Lovely holiday spot

Great holiday accommodation for exploring the Taranaki region. Comfortable, clean with all the necessities for along term stay. Hosts Chris and Fiona were so welcoming and friendly. Lots of activities for the kids, on an expansive property with lots to explore.

Lovely place to stay

The house had all we needed for a few nights away. Easy commute in to New Plymouth. Beautiful gardens to wander around in and ducks and rabbits to interact with. Fiona and Chris were very welcoming.

Family weekend away

Hosts are fantastic, took time to show our grandchildren their animals and let the girls help put the chooks to bed, accommodation is very roomy and so space for everyone, it was hot but you could leave all the windows open which helped (perhaps one day an air conditioner could be installed?). Overall a great place to stay, close to NP itself but semi rural enough to be quiet and relaxing. Certainly somewhere we would stay again.

Waitara wonderland!

Delightful and comfortable place to stay for a family of four, a very reasonable price, and with exceptional hosts, Fiona even made me a hand made leather belt because it was the one thing I forgot. Close enough to New Plymouth that it wasn't an issue doing and seeing all the things we wanted, but was nice to be able to escape the city business for something peaceful and picturesque.

Snow trip

Fiona and Chris are the loveliest hosts who go above and beyond! Their massive park like garden and orchard are very impressive, especially with the special lights at night. We had a very comfy and cosy stay.

Beautiful place

Fiona and Chris were very accommodating and friendly. It is a great spot for families. My son had a blast swimming in the pool (Fiona and Chris's pool they kindly let vayden use at his pleasure) and shooting hoops. The pictures if the place don't do it justice.

Large family friendly space

Our family loved everything about this stay. Wonderfully warm welcoming hosts, huge space and gardens. We adventured to the White Cliffs which was incredible walking and sunset. Another evening spent at New Plymoth was wonderful. Hosts even helped us dry out our wet camping gear. Cant recomend this Bach highly enough.

Would recommend and would stay again!

Fiona and Chris are the most wonderful hosts. Our elderly family members were so comfortable at this property. The cottage had all they needed for their week stay and the grounds were beautiful to spend time in to unwind. Wider family visited and needless to say we will all be regulars when we come back to Waitara! Ngā mihi kōrua ❤️
