The studio is well-situated just above Lake Tekapo with remarkable views of the lake and surrounding mountains. The space is well-appointed, clean, modern, and new. Lake Tekapo village is easily walkable from the studio and the Mt John Observatory is a 15 minute drive (or 1-2 hours hike). Mt Cook National Park and Lake Pukaki are easily accessible, about 1 hour drive. Andy was a fantastic host with lots of interesting information about the area and recommendations for things to see and do. Very much enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.
