Sharon, our host, was very polite and helpful. The cottage was outstanding! While located on the hosts property, it faces outwards to the mountains and is completely private. Awesome views, even from the bed! The place is warm, tidy, comfortable and cosy - even has it's own little fireplace.
The cottage is close to Fairlie shops - we had takeaways for dinner but good to know there's a Four Square there too. We were pretty chuffed to have found a convenient location near Lake Tekapo, making exploring so much easier.
Could not recommend enough! We stopped off on our trip from Christchurch to Queenstown, and are so happy we did. Given the chance, we'd love to have stayed a few extra nights.
