Scannell Street Central - includes linen and WiFi

This house was perfect for our stay in Taupo. It had everything we could’ve needed and more. The fire was fantastic and warmed the living area very easily. We brought our own fire starters and kindling but there were some already there although you didn’t need much. The fire didn’t heat down to the bedrooms but each room had a heater of its own which kept us nice and warm on some freezing nights! The kitchen had everything you could need for general day to day cooking which was fantastic. Could not fault this place at all. We were able to fit our RAV in the garage overnight (it just fit) which was great for an early start to avoid the frost but our other vehicle was safe out on the road too. Was unable to find a welcome book with more information in the house but the information provided on the fridge was sufficient. Rubbish bags were provided and the one bag of rubbish allowed was easily kept to over our 2 night stay. The backyard was fully fenced and safe for our child to play in. They could access under the main area of the house as it is raised above the ground and open to the yard but there did not appear to be anything dangerous accessible to them. We brought our own but there was a portacot and infant seat with tray available.

Overall great little bach and close to town The only let down is the house is very cold even with the fire going doesnt heat up the whole house and the car parking is tiny we couldnt even fit our nissan ute in the driveway so hang out onto the foot path. Apart from these 2 things everything else was awesome has everything you need.

It was amazing to have use of the fireplace- really made the trip for us.

This holiday house is a little older, but the beds were all really warm and comfortable. To get into the property we had to jump the fence as we couldn't undo the gate lock, which we think was just a bit stiff from the cold. The heating was a fireplace, which is fine if you know how to start a fire, but there was no paper so we bought some fire-starters and a paper to get the fire starter, no heat pump. The kitchen was a little tired and could do with a revamp. A pair of metal tongs would be good. There is no dishwasher. The house is located a few km's from the main drag, but only takes a minute or two in the car. There is a couple of board games at the house, but a few more would have been great. Without sounding too picky, a clock on the wall and a bigger TV would be good. Overall we had a good time.

Nice and cosy for our workers, thats why we have used use 3 weeks in a row.. hopefully while our workers are down here we can use your accommodation the whole time :)
