秋の終わりに宿泊しました。 外は寒かったですが、部屋の中はエアコンとオイルストーブで暖かく過ごせました。部屋は広く、あたたかみと清潔感がありました。 食洗機、洗濯機、乾燥機が備え付けてありました。スタッフの方も親切でした。 商業施設までは歩くには少し遠いですが、車を使えばすぐなのと、部屋からテカポ湖を眺められてとても良かったです。

Amazing location, amazing apartment Thank you!

From the moment we arrived we were met with a fantastic friendly welcome. Our host explained everything very clearly and gave excellent recommendations for where to go and where to eat. She was lovely. This was the highlight of our trip- what a gorgeous apartment with the most stunning views we’ve ever had from an apartment. We honestly could not recommend this place more highly! Thank you for letting us enjoy such a fantastic house with such memorable views 👌👌👌

We stayed at the Shearers Quarters and it was a lovely stay. There was a dedicated parking space, beautiful bathroom with soaking tub and comfortable king size bed. Easy walking access into town and helpful hosts. Our stargazing tour was canceled due to cloudy weather but the office for that was right down the street.
