Great little place

We loved how quiet the area was. The house was the perfect location to hike Mount Cook. There was everything we needed, including a washer! We slept so well here!

Great base for access to spectacular scenic locations & activities

Easy access to Mount Aoraki National Park, Pukaki & Tekapo Lakes. Property very clean, kitted out with everything one would require for a short stay & good space for our family of 3. Easy check in & manager of property easy to make contact with. One small downside - not many local eateries around Twizel!

Comfort and quiet

We had a fabulous 4 night stay. The cottage is reasonably new, very clean and has everything you need.Neighbouring house (with many cars in drive) was pretty close but they were quiet and respectful. The cottage windows face a lush lawn and there is seating under the shade of the eaves. Would return here - loved the house and Twizel!!

Weekend Away from Every day Caios

We decided it was time to have a break away together without any responsibilities. We like to explore different areas as New Zealand has a lot of hidden treasures. The house is quite quaint and suitable for this occasion. Very central for whst we wanted to do.

Refuge in the rain

The weather was not very cooperative during our time in Twizel, but it was nice to have a warm and comfortable place to stay. We appreciated the washing machine, but since it was way too wet to use the outdoors clothesline we had to hang things up inside. The kitchen was well equipped and the living room nice for hanging out. The second bedroom looked a little tight, but we didn’t use it since there were only the two of us.

Our Twizel treat

A well appointed modern and peaceful setting. From here we could visit many places of interest. Especially enjoyed Mount Cook and the Clay Cliffs. Local walks and the pub were enjoyable too. Twizel is a sweet little town. Thank you Philippa for your help when needed :)
