Spotless! Clean and comfortable. Owner was most helpful with suggestions. Cute decor, with extra touches like a towel warmer in the bath, full kitchen with two burners (we didnt cook, but nice that we could have - because the top restaurants were fully booked in town). Definitely a good idea to make reservations ahead of time, for dinner. It’s 2-3 km outside of Te Anau’s central downtown, but it’s a short, easy drive. SO quiet. Lovely views. Sheep and cows on or adjacent to property. We used this cottage as a base to explore Milford and Doubtful sounds, and we also took the glowworm cruise/cave walk from Te Anau.
Scratched our rental car on some branches while driving out, but that was my fault.

A wonderful little cottage that was comfortable, quiet and in a stunning setting overlooking the mountains. The bed and the sofa were exceptionally comfortable, the shower was powerful. The kitchenette had everything to enable you to home cook. The cottage is located just outside town but is close enough to travel for an an evening meal. We were provided with info on the best place to eat by a warm and friendly owner . It was spotlessly clean and was one of the best we’ve stayed in New Zealand - Thankyou
Nothing - it was all great .

New Zealand's best accommodation options and B&B owners, the environment is quiet and clean, the house is fully equipped, each household can park in the front yard, and the scenery outside the window is like a paradise. The most important thing is that the friendly greetings and care from the hosts make you feel like you are home. Just in time for Christmas, we also received a small gift from the owner, which was heartwarming.
No, everything is so perfect

Everything..staying on a farm and surrounded by greenery and animals it was just magical. Too bad for us it was just after full moon so we didn't get to see many stars but we did see some when we went out at midnight. Close to The Anau town centre (5 mins drive) so you can stock up on groceries or go to the many restaurants. The property is on the road to Milford so you exit to the right n just drive all the way to Milford Sounds. Our host was very friendly n made us feel right at home. It's a pity we were out most of the days as this would be a perfect place to just rest n be back with nature.
Nothing. Everything was wonderful.

The cottages are very quaint! I loved the property! Beautiful greenery and flowers and sweet birds (Tui)! The cottage is simple but very clean and comfortable. The hostess was very sweet and helpful giving us information about the area, where to eat and telling us about the Tui birds.
Hmmm I can't think of anything not to like....

A lovely little cottage, private & nicely separated from neighbours & although on the main road, quiet. It is a little north of TeAnau & a bit far to walk without a car. It is well equipped, very clean & comfortable & Maggie is a very accomodating host. We had a lovely view of the mountains which we could enjoy from the living area or the outdoor table setting. We had a happy stay there.

Cottage clean and comfortable with all we needed for our three night stay. Excellent location on edge of town with views across to the mountains. Easy five minute drive into centre of town. Great place to stay. Highly recommended.
Nothing that we didn't like.

The cottages were great! They were all freshly new and well appointed. The outdoor space was beautiful and private. The hosts were available to us at all times and loaned us the grill and oil.
