The Space:
Country Cabin is a modern black-and-cedar retreat purpose-built for two, set on a lifestyle block in peaceful Hamurana on the northern shore of Lake Rotorua. Inside it's one bright, open space; outside, a private timber deck looks over green paddocks where the resident kunekune pigs hang out just beyond the fence. It's all birdsong, clean country air and slow mornings with a coffee.

The Neighborhood:
Hamurana is a quiet rural village on the northern shore of Lake Rotorua - one of the most peaceful corners of the region, all rolling green hills and clean country air. The Hamurana Springs Recreation Reserve is just up the road (around 10 minutes), home to one of New Zealand's largest natural springs, a grove of towering California redwoods and gentle walking tracks, and the lake shoreline is close by for views, summer swims and quiet sunsets. Ngongotaha village is about 10 minutes south with a grocery store, cafes and takeaways, and the much-loved Okere Falls Store, with its craft beer garden, is a short drive the other way.
Getting Around:
A car makes the most of the area, with off-street parking on site. Skyline's gondola and luge, Canopy Tours and Zorb are around 10 minutes away, the lakefront hot pools at Polynesian Spa and Wai Ariki Spa and Te Puia's geysers about 20, and the Redwoods Whakarewarewa Forest and Rotorua Airport roughly 25. Rotorua's city centre and Eat Streat are around 15-18 minutes south. Hobbiton is about an hour's drive, and the beaches of Tauranga and Mount Maunganui around 50 minutes.
Other Things to Note:
WIFI runs at around 250 Mbps. The resident Kunekune pigs live in the paddock next door, and you're welcome to say hello over the fence. The kitchenette is set up for simple, self-contained cooking rather than large-scale catering.
