We had a great stay at River Farm Retreat. The place was really clean, comfy, and had plenty of space for everyone. The location was perfect for our rafting trip at Awastone, and we loved the beautiful walk nearby too. Everything was well set up and made for a really easy, relaxing stay. Would definitely stay again!

Unfortunately the unit we stayed in was infested with ants which were in the bathroom, kitchen and bedroom. We awoke to find them in our beds and crawling all over us. Most unpleasant experience. I advised the manager but he didn't really apologise and I believe he was aware of the situation. His response was that he would need to get a pest controller in. I felt he didn't believe us, but we showed the cleaners and they were shockewd.

Taihape has a captive client base as everyone has to travel through there. McDonald's doesn't open till 10am for breakfast. There are various degrees or quality of food outlets. There is a good cheap fuel outlet which I think is Waitomo. We were directed to either subway or the roast shop beside it. The roast shop smelt heavily of cigarette smoke so we opted for subway which was clean and tidy. Taihape could do with more quality cafes. I go through often and normally target the army museum as my stop off point as the food is quality and predictable. Taihape needs to upgrade its overall image of food outlets to cause more people to want to stop there.

Great resting place on our journey South and then again on our way North. We enjoyed being able to walk around the town and loved our time in the Brown Sugar Cafe. There were a great selection of shops to interest all and Taihape is in close proximity to enjoy many Rangitikei activities.

It was great to be staying at a rural B&B in such an attractive location. The host Leah was very welcoming and has obviously added personal touches of her own. Home baking and preserves are always welcome! We would love to return for a longer stay

Taihape is a quaint quiet country town.

Taihape is a quaint quiet country town. The locals are a friendly lot and like to have a chat. I didn’t venture out much during my 2 days there but when I did,it was relatively easier to find my way around. The only disappointment I had was there was only one takeaways open in the afternoon/evening.(Chinese),fortunately New Worlds is handy.

It was a great place to stop for the night.

It was a great place to stop for the night. We had takeaways for dinner. Visited the giant gumboot at night - the spotlights were on and the kids loved it. We had breakfast at Brown Sugar, which was nice. Then we were on our way to the rest of our holiday.

Not much to look at exterior but beautifully renovated homely interior. Everything we needed for an overnight stay. Appreciated the owners thoughtfulness on putting heater on prior to our arrival. Great quality bed linen, electric blanket and hot water bottle. Very special to have sheep and fallow deer just outside. Very quiet. Be aware that you’re a few kms away from Taihape so be organised with food

We got the same room on our return to Gretna hotel Taihape. Excellent. Because it was Good Friday and it was not open, I got a phone call how to get in even though it was all sorted when we sayed on 15th April 2025. That in itself goes to show they may not be at work, staff member Guest comes 1st.

This is a spacious well maintained motel. The bed was comfortable and there was a good shower. For a studio unit there was a well equipped kitchen. The property is within a few minutes walk of supermarkets, cafes and hotel. A very comfortable place to stay.
