Unique Holiday Location

"The peace of countryside in the city"

Cosy Cottage International Holiday Park is in a very quiet location. Situated in a residential area away from the main roads, we enjoy "peace and quiet, free from traffic noise" rarely found elsewhere in the city. We are bounded by open field with grazing horses. A riverbank suitable for Trout fishing, 2 residential dwellings and an undeveloped natural reserve with unique geothermal features. Discover sizzling thermal activity, boiling mud and the occasional sporadic Geyser. A short 2 minute walk through the reserve brings you to an exclusive private white sand beach on the Rotorua Lakeshore. Dig in the sand here and create your own natural hot pool on the edge of the lake, spades available from our office. The Utuhina Trout stream flows into the lake here, catch your trout at the stream mouth! Cook it in the Hangi oven!

We are only 3 minutes drive from the city centre, Restaurants and shops.
Just a five minute walk to a 24 hour supermarket, liquor store and Take aways.
Centrally located we are less than 10 minutes by car from most major tourist attractions.

All trips and tours Pick up from Cosy Cottage International Holiday Park at no extra cost.
