We had a lovely one night stay at Glacier Cottage. We arrived late afternoon in time to sit outside with a glass of wine, facing the distant Franz Joseph Glacier. (view from the verandah). Very peaceful and tranquil view - relaxing after a day of touring. The accommodation surrounded by paddocks of miniature horses, is basic but adequate and Vanessa was welcoming and helpful (even after we'd managed to push a wrong button on the tv and disabled it!)
