Sonia's house is highly recommended. it's the top 1 air b&b i have experienced in New Zealand during 20 days traveling. You'd better stay for more than 2days here. House is absolutely isolated so we have our privacy protected. Room is cozy and everything are prepared for us. It takes 40 mins to Tekapo and 2 hrs to Christchurch. The scenery nearby is fantastic and you can see the most beautiful farmland without any cost. Sonia invited us to hold lil lamb she fed, sooooo cute. oh, and Stella, the dog who is friendly and we took lots of photos together.
