    It was beautiful and peaceful. Siting out on the deck and taking in the view was nostalgic. Very easy to sit there and lose track of time.

    What a wonderful cottage, excellent renovation, everything was perfect, could not have asked for more. Would have loved to stay longer if our itinerary allowed. Views to die for.

    The cottage was beautifully presented, warm, spacious and had a touch of calm about it. The covered deck was a great spot to sit with a coffee and watch the sunrise and although close to the highway, the road traffic was almost un noticeable....

    The house was in a great location close to Lake Karipiro. Located on a hill it gave a sense of space and the views were lovely across to the Waikato river. The house was warm roomy and comfortable.

Hi! I am Silvana and the one with me in the pic is my husband, Craig. I am originally from Santiago, Chile, and Craig is from New Zealand. We met in Algarrobo, Chile 15 years ago. I am an accountant, and I own my own business; Craig also has his concrete landscapes business, too. After spending years traveling in different countries like Australia, Chile, Argentina, Peru, and other cities. We decided to work in this area. We are living in the new house close to our Cottage; therefore, if you have questions, you need something, or you just want to have a chat and drink a cup of coffee, we are there. We are a family of four, two children, 5 and 12 years old. We love to travel together and do things together as a family. Feel free to get in contact with us, and we will be glad to let you spend a wonderful holiday.
