Sweet Guesthouse

Tucked away from the road is a private 1 bedroom studio in sunny Waitara.
With off-street parking, a full kitchen and washing machine, it is a home base for travellers. Set in a small garden with a sunny patio to make the most of fine weather. A very comfy queen bed and huge single bed sized sofa make this a cozy place to relax.
Good access to Mt Taranaki and hiking trails. New Plymouth city is 15 minutes away for events, dining and entertainment.
