The French Country House, Tauranga

I’ve never seen a more beautiful breakfast table. Our host, Lucas, was attentive, charming and informative. The grounds were immaculate. The views in every direction were stunning!

That we had to leave!

A magnificent French chateau style property in a quiet secluded location. Hosted by Lukas who is one of the most helpful people I have had the fortune to meet, this property is ideal for those seeking seclusion but is also accessible to good local restaurants and areas of natural beauty. Highly recommended. Five out of five stars!

the concept of having a home away from home is nstead of a booked room Lukas the host ensured we felt super comfortable at all times

nothing

* Great and hearthy breakfast * Super easy going and relaxing athmosphere * beatiful property * Very calm, quiet and safe * incredibly nice terrace and view * Rooms have great beds, spacy and very nice bathrooms

* Curtains could be a little bit darker for light sensitive people

Quiet, luxurious and easily accessible.

Everything was exceptional, the accommodation, the location and John was an amazing host.

This is a beautiful house in a lovely rural setting with the most glorious views over the countryside and the coast. Kay is a wonderful host who goes out of her way to make your stay memorable, recommending places to visit and restaurants for dinner. There are fresh flowers everywhere and the breakfast setting is exquisite. This has been our second visit to The French Country House and it certainly will not be the last.

Nothing

a unique experience, high ceilings , regal decor , private yet homely environment. Kay is the secret to the experience being so nice . from the welcome board with our names , to the canapés , the jazz music on the terrace , wine on the house and the amazing breakfast. didn’t want to go anywhere else

nothing comes to mind . if I try really hard , perhaps an aircon might be a good addition . but the airy surrounds made up for the slight heat and the fan was enough .

The French Country House is utter luxury, from the moment you step through the door everything has such a special feeling. The house itself is beautiful with it's large comfortable rooms for relaxing, surrounding gardens with uninterrupted views of Mount Maunganui, and it's romantic outdoor spaces for cosying up next to the open fire under the stars. Kay's attention to detail and thoughtfulness is outstanding - she thinks of absolutely everything, and goes above and beyond to welcome and truly spoil you. The bed was super soft and melty, and the bath tub was to be enjoyed with candles, rose petals and heart shaped chocolates. The breakfast was delicious - fresh, plentiful and made with love. Billy was also a delight to have around, greeting us each day with his puppy dog eyes, his teddies and lots of cuddles.

There was nothing at all that we didn't love.
