About this property

Home away from Home, Twizel. FREE WIFI

The house is spacious, warm and sunny. It is centrally located and close to reserves, playing fields and walkways, with shops and restaurants just minutes walk away. It is on a back section, very quiet with great views of the night sky and plenty of off street parking. 2 heat pumps and log burner keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Its decorated with our favourite art and a well stocked library of books for you to enjoy during your stay and making sure you feel right at home.

Property review
The property was excellent accomodation for a fishing party of 6 fishing the canals. Clean tidy with all of the equipment for cooking etc. only issue was fire alarm batteries were flat with the alarm beeping constantly at varying times. Apart from that I would highly recommend this property to any larger type group.

Great summer location
Thank you for a wonderful place to stay. Although an older property, it was very clean, tidy and well laid out for our family of adults to enjoy. We will differently be coming back and have already recommended it to others.

Perfect setting
We were booked into here as our original booking at another place turned out to be double booked. Honestly, I would stay here again - very central to everything, clean, tidy, warm and spacious. Also, originally booked and paid for 10 people and after four dropped out we got a refund for them! Thanks heaps

January "winter" break
While the weather was terrible, we had a very pleasant stay at 'home away from home'. The fire and heat pump were really appreciated and we used all the extra bedding we could find. Thanks for making us feel so welcome.
