The prefect cottage amongst native bush available for rental from 6 to 18 months. Fully self contained and furnished with all kitchen amenities, a washing machine and full deck with sunny outdoor living, heat pump and a bonus in summer all windows have insect screens. Just bring your linen.
This cottage would suit a couple or a business person here on contract. We are looking for a person who is a cat lover, more details will be discussed.
In a very quiet residential neighbourhood the home and cottage is on a big section with many trees are surrounding the property, it feels like you are in native bush listening to the birds singing. Even though you are next to a home (which will also be rented for the next 6 months) you have your own private driveway and outside space, a full size deck with outdoor furniture and barbecue, the ambiance is truly great. The bonus is you are within walking distance of town 1km or a 7 minute walk into Taupo central. Weekends you will be close to mountain bike trails and Huka Falls for the walkers.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
