My sister and I visited Rotorua in August of this year. We had booked Ferntree Cottage from reviews on Trip Advisor and were not disappointed! The cottage is in a very nice neighborhood and only a stones throw from the Lake. The yard and gardens are lovely. Val and Geoff have gone to great lengths to make the Garden Room... more

Despite arriving rather later than planned and for one night only because of other travel commitments, we were warmly welcomed by Val and provided with all the information necessary to make the most of our short stay. She and Geoff kindly booked the Maori Cultural Evening for us and we enjoyed drinks and hors d'oeuvres with them both beforehand. As... more

We visited NZ recently and stayed in Rotorua for one night. We chose this accommodation based on the great reviews we had read previously on Tripadvisor.

Val and Geoff were very welcoming hosts for our 2 day stay at their B&B. Breakfasts were splendid, and they helped us plan our visit to Rotorua - they even called to make some reservations for us.

We thoroughly enjoyed our two nights at the Ferntree. The Garden Room was wonderful (as was the garden!), clean and private. Val and Geoff were very warm, generous and helpful with our stay. Val even made us a banana smoothie for breakfast since we didn't drink tea or coffee - a very special touch! The breakfasts overall were fantastic!! www.ferntreecottage.co.nz more

The hot tub was the icing on the... more

Lovely B&B. Very friendly hosts and superb spread for breakfast. This was our last stop in NZ and really sent us on our way in style. Even used the hot-tub for a soak to unwind. Happy to recommend it to anyone. more
