The Space:

An older character bungalow with a few quirks, plus a separate sleep-out - a no-fuss, great-value base for a big group who want plenty of room, a central spot and somewhere they can bring the dog. It won't win any design awards, but the location is hard to beat, and there's space for everyone.



The main house has an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, three double rooms and a bunk room. Heating is via a heat pump in the lounge and a gas fire in the living room. The sleep-out is a studio-style space with a queen bed, a set of single bunk beds and a lounge suite, its own toilet and shower, and its own heat pump / air-con unit - pretty basic, but a handy extra space. There's WiFi in both the main house and the sleep-out.

The Neighborhood:

Mutts, MTBs & Mud Pools sits in the central suburb of Glenholme, with handy local shops just a 5-minute walk away - a dairy for the essentials, a great fish and chip shop, a café for your morning coffee, a boutique bakery, an organic wholefood store and a Chinese takeaway. Te Puia and the Whakarewarewa geothermal valley, with their geysers and bubbling mud pools, are only a few minutes down the road, the city centre and Polynesian Spa are 4 to 5 minutes by car, and the Redwoods trails are about 7 - so you're close to just about everything.



Getting Around:

A car is easiest, and there's plenty of on-site parking plus a double garage. By car, Te Puia and the geothermal valley are about 3 minutes away, the city centre 4, Polynesian Spa 5, and the Redwoods around 7. Skyline, Zorb and Rotorua Airport are all roughly 11 to 12 minutes. There are also bus stops nearby for getting into town.



Other Things to Note:

This is an older home with a few quirks - honest, comfortable and great value, rather than flash. It's pet-friendly (fees apply per pet), and there's a bike workshop and storage in the garage for the riders. WiFi is available in both the main house and the sleep-out. The sleep-out is pretty basic, but a handy extra space for a bigger group.
