Great location, away from the bigger towns yet conveniently located along the main highway, 1 - 1.5 hours away from Auckland airport or Rotorua.

John & Kay were very friendly and went out of their way to make their guests feel comfortable. 

Room and toilet (opted for the ensuite) was very clean, fresh and had good air circulation from the big windows facing the garden. The garden was beautifully done with nice native flora and bird sightings (tui & fantail).

Breakfast was fresh and healthy with fruit, muesli, yogurt and toast options.

By far the best place we stayed on our trip.

Excellent B&B

We have spent an extremely peaceful, relaxing and welcoming night at this homely B&B. It is set in a stunningly beautiful location, where you are surrounded by nature. The large windows and doors made you feel part of the natural environment, we woke early with the dawn chorus, and enjoyed watching the birds arguing and feeding on the lawn. We were made to feel very welcome, and spent the evening chatting with our hosts. Continental breakfast was tasty, at the time of our choice and of excellent quality. Our thanks go to Kay and John, who are lucky enough to live in this hidden treasure.

An oasis of calm

We have just spent 5 nights at Gully Retreat Karapiro and we had a wonderful stay. The room was lovely with a nice large bathroom with walk in shower. The bed was very comfy and the location is very peaceful allowing for a good night's sleep. Continental breakfast was quite adequate and the coffee very nice. Many great sites nearby all within 1 to 1.5 hours drive. Kay and John were great host who made us feel welcome and at home. They were also very helpful with advice on what to see and do. I believe that Gully Retreat Karapiro represents great value for money.

Great experience 

Booked by our travel company for 3 nights but we decided not to stay.
Host was unwelcoming and rude telling us brusquely to take our shoes off before entering house despite her walking in from the outside in bare feet. We felt very uncomfortable. 
After seeing the “do & don’t “ laminated sheet on the bedside table and realising that there was no private guest area  we decided that we did not want to stay and spoil what had been an amazing holiday.

This is not luxury accommodation.

Not luxury accommodation

We cancelled our room a week out from the date and they still took  all our money.
Don't book there.
We believe that normal hotel policy is a 24hour cancellation policy. Their policy puts travellers at great risk so its simply not worth the risk of staying there.

Cancellation policy is very dangerous

Me and a group of girls needed a place to stay for the night and stumbled upon Gully retreat B&B. The hosts were so kind and booked us to stay with them last minute! We were thrilled and had such a wonderful stay there. The Breakfast provided was the best breakfast we had in New Zealand!! It was beautiful displayed and so delicious we were so delighted. Had a wonderful time talking with our host in the evening. They were so wonderful and there home was beautiful!! Me and the group of girls that stayed there would highly recommended this place to anyone looking for a place to stay in the Karapiro area!!!

Beautiful stay with amazing hosts

Great location,  outstanding hosts assisting with loading and unloading our bikes and went out of the way to be helpful.
Definitely recommend. a bonus was the amazing garden full of Tui and other native flora. 


Waikato river Trail ride 

John and Kay were the perfect hosts of this lovely b&b right off the highway and about 20 minutes from both Cambridge town and the LOTR Hobbiton park.  I may have lucked out with my wonderful co-guests, but great conversation and fantastic grounds made this place a home run.  John in particular obviously loves guests and loves to share his views of politics and the local area.  I just wish the weather was a bit better while I was there (raining mostly).  I will certainly return, perhaps bringing my daughter and her soon to be husband.

made some new friends and promised to return

Recently had occasion to attend a national sporting event in Cambridge. Finding a booking close was difficult, but we did find this delightful property some 12kms out of town. 
And weren't we glad we did! Tucked away just off the main highway but in a quiet no exit road surrounded by trees and bush full of native birds, this is a quiet, clean and accessible haven.
Our hosts made us most welcome but did leave us space for quiet time etc.
Would we book again - In a flash! Better value and comfort than the usual accommodation options. Plenty of sightseeing opportunities abound in relative closeness to this property. And the owners were a font of knowledge as they had personally experienced them all it seems.
Do put this on your list when next visiting the Waikato.
