Amazing views 360° around the house. Super friendly hosts who gave good recommendations on things to do around New Plymouth. Very nice with a warm bath after having hiked up the mountain. Nice, warm room even in winter and everything you need to make Food etc.

The views were great, bathroom and toilets were fantastic. Had everything we need.
Wow!! What an incredible spot! If you want views of the mountain and sunset, you’re going to be pleasantly surprised here!
Great location with absolutely stunning views. Very comfortable stay.
The location was excellent, quiet and peaceful.
There was nothing we didn’t like.
First rate. Wonderful host. Location outstanding.
Included breakfast was limited to cereal and coffee only.
Everything! The views were amazing, mountain on one side, sea on the other. Beautiful spacious bathroom, comfortable bed and everything you could need for your stay. Roslynn was excellent host, very friendly and helpful.
Nothing, wanted to stay longer!
Excellent in every way. Views to die for
All good

Absolutely lovely apartment with a view to die for (when the weather is clear). Highly recommended.
There is nothing to say here, except the hill is very steep (but the property name sort of clues you into this!)
The best Bed and Breakfast we stayed in NZ North Island. Super clean, spacious and well equipped room overlooking Mt Egmont National Park on the left and the ocean on the right. The ensuite bath is bigger than my bedroom in my country! The host is lovely and amiable and truly takes pride in taking care of her place. We love it so much that we didn't want to leave.
Absolutely nothing.

Amazing views!!
Exceptional Location, Unbelievable Views, Large Apartment, Obiging Hosts (Rossyln & David) , Large Heated Tiiled Bathroom Floor and Private Outdoor Area. Snow covered peak of Mt. Egmont in the distance was incredible. You would be crazy not to book this incredible self contained apartment !
Having to leave such a beautiful peaceful place.
Everything! The panoramic views from our room are out of this world! The room is large, warm and super comfortable.

The view was amazing. Very clean and tidy. Lots of nice details. Very comfy bed.
No fully equiped kitchen with stove. But still options for meal preparation.
Beautifully presented very clean room with the most gorgeous bathroom. The view was stunning with Mt Taranaki, green countryside and the ocean in the distance right there to be enjoyed from the room which was such a treat after a stormy night on our first night. Good communication with clear instructions for entry. I'd definitely stay again.
We were there on a very stormy night and the wind, thunder and lightning were frightening on top of the hill. We went out for dinner and found the steep driveway hard to navigate in the fog. There wasn't any sensor lights at the top of the driveway so very dark walking from the car around to our room where lights finally came on. The included breakfast options of just Weetbix and cornflakes with milk and bananas were a bit limited. Some bread, butter and spreads to make toast too would have been good and maybe muesli. There was a toaster if you bring your own bread but when travelling on it's not practical to have to buy butter etc.
It would be difficult to top this place anywhere. Perched high for spectacular 360 views we loved this stay. Roslynn greeted us and gave a few tips on things to see and do. The separate rooms adjoining the main home were pristine and well equipped and breakfast cereal, etc were provided. New Plymouth is a lovely town with numerous golf courses and bush walks under the volcano. Highly recommend!
Very modern, loved the shower, great location.
Not a big deal but maybe the ability to use (your own) streaming services on the TV.
The accomodation was one of the best we’ve stayed at.. it was very modern and spotlessly clean. It had amazing views from the mountain to the sea and gorgeous countryside. The owners were very friendly
Nothing.. all good
The whole apartment is spotless and modern, with everything you need. The views are amazing and it’s a very private location with easy access (10 mins in a car) to town.
Nothing!
This location is one of the most breathtakingly beautiful places! Highly recommend this stay to anyone and would have loved to stay longer.

The quietness and view
Very lovely accommodation, best view ever from a bath. Would definitely stay again if in the area
Impeccable accommodation, high standards, the views amazing, a truly luxurious experience, very private & peaceful stay
There was nothing we didn't like
Fantastic view from the house’s perch on top of the hill of the surrounding countryside including Mt Taranaki when he pops out from the clouds. Very peaceful for resting yet close (by car) to eateries and New Plymouth. The owners are very welcoming and helpful hosts.
Nothing. The listing is very accurate.
A lovely quiet spot with beautiful views of the mountain

The location is the top selling point. Excellent views of the ocean and Mt Taranaki. The unit is also top notch.
The breakfast could have been better. Some fruits and bread and jam or cheese would have made it much better. Also, the cereal could have been a bit better than plain corn flakes and light muesli.
Perfect stay. Lovely house and view.
Nothing

Oh my goodness. First of all. We were blown away with the breathtaking views that we had from the Studio apartment. All areas of the Studio were exceptionally clean, bed was superb comfortable and the bathroom was immaculate. As we had stayed in several stays across the North Island, we rated this one the highest.

Great communication with host. Amazing views. Lovely, clean, spacious and modern . Well equipped.
A better bed would have enhanced the stay.
The place has amazing views. Very comfortable and inviting atmosphere. The owners were kind and supportive during the cyclone "Gabriel" and made sure we are safe and well looked after. Their hospitality went above and beyond our expectations.
Magnificent views of Taranaki. Very large bathroom. Our hosts gave us plenty of privacy.
Fantastic views from this very private, well appointed unit. The bathroom felt like a luxury spa. It was the best overall rental ever. We definitely hope to return.
The only improvement would be a bit more for breakfast - if it is advertised as included. Maybe add some yoghurt/fruit or a muffin.
The House on the Hill was absolutely perfect. The view was impeccable and the room was very clean. The hosts take so much pride in their place and it shows. Would definitely recommend for your stay in New Plymouth!
Beautiful place, spotlessly clean and amazing location. Highly recommend and will be staying again if we ever go back to New Plymouth.
Lovely views, private space New facilities We would definitely return if travelling to New Plymouth
