge and kettle. Bathroom with shower, basin and toilet.

There is a large deck and outdoor fire.
Guest access
The woolshed is a separate building - you will have the place to yourselves!
Other things to note
The garden area is full faced, making it safe for your dogs to enjoy!
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchenette and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include an electric kettle and an ironing board.
