Sharon was a great host. Very responsive, very accommodating. The cottage is just superbly located on the back of the main house with unblocked views straight through to the mountains ahead. It’s also a short 10 min drive from Fairlie, which is the quaintest little town with great coffee and pies from Fairlie Bakehouse, excellent meals at Carnegie’s and cute little gift stores where you can do a bit of shopping. A 30 min drive to tekapo, it’s a great place to base off from and enjoy the rustic feel of nature and the small town of Fairlie.
