Tongariro River Cottage
Comfortable well equipped older style kiwi bach ready for trout fisher people and the like. Lovely views and with the world famous Tongariro River just across the road it is also the perfect spot for the many adventures in the central north island like tramping, mountain bike trails, river rafting, hunting and a half hour drive to snow skiing and/or the fabulous Tongariro crossing. Or book a shuttle to the crossing who will pick up from the door or make the easy 10 minute walk to town centre where the shuttles leaves. In town there is supermarkets, bar restaurants, cafes and a variety of other shops. N.B the bach is located above SH1 so there is road noise!
