Cosy Cottage Te Anau
Comfortable house back from the lake, but easy walk to it and town. Only downside - not a big one - was that the water pressure throughout the house was a bit low. Would stay again.

About the host

Host profile image
I am now retired but previously my husband & I ran a transport business and on selling this I became a support worker for the elderly which I did until I retired. I also volunteer at the spca op shop which I enjoy immensely. We live on a 5 acre farmlet at West Plains Invercargill and love going to our cottage in Te Anau

Why they chose this property

We love our cottage and find it cosy in the winter and in the summer there is a large back yard to enjoy by having a barbeque playing cricket or just lazing about in the sun. Lots of room to park the boat and lots of board games jigsaws dvds in case its wet.

What makes this property unique

Great mountain views from the lounge sunroom main bedroom and of course the large deck at the front of the cottage. A two minute walk to the lake and a five minute walk to the town centre where you will find two supermarkets and lots of restaurants. Lots of trip to be found enjoying the sights of Te Anau.
