Stayed at the property with my family for my graduation and loved our stay there as it was a beautiful house inside and out! The host Jan was very accommodating and nice and we really appreciate that. Would choose to stay here again if my family is visiting again coming to Hamilton again.

Attending Kingi Tuheitia Tangi week
This was a place to stay for kaumatua while travelling daily to Turangawaewae. It was comfortable, just excellent. Jan was welcoming and kind, the place exceeded all expectations. A respite during a very busy and intense time.
Thank you Jan, your care and kindness was so appreciated.

Beautifully decorated with every need thought of
Jan has done an amazing job decorating and appointing the space. The kitchen had everything you’d think of needing and more. (Pasta maker and pasta drying rack?!) She even contacted us ahead to find out our favorite bread and provided some basics and treats for the fridge and pantry. The space is full of light. The patio is wonderful. It’s a 15 minute walk to every manner of restaurant on Victoria St when you want to eat out. We would have loved to move in and call it home. Definitely recommend! Centrally located (45 -90 minutes) to Hobbiton, Rotorua and Glow Worm & other caves.

Fantastic Place To Stay
I have stayed in a number of Book a Bach properties over the years but this was the best ever. The owner was fantastic, the house was amazing with all the little extra's I have never experienced before; there was milk, our preferred bread waiting with chocolates and chocolate biscuits even. I highly recommend this home and would definitely stay again.

Jan’s Hideaway 2 nights Jan 21,22 2024
I have been staying at VRBO properties for 25 years and Jan is the kind of owner that I really appreciate. She has pride of ownership and a sincere desire to help make your stay as comfortable as possible. Her house was immaculate, with a well stocked pantry.The layout is ideal for 2 couples travelling together. A third bedroom offers
even more room for extra guests. We made considerable use of the private garden for dining and relaxing. When you rent you have complete use of the upper floor. Two bedrooms and the living room overlook Jan’s front yard. The house is built into a hillside so when you step out at the rear of the house on the second level from the dining room, kitchen and master bedroom you are at “ground level”. The compete backyard area is fenced in and is all a private beautiful lush garden and deck. It has a dining area and sitting area complete with umbrella and chairs. Roughly 1200 square feet. I mention this unique layout because I did not realize how nice and functional it was when we booked. Definitely a big asset. I recommend this property and would stay again Brian from Orillia Ontario Canada
What a lovely place to stay for a quick two night trip to Hamilton. Jan was absolutely lovely, super welcoming and communicative. The house was tidy and beautiful with lots of windows to enjoy her beautiful garden. Also have to note, it was the best supplied kitchen I’ve ever encountered in a bookabach, every utensil and gadget one could ask for. Thanks Jan.
