Te Anau stay

Clean and tidy older style house that was perfect for our family visit to Te Anau. The house is located very close to the town centre and other central attractions and good base to explore Milford Sound and access to many trout fishing rivers.

Although the property was a little dated in places, it had all the facilities we needed and was very clean. We had a little difficulty operating the heat pump but this was dealt with very quickly via a telephone call to the owner, Gill. The weather was cool, damp and windy and so we really appreciated the cosy atmosphere of the property - It felt very homely. Also convenient for all amenities and the lake, but at the same time was situated in a quiet area.
