South island road trip

This house is so great. Lots of space for 2 adults and 2 teenagers both inside and out, great use of the garden so you can follow the sun or stay in the shade with a variety of chairs and tables (we tried them all!) Really comfy beds and super quiet neighborhood meant we all slept well after walking in Aoraki. Really close to the shops and supermarket so we walked everywhere! Amy the owner was great with clear communication and checking in after we arrived to make sure everything was OK. Loved it and would definitely stay again.

Comfortable and convenient

The Bach was very warm and roomy with all the mod cons to make for a comfortable stay. It was extremely warm and kept heat from the day overnight. After a few days out in the cold fishing the river Ohau it was welcome comfort to warm up, refresh and relax. The large sofas and open plan made it easy to sit with friends and chill out. There is a big deck with distant views of the mountains and BBQ area too. Thank you

Tussock Retreat Review

Am amazing property to Holiday at with such a spacious back garden and outdoor area. We really enjoyed the house. The only criticism was the top sheets have stains that although still clean just took away from the rest of the 5?star rating. Thank you for an amazing week
