Independent in Mangaotaki from NZ$101

"Lovely spacious house, had everything we needed, good kitchen, lovely comfortable beds. Loved the cosy fireplace. Jenny was lovely, met her at the pub that she recommended."

"Clean cosy rooms. "

"Gorgeous bach with totally amazing views - thank you for sharing this with us."

"We were here for maybe 10 hours but very surprising at the quality of room with this stay. One of the best roadside motels ive ever been to in terms of comfort. Large new bed, good qater pressure, clean, and nice soap. Easy check in/out and even though we showed up too late, a nice looking, lively, pub on site. Great stop on our road trip. "

"The stay was fantastic. Amazing scenery and really in the absolute middle of nowhere. Nearest town was around 40 minutes away which was perfect for us. Beautiful river right off the back door and mountains all around. A quick and easy drive to one of the black-sand beaches."

"Was really convenient and comfortable. "

"Everything was great and would definitely stay again. Hours of local restaurants were not optimal for us so check ahead and see if it works for you. Front desk staff was helpful and it’s close to so many caves and bushwalks. "

"Trevor was very accommodating. Very clean rooms, breakfast facility and environs, comfortable bed. Great visits with his dogs and cat. Beautiful views from property. Thanks Trevor."

"The staff was great and so was the Chicken Curry! Parking is a pain."
