    It was warm and cosy with the whole house being heated by the continuous hot water heaters around the house, even in the laundry and the garage. We had a pleasant stay

    Great stay for our mountain bike tripWe stayed here for a mountain biking weekend and it was perfect for what we needed. The house was clean, comfortable, and well set up, with plenty of space for all our gear. The dedicated garage for bike storage was a huge bonus, and having tools available made it easy to sort out any quick tweaks before hitting the trails.The beds were comfy after long days riding, and the kitchen had everything we needed for cooking meals. Location was ideal — quiet, convenient, and close to the trails and town. Communication with the host was smooth and responsive, making the whole stay stress-free.Would definitely stay here again for our next trip. Highly recommend!

    Property clean with lots of beds and clean linens. Only one toilet and shower in the house, then there is one toilet in the garage and a shower in a separate laundry room (which we found when we were checking out). Well appointed kitchen and plenty of space for eating, sleeping, meeting.

    We were a group of 3 adults & 2 tweens. Bedrooms were all nicely set up. The 4th bedroom had 4 single beds & was large & perfect for the kids also having a large tv & desk space.The lounge was big with very comfortable seating. The kitchen had everything we needed & the laundry was handy also having the 2nd shower. The main bathroom is a little dated but was still good, it has a seperate toilet with hand basin & the 2nd toilet is in the garage which works great being next to spa pool & entertaining areas. A cafe, bakery & shop is a short 5min walk & it’s a quiet neighborhood.

    We had a great time staying at Tilsley Inn! Its really good to have a place where the whole family can stay together. We were close to all the activities in Rotorua and able to come back in between visiting different places to relax, cook, eat, have a spa and totally recharge. Excellent!
