BOOK NOW FOR LABOUR WEEKEND


Winter-itis? 

Me too....

Don't you wish you could escape for a few days?

Wouldn't it be nice to have something to look forward to?

Start day-dreaming about Labour Weekend. It's Friday 21 - Monday 24th of October this year - less than two months away. 

Why not go somewhere you've always wanted to go?

I'm a bit guilty of this myself - exploring other countries before I've really got to know New Zealand. It really is a great country isn't it?

What's on your wishlist?

If your plans include staying overnight - we've got hundreds of options for self-contained units, Bed and Breakfasts and Homestay accommodation, all over New Zealand. 

 

But don't take our word for it - hear from some of our guests to find out why they are using Look After Me. Check out their video here.

Look After Me teamed up with photographer Mead Norton to host workshops for Homestay and Bed and Breakfast hosts who have an interest in capturing better photographs of their property. 

the first workshop took place at Pohutu Vista, an upmarket B&B showcasing views of Lake Rotorua and nearby Pohutu Geyser. Hosts Althea and Ashley Oldman have managed resorts in Rarotonga and upon returning to Rotorua, decided to continue in the spirit of hospitality by opening their doors for guests.

"It's very personal. We just take one party at a time," explains Althea. "It is sharing our passion for New Zealand that makes hosting visitors so exiting."

During the workshop, Mead covered technical aspects of photography and lighting as well as hands-on teaching using the accommodation at Pohutu Vista.
