    Loved almost everything about the place. Clean great location. Far enough from the main road not to be a nuisance. Fully equipped kitchen. Bathrobes, the list goes on.

    Absolute gem of a place! Lovely cottage with its own secluded garden area. Just outside Te Anau so car needed. Super comfortable and well equipped. Wish we could have stayed longer.

    We loved our cottage and the views. Everything was very clean, the bed was very comfortable and we enjoyed great views. A very good spot for activities in the region and fit going to Milford Sound.
