We built our home in Kinloch 10 years ago and are fortunate to have fabulous views of Lake Taupo and Kinloch International golf course. We are within 10 minutes walk of the lake beach, marina and local shop and restaurant. Our home is ideally located for mountain bikers, golfers and in the past international tourists wanting to have a base for visiting Rotorua, Taupo, Hobbiton and Waitomo! We are located half way between Auckland and Wellington. We are adjacent to the Great Lake mountain biking trail, within a 20 minute drive of three international golf courses and close to lots of hiking trails, including the Tongariro Crossing. Taupo as an events centre can become very busy so many of our guests choose a quieter location in Kinloch.
I am a recently retired teacher with a detailed knowledge of the local area. I love hosting guests at our home and hope I can make your North Island experience around Taupo tailored to your needs. In addition, I like to ensure that I provide a healthy breakfast with home-made ingredients.
Kinloch itself is a place to spend your holiday. Swimming, biking, golfing and tennis are some of the outdoor activities on offer. In and around Taupo, there are numerous geothermal attractions - Orakei Korako, Craters of the Moon, Wai-o-Tapu; Hot pools - Wairakei Terraces, De Bretts; Boating trips to the Maori Carvings and outdoor adrenalin activities like Sky Diving, White Water Rafting, Parasailing and Bungy Jumping. And of course there are lots of small boutique shops and cafes and bars. For other outdoor activities there are fishing, kayaking, sailing, paddle boarding, biking, golfing, hiking and skiing in the winter months. What more could you want for!
