Entspannen Sie im Mere Road Retreat, einer ruhigen Oase nahe dem See!

This is a private, sunny, peaceful and centrally located 3 bedroom home in Taupō. Enjoy 2 outdoor areas (one with an outdoor bath!). A fantastic location, you are a 7 min walk from the Lakefront, 20 min walk to town, 30 min walk to Two Mile Bay Sailing Club, 5 min walk to the Mole & Chicken Pub and 3 min from the local playground. The house has 2 x Queen beds and 1 x King Single (with a single trundler bed underneath that can be set up on request).

Some of our favourite things to do in Taupō include....

- Walking / Hiking - A gentle walk along the Great Lake Pathway (Lion's Walk) offers spectacular views across Lake Taupo to the peaks of Mt Tongariro, Mt Ngauruhoe and Mt Ruapehu. A hike up Mt Tauhara requires more energy but you'll be rewarded with 360 degree views. Otherwise a short drive to spa park and then take a 120 minute (return) walk to Huka Falls.
- Market Central - Every Sunday, 9am - 1pm at Northcroft Reserve. Live music, coffee, food and 90+ stalls
- An evening swim is just a 5-7 minute walk down Mere Road to the lakes edge. If you’d like to soak in the hot water before plunging into the cold, head left along the lakes edge for another minute or so to one of the local hot springs
- The Two Mile Bay Sailing Club is Taupō’s lakefront local. Only 2km from Mere Road retreat, you can head there for morning coffee, an easy lunch, dinner or drinks. Enjoy live music every Thursday, Friday and Sunday from 5.30pm
- The Mole & Chicken is just 450 metres up around the corner (via Henry Hill and Rokino Roads). A great spot for a family dinner, drinks with a view, watch sports on the big screen or enjoy views from the deck. During winter the fire will be blazing.
- Coffee!! Replete Cafe & Store or Sacred Grounds are our go-to’s. If you want to grab a coffee on the go or while you are out walking then the Steaming Bean coffee cart on the Lakes edge is just around the corner (On Lake Terrace between Mere and Pataka Roads).
