Ashpit Place offers bed and breakfast accommodation in a quiet rural setting overlooking Lake Rerewhakaaitu surrounded by dairy farms and forestry. Relax in your room or on the deck with panoramic views of Lake Rerewhakaaitu and Mt Tarawera. Forestry and farming vistas, from the lounge and dining areas with some of the best sunsets in the world. The boundaries of the property are on the lake edge, where you can walk or fish at your leisure.

Ashpit Place is within close proximity to Waiotapu Thermal Wonderland and also Waimangu Thermal Reserve, both of which I would recommend a visit. We are on the way to Lake Waikaremoana if you are into tramping in the Whirinaki National Park and Waikite Thermal Pools are just over the hill.
Rotorua is a 30 minute drive where you can use the best mountainbike trails in the world and find restaurants for culinary delights,and Waikite Thermal Pools for a hot soak at the end of the day, they also do meals. But if you would like to have dinner with us then let me know.

We had 2 wonderful days with Alison & Scott in their beautiful bungalow; their welcome was warm and genuine. Our bedroom and ensuite were spotless and the attention to detail was excellent with home made cake and biscuits in our room. Our evening meals with them were very jolly and all the food was delicious. We left feeling totally relaxed and will definitely recommend Ashpit Place to friends visiting that area of New Zealand.
