The location is really good, approx. 15 minutes to the Arthur Pass Village. There is Bealey Hotel across the house if you need breakfast/lunch/dinner. But, we just went to the cafe at Arthur Pass Village for a cheaper and quick options as it was also on our way to the main attractions which are in Arthur Pass village.
The house is also very close to the Bealey Spur Track, which I really recommend for the 360 stunning view of all the mountains. We were very very lucky that the weather was sooooo fine, that we had an amazing view of the river valleys and surrounding mountains.
Thanks again for letting us stay.
