We've been touring New Zealand for three weeks, and Carolyn's place has been our favourite so far. It's very comfortable and well appointed, and has everything you need for a great family stay. A short walkway (fully accessible) takes you right into the town centre, where there's lots of cafes to enjoy and a beautiful lake to picnic by. We loved Taupō, and Carolyn's place is perfect for experiencing it.Carolyn is also a great host and very responsive. She was able to accommodate an early check-in time for us despite having to do a same day turnaround, which we really appreciate. It's clear from the moment you walk in how much care Carolyn has put into hosting, and you'll be in great hands.
