    Super easy to collect keys that were left for us in a secure box. The shared kitchen is large and well equipped. Lovely living space and even with several other couples staying it never felt cramped or busy. Clean shared bathrooms and comfy beds....

    Stunning location but best to arrive in the light as 40 mins along gravel road. Lovely authentic property and very comfortable beds!

    Amazing location, far away from crowds, beautiful to just enjoy the nature. Room and common spaces were clean and well equipped. Not that we didnt like, but there is a bit of a drive to get to the house, but worth it :)

Company info

Mt Cook Station is a 2500 hectare high country property. The Miles family are a young family who love welcoming people to our special place. Tahlia is 2.5 years old, Peter 5 years old and Lukas 11 years old. We farm cattle and have a few pet merino sheep. The farm itself is covered in wilding pine which we are logging and restoring back to farmland.

Property info

The shearers quarters is a very rustic comfortable house. Located just 500 meters from the main homestead they were used to house the shepherds/shearers who worked the farm years ago. The exterior is old and original however the interior is new and refreshing. There is outdoor seating with views over the garden/pet animals and Tasman River/southern alps. A short walk away are amazing views of Mount Cook. There are 5 bedrooms with all shared facilities including the kitchen, dining, lounge and bathrooms. Very spacious areas. Please note there is limited to no cell phone coverage and Wifi is limited. We live in the middle of nowhere, however you are invited to walk tracks through the farm.

Neighborhood info
