Peaceful, perfect home base
Rita’s cottage far exceeded expectations. Peaceful, spotless, well furnished with all the comforts of home. Set well back from the main road in a gated cluster of homes, it was the perfect location for seeing all the sights that the Rotorua has to offer. Beatrice is lovely to deal with, always prompt in responding. She was on site to welcome us with lovely gifts of homemade jelly, honey, soap, chocolates. We would 100% stay at Rita’s cottage again!

Can I rate this place more than 5 stars!
We loved staying here for 9nights, it was both close and far enough from Rotorua. A very well maintained, neat and tidy place with a real country feel.The host were so lovely to share their produce and trust their visitors to take care of their place. It is very well equipped with all the luxuries of home and more. Thank you Beatrice for your hospitality.
