Stayed 2 nights as base for Mt Cook sightseeing and tracks. Modern house that remains warm in chilly weather. Secluded, quiet location with large compound and easy driveway which is very close to Twizel. Cosy and warm environment and well furnished house. Am impressed that the owner's guidebook (complimented by wall arts) covers the environment, birds, and notes on stargazing and highlights aurora australis (Southern lights ) in winter.
Highly recommended place and will stay here if and when I come back to Twizel.
