Location: 5 out of 5. The estate is located at the highest part of the mountain in Lake Taupo. You can enjoy the beautiful sunrise, sunset and even stargazing right outside of the room. My wife and I even managed to catch Elon Musk's Starlink in action! Host: Fantastic hosts. Michelle and Peter are very friendly. Peter make great breakfast. 👍 Peter also brought us around the farm to feed the sheeps, cows and deers. The animals were super friendly and we were able to come up close with them. We had the best farmstay ever! We would highly recommend staying at Hilltop Whakaipo Estate for a minimum of 2 nights for the best farm stay experience.

The house was spacious and clean and very welcoming. The kids had enough space and things to do. It was warm enough for a cold night as well. The well equipped kitchen helped for a nice dinner and breakfast for all 8 of us. We stayed only a night but had a great time here. Would definitely stay again if travelling as more than one family.
