An amazing time spent by all. The location is amazing with mountain views and the back yard stream. The home is comfortable and inviting. The fireplace was a hit coming from sunny Queensland. Will definitely be back

Even better than expected

Amazing property, from the outlook over a stream to the views of Mt Taranaki. Property was very clean, well equipt, peaceful and only 10 mins drive to the centre of town. Would have loved to stay longer!

Lived up to it's name.

Serenity Lodge lived up to its name and gave our three generational family a holiday we all treasured. Yes, it was immaculate, large and provided thoroughly modern kitchen, bathrooms and many other amenities. However, some of our fondest memories involved deck time with grandchildren while they shared their adventures, taking in the view of the mountain and making the most of the beautiful stream at the bottom of the property. This was definitely the ‘babbling brook’ to lull you to sleep, provide boulders for children to clamber over, a small swimming space and a selection of rocks which on examination illustrated the volcanic nature of the New Plymouth area. A beautiful property.

The location is stunning, the river and bush even more beautiful than the photographs; very comfortable and well-equipped home; perfect place from which to visit the Taranaki gardens.
