The Ward's Guest House is situated in two acres of garden bordered on one side by the famous Ngongotaha Stream and fronting onto Lake Rotorua. Of brick construction this near new cottage is set privately away from the hosts home and seconds away from the lakefront and stream.

The two bedrooms, full laundry facilities, well equipped kitchen including dishwasher, full size dining table and chairs and extensive garden make it a great spot. There is good use of native timbers and modern amenities such as TV, sound system and heating. The theme of the décor is, of course, hunting and fishing. Continental breakfast is complimentary along with tea, coffee and juice.

Guests can fish in the river or the lake. To fish in the river you have to stagger 30 yards! To fish the stream mouth it is a much more strenuous 50 yard walk through the garden! Simon, the Ward's youngest son has a 13.5 lb Brown trout caught in the stream.

The guest house is ideally situated for exploring the Rotorua area, whether one is a fisherman, golfer, gardner or general tourist. It is handy to Rotorua, but far enough away as to avoid the sulphur smell.
