If you’re looking for a Te Anau stay with all the comforts but something a little extra, you must stay at Pete and Bee’s tiny home/farm stay, Pinecone Cottage. The hosts have thought of everything to ensure guests have an exceptional experience: the house, only 5 mins or so from the town, is secluded and private, the interior is cosy and well laid out, the breakfast provisions are delicious, there are excellent cooking facilities if you’re so inclined (but great eateries in town), and the bed is huge and supremely comfortable. Relaxing in the hot tub under the stars, and feeding the curious and cheeky alpacas are two particular highlights, as every reviewer attests. The birdlife is amazing, and we spent a lovely afternoon (in the tub of course) watching two hawks hunt for their prey. Pete and Bee are superhosts, very responsive and helpful. We felt so cared for throughout our all-too-short stay. If we’re back in this part of the world we’ll be staying here. Highly recommended.
