- "We arrived late in the day, and the fire had been lit for us so the house was cozy and inviting. The beds are good, the water pressure is on point and the place is supplied with everything you could think of. It's only a short 7min drive (if that) back into central Taupo, the Landing and the new Countdown are very close and if you're heading to the mountain, you're in the right side of town to head down there. This is a great spot and one we will be back to for our next trip."

- "Lovely relaxing house, well organised and set out. The bush setting is beautiful. The dogs next door bark a lot and we found they woke us up in the morning" - "Taupo Bliss was delightful. It had everything one could want with loads of space for two couples to have privacy as well as lots of roomy space to gather together for meals and relaxation. The location is perfect for all the attractions of Taupo region." - "We stayed for 5 nights as a family in winter. The weather wasn't great, so it was really good to have a gas fire (which initially didn't work but the Bookabach representative got fixed the evening we arrived - thank you!), heat pump (downstairs) and radiator (in master bedroom). The house is in a residential area, up on a hill, about a 30 min. walk into town or a 5 min. drive. Easy access to the lakeshore and all important points of interest. The view from the beautiful deck is spectacular, especially on a sunny day, and we felt like being surrounded by native bush. There was space under the deck for the bikes, the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed, beds comfortable and lots of different seating areas to withdraw, relax and read. The house is beautifully decorated, and oh so many books and some good CD's! The only thing one should be aware of is that there is no door separating the upstairs area from the downstairs bedroom (with own bathroom and sep. toilet). It worked well for us though. The downstairs bedroom is of generous size and great for kids/teenagers who enjoy having their own space. We would definitely recommend this house and would love to stay there again."

The Art House doubles as my personal art studio, located in a room off the deck. I kindly request to use the space from 11 am to 4 pm, Monday through Friday. During your stay, you will have full access to the house as I solely enter the studio through the deck. I will notify you in advance if I plan to use the studio during your stay. If you are interested, I welcome you to join me in the studio and observe my creative process. Alternatively, I can be flexible with your schedule and provide a quiet environment for you to relax undisturbed.
Other things to note
Furry friends are more than welcome to stay, and the garden is entirely fenced for their safety. Nonetheless, please note that I cannot be held responsible if your dogs manage to escape, especially if they are skilled jumpers who can clear the gate. I encourage you to inspect the photos or ask any relevant questions to ensure that the property is suitable for your canine companions.
To make your dog's stay comfortable, water bowls are provided, and I kindly ask that you check the backyard for any doggy deposits before your departure. Dog bags are also available to make this task easier. Additionally, there is a fantastic dog park located just a five-minute walk from the property.
