Beautiful location/ Superb hosts

Highly recommend staying at this wonderful accommodation in the hidden gem of Kinloch. The property owners are absolutely lovely - very friendly and welcoming. Bach was super cosy and just mins away from a short walk to the beach. Taupo wasn’t that far either to drive into town if we wanted to, which wasn’t often as the beach and marina was right there! Will definitely love to stay again.

Christmas at Kinloch

A great little cottage with a good array of kitchen equipment (much needed when cooking Christmas roast), good quality towels and toiletries. Communication with owners excellent. A great spot within easy walking distance of the marina and store.

Cozy, clean and welcoming

Loved our stay at the cozy lockwood property. We were at an event at the Fiber Fresh National Equestrian Centre and it was only a 20 minute drive away. The host met us at the property and showed us through without being intrusive, we did not know that their home was behind ours. Private deck with BBQ so we were able to make our dinners and breakfasts. Only suggestion I have is to perhaps have salt and some more glasses as there was only one glass (but plenty of wine glasses). Apart from that, lovely and very well equipped, very clean.
