Great property just outside New Plymouth

Rosandra Retreat is a lovely self contained building beside the main building it is very roomy and has all the amenities. There is even a pool beside the main building that we could use. It is far enough out of town to be nice and quiet yet close enough to drive in 10 min

Superb stay for our family

Wonderful host, Sandra, welcomed us and offered milk (and the use of pool and spa). The unit is generously sized and fully equipped for us. Tasteful and quality furnishings. Super comfortable beds and linen. The heavy rain did not dampen our trip with Netflix, magazines and books. Beautiful and peaceful property. With just an easy 10-15min drive to NP centre. Small supermarket, pizza hut and couple of restaurants in Bell Block suburb for late night options.

Love this space, it was worth the drive, worth the money!

Just left on sunday... stayed for 5 nights with my little family ❤️ not Far from most attractions rhat we visited. I loved everything about it. Nothing to complain about. Beds were comfy, Netflix and YouTube on TV for kids, shower was nice and big. Microwave heats real fast 😂 Linen is definitely a Briscoe brand😂 pool was sooo good, kids loved it!! Everything was provided! Except food but they did have the basics oil, soy, salt & pepper, herbs 👌 Coffee? Maccona hef mere mmmmmmmmm 😂 So peaceful, quiet at night and the carpet is so comfy you can sleep on it 😂 Back yard area, more privacy.. beautiful layout. Bbq was nice and big so we cooked up pretty fast. Home owners offered to wash our clothes on our last night, but we endedup taking it with us. But service from the beautiful couple threwout was really good, they bought us new towels and didn't push us for used towels. They just kept us aware and let us be ❤️👌 Very welcoming🙏 Overall, awesome awesome. 5nights was not enough for me!! Definitely 5star rating! Definitely reccomend for all ages💓

Excellent stay!

This was a comfortable well kept base for our WOMAD weekend and very accurately described in the listing. Its a few kilometers out of town but once you are driving that's fine anyway. The entrance in and out onto a busy road is a little fraught but not impossible. Communication with Sandra was excellent and very helpful. We definitely recommend this stay.
