    Very beautiful and stylish layout, especially the dining area. The host family must be real artists! Really like their taste of the beddings. And the room is so warm that we were sweating at night!

    This B & B is in a private home, not all that easy to locate, and there is no personal contact with the owner as all your instructions to enter etc were by text. It was beautifully presented and gave us a comfortable night

    Everything. Great hosts, great location, the country feel right in the centre of Tekapo was awesome. Loved feeding the animal’s especially because our Aussie friends had never seen a sheep let alone fed one. Cottage was gorgeous. Such a lovely vibe after staying in new city apartments that are all the same.

    The beds were super comfortable and private with curtains, light and a plug. There was a button to switch the heating on if needed and plenty of locker space. The views from the kitchen/lounge were breathtaking. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped. It’s a lovely hostel and I wish I’d stayed longer.
