“Spacious and sunny house with amazing views.”
The house is so spacious and well equipped and the large windows offer superb views of Mt Tasman and occasionally Mt Cook. It was ideal for our adult family group and felt like a real home from home. Very close to the facilities of Fox Glacier and Lake Matheson. We did the helicopter glacier hike which was fabulous, walked around the lake and had a good walk on the local, deserted beach. The garden is peaceful and full of birdsong. Altogether a really lovely escape and very well designed house.

“Excellent value and beautiful bungalow. Definitely recommend.”
This bungalow is fabulous and huge. The garden is also huge and gives you excellent views as well as the glacier view which can be seen from the bungalow. A few bars/restaurants nearby and one excellent restaurant close. Well equipped. Wished we had stayed longer.
