We are offering the same amenities at the reduced price for our 4ha, private and secure park like grounds with a 146 m2 four bedroom house plus 120m2 deck with views of Mt Ruapehu, native bush, streams, waterfall and water features. The kitchen is fully equipped to cater for 2 families. microwave, 2x fridge/freezers, fan bake oven, crock pot, rice cooker, blender, coffee, tea, sugar, spices provided.
