I booked the home to be close to ski fields and the Tasman Glacier, but wow, this sleepy little town has so much more.

The hosts are so kind and very accommodating. They have built a modern, yet cozy, little cottage that was wonderful to stay in. My regret was that we got in late and only stayed for a night. I would like to return, and have already let them know that I will look to stay with them again.
Traveling skiers? This is a terrific midpoint between northern and southern ski areas.
Runners, hikers, bikers, fishermen/women? The place is made for you.
BTW: There is a sack of food for the sheep. Look for it so you can treat the critters when they come say hello. How cute is that?
