Cottage vacation rentals in Twizel

This was an especially cozy place, wonderful to relax. The hosts were especially personable. If we had had more time or were to come back to the area, we would stay longer!

We were warmly welcomed by Jackie on arrival to the airbnb and made to feel right at home & at ease. The airbnb was gorgeous and such a little haven. We were sad to only be staying one night!!! Would highly recommend

Fabulous cottage. Loved staying here. The bed was super comfortable and the cottage had everything we needed. Everything was clean and well presented. It was all great. Tania was very helpful and friendly.

David is a super host - check in was super easy. Beautifully kept place, peaceful and private with great views of Lake Tekapo and the stars! 5 stars - recommend highly.

Couldn’t recommend high enough. The perfect cottage, every detail is thought out, the beds are incredibly comfortable. We could have easily stayed longer. Thank you Jana!!

I highly recommend booking the hot tub and having a soak while the sunsets

Can’t say enough about this accommodation! Such a cute little space, and our hosts have thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. The wood fired hot tub does take a while to heat up, but once you get it going, it’s magical. Kitchen was compact and had everything we needed. Fireplace was warm and cozy. We did have a bit of a struggle to get the fires going, but Amy was so helpful and responsive and came right over to help us out. Would love to come stay here again!

What an awesome spot just beautiful and a good base for traveling around the Mackenzie basin. Great amenities and well set up for families.

Fabulous location. Beautiful walk along the lake to the Church and township. We loved being able to light a fire after watching the stars on a clear, cool night.

We had such an amazing time in Henry's and Rachel's cottage. The place is very cozy and has a great vibe. Love the fireplace! Would definitely come back 😊

Such an awesome spot. Had our own private cottage behind the shops with parking. The fridge was stocked with a few breakfast items and they even brought us bread for the morning for toast. There’s a little coffee cart in front with the shops so we were able to grab a cup before heading to check out Lake Tekapo and the observatory. We were greeted by Chickie, a solo chicken who was very friendly and we were also told there were alpacas on the property, but didn’t see any due to the weather probably. Definitely a unique and interest spot to check out, but still nice and quiet. Would definitely stay again.

Leanne’s lovely, clean, warm & beautiful home looks so good. Our 2 families enjoyed these 2-night stays. The fashion clean kitchen with full set of kitchenware is very useful. All the rooms are delicate and compact, but still warm & clean. And Twizel is only 40mins to Mountain Cook or Tekapo Lake, very convenient as well. We recommend you (a small group) to visit Leanne’s great home.

Sandra has gone above and beyond to make you feel at home in her carefully curated space. Anything and everything has been thought of and the attention to detail is impressive. The space is peaceful and perfect to unwind even over a gloomy Easter weekend! Highly recommend to anyone needing a wee gateway to Lake Tekapo and surrounds.

A magical place to wake and watch a beautiful dawn rise above the mist and to sit and hear tui and fantail calling at sunset. Everything you could wish for in a home from home been thought of. Definitely come back again.

Great location with views of Lake Middleton from the lounge and 1 bedroom. Loved all the decor touches to make the cottage live up to it's "Snowshoe" name. Perfectly clean and entry was simple (even in the dark) when we arrived. Even though we had a lot of rain during our stay, the washing machine and dryer meant we weren't impeeded - just as easy as being at home. Fully equipped kitchen. Would love to stay again when we are back in the Aoraki region!

Great house to stay in Fairlie. Great location and views. House is well equipped and comfortable. Great hosts thank you.

Comfortable, clean and beautiful setting for our short trip to Pleasant Point. Ann was very helpful and responsive. Highly recommend!

Beautiful lakefront cottage with incredible views and a quiet and private location. This home is older but clean and well-maintained. There is no central heat or AC but the space heaters were effective. The host provided lots of information about activities. The house is located about 35-45 minutes to Mount Cook National Park and Lake Tekapo, 7 minutes from Lake Pukaki retreat (stargazing) and 15-20 minutes from Twizel with shopping and restaurants. The house was larger than expected with 4 twin and 1 larger (queen or king?) bed. Checkin was easy, kitchen was well-equipped and our stay was great.
