Visting Rotorua? Looking for a great place to stay? Then come and stay with us




Our beautiful B & B is absolute lake edge and offers quality, well appointed accommodation. We are just a short drive out of Rotorua, far  enough away to be both tranquil and sulphur free and yet still within easy access to the host of attractions that Rotorua has to offer. Built in the 1920’s it enjoys extensive northern lake views to take full advantage of all day sunshine.

Whether you are looking for a relaxing hideaway, a romantic honeymoon location or a memorable base to take advantage of all there is to see and do in Rotorua, get great value for money, come and stay at The Lake House Bed and Breakfast. Go to our Pictures page and take a virtual tour now and see exactly what we have to offer.
Carol’s breakfasts are truly memorable, enjoy your choice of teas, coffee, freshly squeezed juice, cereals, yoghurt and fruit, followed by the hot dish of the day, and if you are still up for it, toast or croissants with a selection of homemade preserves. We only use free range eggs.
Being lakeside, all rooms in our Bed and Breakfast have outstanding views over Lake Rotorua to Mokoia Island and beyond, it will seem that the lake belongs just to you. There is a lovely walk along the lake edge to a wet lands area. The lake is very safe for swimming and for a closer look at the lake  feel free to make use of our Perception kayaks, buoyancy aids are provided. Relaxation is easy at The Lake House, lie on sun loungers in our beautiful garden or relax and unwind all year round in our our luxurious, purpose built spa room with en-suite shower and toilet facilities. Open up the bi-fold windows to fully enjoy the ambience of the lakeside setting.
