About this property

Becky's Bach, modernised cottage, with views

The 1958 native timber cottage has been renovated for a relaxed and modern lifestyle, with open plan living, kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is fully self contained and boasts modern appliances, including dishwasher and washing machine. The living area opens up to a covered verandah with BBQ, where you can enjoy the view of either the lake and the mountains and watch the beautiful Taupo sunsets while relaxing with a glass of beer or wine. In winter you can sit in the lounge with the heater on flame effect for a cosy night indoors.

The cottage has two bedrooms, one bathroom, air conditioning and is ideally suited for a couple’s retreat or it can sleep up to a maximum of four people. A small private paved area at rear the of the house can be somewhere to relax in the sun.

As an added bonus there is plenty of space to park the boat off road and has a double carport.

The bed arrangements are normally made up as a Queen bed in one bedroom and a king single bed in the second bedroom. On request, the two king singles can be made to become a Super King. Please advise when booking.

The property is close to the Two Mile Bay boat ramp and a short distance from De Brett's Thermal pools where you can soak the day away.

For stays more than 3 nights rates are available on request.

Taupo trip
Very good, plenty of space for the boat and car. Plus a carport to park in the shade. Just needed to be careful when exiting the drive with the boat as there is a blind corner on the road.

Lovely little bach!
We were super lucky to have found this bach last minute, the people who manage the property were incredibly lovely to deal with and made checking in and out a breeze. The Bach itself is nice and light and has a great view of the lake. It was the perfect place for my two friends and I. Thank you!
