INTRODUCING
Hi, Don and I, married with 4 adult sons,and now 10 grandchildren, have grown our family on our one acre of country bliss, facing the Te Aroha Mountain where hot mineral spas and various walking and mountain bike tracks delight those who explore the area. We are within 8 minutes drive of two small country towns and very central to main attractions eg 1 hour to coast,Mount Maunganui, Thames, Raglan also Matamata with Hobbiton as the main attraction and Rotorua with the geyserland and Maori village/concerts. The countryside is dotted withdairy cows, alpacas, sheep and grazing beef stock. Our home is a substantial twostorey villa, with 4 bedrooms/2 bathrooms/2 living areas with wood fire/ country style kitchen and outdoor living with spa andpool surrounded by garden and views to the mountain. We welcome suggestions re holiday destinations and can also offer upstairs accomodation B & B style, while we are at home. We have two adorable small dogs - who are part of the family also chickens providing free range eggs for your breakfast.
