We loved our stay at Georges House and highly recommend

The stay was fantastic, perfect location in town but super quiet and the view from the house is amazing., We brought our dog with us and it is the best pet friendly rental with secure outdoor area. The house was superbly appointed and had absolutely everything we needed - the fire and plentiful supply of firewood was an absolute treat!

Lovely home in a five star location

This is perhaps one of the nicest holiday homes we have ever stayed in. Fantastic location, super clean and fully kitted out with everything you might need for a relaxing stay. Absolutely loved the view of the lake from the living area and the sunny & sheltered courtyard was a lovely spot for an afternoon drink. Lovely and responsible host - would love to stay again at some point. Mia & David

We had to make last minute changes to our trip due to a cyclone on the north island. Nikki was quick to respond. The apartment is clean with a very well stocked kitchen. Location is perfect only a few minutes to the lake and super markets within walking distance.
