Adrian’s place is wonderful for many reasons — the location (stunning and secluded, so you get privacy from the crowds but are close to Wanaka and Mt Cook — and pretty close to Tekapo), the hospitality (Adrian was quick to respond, provided helpful advice, and even sent a thoughtful warning about a tropical storm coming after we depart his place — we were able to alter our route because of his early warning!), the comfort (the house is super stylish and comfortable with so many thoughtful details), the view (amazing view of lake Ohau), the cleanliness (we interacted with the cleaner, who was super helpful and nice), and attention to little details (like leaving a bottle of wine to drink, hot water bottles in the event it gets cold, and helpful instructions posted around the house).
My husband and I stayed two nights on our honeymoon and highly recommend a visit to Adrian’s home!
