About
Doolan's Country Retreat, on North Island, sits at 165 Dalbeth Road, Ngongotaha, Rotorua 3072, New Zealand, a quiet address on the edge of Rotorua. First-time visitors should expect a guest house setting in a country location rather than a city-centre property. The retreat's position near Ngongotaha places it within easy reach of Rotorua's town centre and the wider Bay of Plenty region.
Guests have given Doolan's Country Retreat a 5 out of 5 average across 40 reviews, a record that reflects consistent satisfaction among those who stay. The guest house operates from its Dalbeth Road base, and its website at http://www.doolanscountryretreat.co.nz/ provides further reference. Travellers heading to the retreat from Auckland, Hamilton or Tauranga will find Rotorua connected by the main road network, while Taupo and Napier sit further along the same routes.
Wellington, on the southern end of North Island, is the country's capital, and the retreat's Rotorua location sits roughly midway between Auckland and Wellington on the island's main touring routes. The property's Ngongotaha setting places it on the north-western side of Rotorua, close to the town and its surrounding countryside.
English is the main language across New Zealand and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names appear on signs throughout the region. Native birds such as tūī and kererū are common in the country's gardens and bush, and dolphins and fur seals are seen around the coast.
