Kowhai Cottage Lake Taupō

Kowhai Cottage Lake Taupō Welcome to Kowhai Cottage! Our centrally located home is a 5-minute walk into town and 10 minute walk to the Lake. Our home oozes character!

Featuring wooden floorboards throughout & wood burner for those chilly nights. The house is fully fenced, so it's perfect for pets. Enjoy dining alfresco on our back deck or simply relax on the daybed on our front deck with a glass of wine and take in the views!

Fun fact about me: I don’t watch TV. But apparently I will pay for an entire streaming service just to watch Big Little Lies for the third time. Tonight’s the night. I’m excited 👀

I pour myself a stiff drink, sit down, grab the remote ready for series 1. episode 1.

Aaaand Power cut.

Strong start 😑

ps: if you haven’t seen it, run don’t walk. It’s on HBO max 😉

Have you seen the price of literally EVERYTHING lately 🥹

It’s prompted us to make a questionable financial decision and make a slightly reckless offer…

STAY 3 NIGHTS FOR THE PRICE OF 2 DURING JUNE! Plus no Airbnb fees if you book direct.

Tag your dog loving friends who deserve a break in Taupó. And DM us to book.

Quick.

Before I change my mind 😬




Ps: there will be a couple of T&C’s. We just need to work them out first so standby 🏡

Kowhai Cottage had underfloor insulation installed today so naturally I took a photo to celebrate. *special thanks to ai for giving me the body of a much much younger & slimmer woman without me even asking 🤣

Seriously though…the house feels way warmer! You’re gonna love it 😉

Trigger warning: If you don’t like swearing, you should scroll now.

If you’re still here, May is the quietest month of the year for Airbnb in Taupō so we’re using this time to do some maintenance around the house. Before & Afters incoming..enjoy 😬

I know a video of our sheets hanging on the line will not be lost on some of you 😂 Not gonna lie, I was hoping this storm had missed Taupō. 2 minutes before I recorded this, there was absolutely no breeze whatsoever and then within 5 minutes - BAM💥

Stay safe wherever you are 🫶
