Ruapehu Retreat is a spacious and self-catering holiday home situated in National Park. It is set in a convenient location for guests to explore the Tongariro National Park and wider Ruapehu region. The accommodation is 41 km from Turangi.

Fantastic location. The partial Mountain View allowed easy monitoring of the best weather moments for hiking. High quality sheets on the bed and bathroom was clean with good water pressure and on demand hot water. Large movie library and comfortable living room furniture that was great for waiting out bad weather.

Located in National Park, within 22 km of Whakapapa, National Park Home is an accommodation offering garden views. The air-conditioned accommodation is 16 km from Mount Ruapehu, and guests can benefit from private parking available on site and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is set 16 km from Taranaki Falls.

We love that the accommodation is centrally located in National Park village (not that the village is big). Graeme & Lynley also sent us clear instructions how to get into the house all by ourselves, which was really convenient as we travelled after work and reached there quite late in the evening. Everything in the accommodation really makes us feel like "home". There were even kitchen staples that we could use to cook our meals! Love it!

    I liked the room - it was cosy and spacious. Lodge is nice and has this "mountain touch". The kitchen was great and perfectly equipped. The beds were super comfortable. Howard's Lodge is the best place when you plan to visit Tongariro. Communication with personnel was ok even though we haven't met anyone.l :D
