This B&B is in a very new house, located just 3 min drive from Taupo town. It is quiet with nice views on the forest (no lake views, but that is ok). We booked the studio room for 2 nights. It has a kitchenette, ok for small cooking, with microwave and electrical cooking pan. Just a pity it has no...

Most studio guests haven't wanted more cooking facilities than we provide, however we are considering adding a hot plate to give more flexibility to the existing arrangements. The main reason we have not encouraged more cooking is that there is as yet no extractor fan in the kitchenette.

Rive Gauche was a real find. Our hosts, Lynne and Jim were friendly and hospitable and we felt very much at home in their lovely B&B. The rooms are tastefully appointed, extremely comfortable and offer stunning views of the private vineyard. Lynne provided a delicious breakfast. Lynne and Jim kindly offered us the use of their living area to us...

Our aim is to provide a peaceful retreat in our semi-rural location. Ongoing development of our one hectare of grounds and vineyard takes considerable time and effort, and your stay unfortunately coincided with landscaping work being carried out at street level. We are sorry for any resulting inconvenience. Dust is a problem with Taupo's pumice soil type until lawns and...

Lynne could not have been more welcoming to her beautiful home in Taupo. We stayed in the apartment for two nights and enjoyed the very modern, comfortable decor, flat screen, A/C, private patio and top of the line fixtures and fittings. Our stay could not have been more enjoyable, waking to the beautiful view over the vineyard towards the river,...

Loved this B & B. The rooms were lovely, clean and large. We were 2 couples and in addition to our rooms they provided a lounge for us to spread out in if we wished. The location was perfect--about a 3 minute drive from town and a short hiking distance to Huka Falls. Our hosts were knowledgeable about the area...

We stayed for two night at the beginning of March. The room and bed and linens and hosts were fantastic. We had the downstairs room which is almost a complete house in itself. Witha small courtyard looking over the newly planted vineyard towards the river. We had some ggod walks down by the river to the falls and back again....

for somewhere to really relax and feel looked after you can't go past this B&B.

We stayed two nights at Rive Gauche, just outside Taupo, during a self-drive tour of NZ. The house is very spacious and stylish, on a 2-acre plot, with a landscaped garden and its own vines. Our room was immaculate; our well-travelled hosts - Lynne and Jim - were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed chatting with them and getting local...
