Fantastic location and really well run. Facilities have everything you need. Really appreciate the owners' suggestions on spots to visit in the area. They gave us detailed directions and a map, and lent us torches to go for a night walk and see the glowworms outside the caves (for free!). Would absolutely stay again

Literally everything! From start to finish. This was the start of our stay in New Zealand as we had travelled from Singapore and then Australia. We were ready to relax and unwind. If you want to stay somewhere with amazing views and the amenities you need then this is your place!

Helen and John were so welcoming, friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was delicious, I highly recommend the Waitomo eggs - you will be blown away by how delicious they are. Gorgeous view from our room, could watch the sunset go down with a beer in hand. Perfectly situated close to the town, you can stroll to the grocers and out for dinner. Very powerful shower, air con in the room and a comfortable bed. Cannot recommend this place more. I will be coming back and booking in with Helen and John.

Go feed the lambs, play tennis, do your laundry, use the cleanest and most spacious kitchen to bake pizza and bread (no joke, we did that as they have everything, even cheese knives!). Don’t just stay for the caves, stay a little longer as it’s such a lovely, calming place!

So peaceful. I've always liked city life but maybe living on a farm is the way to go! Loved all the animals and watching the cows from my bed. Good bed and the cabin was cosy.

Spent one night in a 3bed cabin and its what discription says. Clean cabin, clean beds. Second night me and my 2 kids spent the night in the cottage house. This is perfect for families. Cute cottage. Clean and has a beautiful view from the deck.

    We booked an excursion with The Legendary Black Water...

    We booked an excursion with The Legendary Black Water Rafting Experience Waitomo Caves and it was amazing! Our guides, Garret & Alicia, were fun, helpful, informative, and made sure were were safe in the cave & the water; this is is a must do! They take pictures for you because it would be impossible to float in a tube & take pictures yourself.

    I enjoyed the peacefulness of the countryside.

    I enjoyed the peacefulness of the countryside. The have a small kitchen, with gas oven cooker, fridge. There are two bedrooms. Double bed. and the other has bunks. The shower is very small. Big outdoor bathtub! We stayed there as we visited Waitomo Caves the next day. We bought our own food to cook.

    Our tour of the caves with a local guide was great.

    Our tour of the caves with a local guide was great. It made all the difference that it was a local Māori guide telling us the historical story of the caves and those that first offered it for viewing. Our guide was funny and informative. The walkways were well lit and we felt safe the whole way round. Our grandchildren 11yrs and 8yrs loved the boat trip in the dark and were mesmerised by all the glow-worms.

    On this trip we went with Spellbound Cave Explorer.

    On this trip we went with Spellbound Cave Explorer. Went to two caves the first, after a short walkthrough bush we entered the cave and then got into a rubber raft where we were pulled along the underground stream , looking up at the ceiling it was covered with glow-worms. Very pretty & fascinating. After a coffee break we went into the second cave where we saw lots of stalagmites and stalactites and even the bones of an ancient extinct bird, the Moa. The guide was very knowledgeable and told us how the rock formations were formed. An excellent tour.
