Our place is great for couples, solo adventurers, families (with kids), and furry friends (pets). We are a 15-20 minute drive past the Waitomo Village so it pays to eat before you come up or bring supplies with you. There is a two element cook top and a microwave. The cottage is one room with a queen bed down and a small loft above that has two single mattresses in it. Cosy but cute. Each cottage has its own bathroom about 8 steps from the cottage. We would love you to come and share our little piece of paradise. The accommodation is nestled within a bush setting on top of a hill where you can see out over the whole central north Island. You even have your own grotto only meters from your door where you can sit quietly surrounded by a galaxy of Glow-worms. Enjoy the starry nights and peace and quiet of the country. You are more them welcome to wander around the farmland and enjoy the fantastic views, check out the Dab Chick Pond and beautiful native bush. Amazing views/Glowworms/Native bush/Caves/Black Water Rafting. If we are not going to be home there is still family around to help out if needed. Check in is from 3pm/ check out at 10am.

Te Tiro Cottage Two

Our family stayed in both cottages and the lotus tent on our journey through New Zealand and this was by far the most magical part of our trip! The view was spectacular, the host was so warm and friendly, and we got to walk around with all the sheep! I loved the quiet that let us focus on the sounds of nature. My daughter kept saying the fire pit made her want her guitar. “I it was a vibe.” What a great find!

Best Stay in NZ

We absolutely loved our short stay! Such a friendly host, and it had everything we needed. Despite the constant rain, we still loved the view and greatly enjoyed the private glowworm grotto.

Amazing Honeymoon Retreat

Our stay at TeTiro was the final leg of our 16day trip in north New Zealand. We found the stay to be the perfect wind down from all the activities but still situated in a spot for leisurely adventures to be had of the local scenic area and learn a bit of local history. The hosts were absolutely amazing, friendly and welcoming to their country paradise we loved so much. The facilities are cosy and peaceful to relax and enjoy the perfect views. The facilities were clean and comfortable, continental breakfast was more than enough and really a home away from home. The grotto was so delightful and really loved the glow worms as they made their little stars. I cannot recommend this stay enough my favourite stay in New Zealand.

Tiny gem in country paradise

What a fabulous spot!  We had a wonderful stay.  Everything we needed to enjoy time in Waitomo.  Travelled with 2 teenagers who were happy up in the loft.  Lovely table for us all to play boardgames around....And the Views!  Oh the absolutely heavenly views.  Warm, welcoming hosts.  We'll be back.  Thank you for hosting us.

Heavenly

Stunning location, a refreshing change from hotel rooms. We loved staying in the cottage and slept really because it was so cosy and comfortable. Thank you.
