The house layout was great! A couple of small niggles that we’ve sent to the owner, but I’m sure they’ll be addressed before the next visitor. Bring extra blankets, as it can get cold!

Great home for lots of people, 2 bathrooms, 2 lounges and a small drying room. Short 20min drive to Whakapapa. Had everything we needed. We also got a late check out which was brilliant as it was day light savings weekend! (No linen included - BYO or pay extra). We would stay again!

Relaxing stay
Had a great time relaxing here over the weekend, location was perfect for those of was wanting a trip up the mountain and the spa was there for those who wanted to stay in the warmth. The only issue we had was bookabatch not informing us of the code to access the house, we had to call the help centre for crucial info. Wasnt a dealbreaker though, we will definitely stay again given the chamce.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a positive review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and we hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again in the future. Thanks again for choosing to stay with us!
We enjoyed the two spaces and five bedrooms for the family and a couple of little children. The only downside was that the washing machine was not working. It would fill with water and empty but not agitate or spin. We had been away for a week so were keen to catch up with our washing, so this was disappointing. Otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the well appointed amenities.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the space and amenities for your family stay. We’re sorry the washing machine wasn’t working during your visit and understand how inconvenient that must have been. The owner is replacing the machine to ensure this is resolved for future guests. We’d love to welcome you back again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Nash. Having two separate wings of the house, including 2 living areas and bathrooms, meant that we never had to worry about running out of space. The location was a fantastic base for the Tama Lakes Walk and the following day we enjoyed relaxing in the spa, as well as playing the PS2 - which was very nostalgic for us 90s babies. The house is easy to heat with a modern wood burner and ventilation system. We would absolutely stay here again!
We were three generations and The Nash worked very well. Two families with children were able to be one in each 'wing' which was great for bedtime and mornings. All of us enjoyed spa times, in various configurations. We could all fit around the table to eat, and the two living areas enabled different play and chatting spaces. The house was cosy and very well-equipped.
Great home for two families to share with two bedroom wings each having a bathroom. The spa was such a treat to come home to after a day on the mountain.

The Nash was a fantastic place to stay for our group and had heaps of room with the extra lounge area. Keryn and Ken were super helpful and went above and beyond to help sort out a couple of items we had left behind.

Great location and size property.
Great location and size property. Excellent for two families. Drying room didn't work though and no drier. Needed to go to Ohakune to use drier. Kitchen could do with a few more items to help feed a crowd, e.g. electric frypan or large frypan, large pots. We are used to having a few staples available e.g. oil, flour, rice. We usually leave more than we use. But nothing in this place at all apart from salt and pepper.
