The location is great due to closeness to Lake Tekapo. We had some time to kill before the checkin and stopped in Fairlie, which is a very cute town: Check out the minigolf - you can play for free if you buy a coffee, ice cream etc.
The contact with the hosts felt a little distant, we met them briefly, but had no further encounter with them.
Eventhough we knew about the shared bathroom in the main building the walk is pretty inconvenient, especially in the dark.
Fyi: According to the house rules showertime shouldn’t exceed 10min.
We feel the room could use a makeover or at least a little less decoration and instead give more free space for the guests to use. The breakfast was basic.
Derek and Fluffy are cute and def. the highlight of this place!!
