    Beautiful property and loved seeing the deer outside our window. The room itself was a 10+. Bed was super comfortable and the shower was wonderful. As excellent as the property was the staff and food were really the standouts. From being greater by the staff at our car when we arrived, arranging for a last minute spa treatment, to arranging a Breakfast box when we left at 4:45am to head off to our Dolphin encounter the staff was amazing. Both the included Breakfast and Dinner were Fabulous! Wish we had time to try lunch as well. Definitely on our list when we visit again and would stay longer.

    We booked a cabin for 3 nights. Us and our 2yr old and 4yr old. The cabin was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. It has a lovely little deck area then onto a lawn which was perfect for the children. A playground in the main camping area also fab. Toilets and showers really close. Everything was clean and the owners are lovely. We had such a great time.

    I really enjoyed my stay in Christchurch.

    I really enjoyed my stay in Christchurch. We stayed in the center of town and found it a very pleasant area to walk around - gardens, cafes, river walk, historical buildings etc. and also took the time to go hiking in the Port Hills (great views) and to visit Willowbank wildlife reserve (a very children friendly place for a stroll - with both native and non-native wildlife on display (the eels definitely enjoy being fed!) Outside the town, I recommend the Pegasus winery for a delightful tasting and picnic lunch. The setting is just beautiful

    I adore Lake Tekapo. Views for days. Good hot pools. Peaceful. A decent serious hike up Mt John to the Observatory Cafe or an easier one up to Cowes Lookout, both with amazing views. I've been going for years - still small but a good supermarket now and more eateries. It is getting busier and pricey, both accommodation and eateries. On the road to Queenstown so an easy stopover. Go with a car if you can - a side trip into Aoraki Mt Cook and walks up the Hooker Valley are worth it.

    Mount Cook Village is a great location if you are planning to do some walks in the area. We did the Hooker Valley Track, Sealy Tarn Track, and the Tasman Glacier View after which we were exhausted and travelling to another location would have been a bit much. Staying at the village was the best decision. At night you can travel slightly out to get the most exceptional views of stars and in the morning you wake up to unbelievably beautiful views of mountains. If you are lucky you might just get some snow.

This time it was July middle of winter. Didn't catch any fish but I got some great photos. Had a lovely meal out at Poppies. Would recommend them. We were disappointed with our accommodation, but it didn't ruin our stay in Twizel.
