Raetihi was an excellent place to unwind and connect. The beautiful rural property was glorious at all times of the day. The fireplace warm and inviting. A lot of fun was had toasting marshmallows on the fire pit and soaking in the Hot Tub.
A very nice Bach loaded with things to do (games and books), we didn’t miss the tv or mobile. A kitchen well stocked with utensils to help with baking, cooking, pizzas, etc. 35 mins away from Turks ski fields and 45 mins away from Whakapapa. Photos of the back could be better. I log fire keeps the whole Bach warm.
Loved our stay at the Dwelling, so cosy and had everything we needed. Really clean and comfortable and there was plenty of room for all of us. Thanks so much, hopefully we will be back again!
Lovely place to stay! The fireplace is amazing and heats up the house very quickly. The outdoor pizza oven was great, definitely take advantage of it when your here.
