The owner offered to order me dinner on the two nights that we were there. Weâre both light eaters so she brought one serving one night of a chicken schnitzel.. we shared and a lamb-shank the second night. Both were delicious and filling. It was handy and much appreciated.

Renovated rooms, warm cozy - thanks for toast from an early breakfast start - great stay
Lovely cosy cottage with fantastic rural outlook. About 15 mins out of Tekapo . The owners are very friendly and you can order excellent meals to be delivered. We met the family dogs and cat. Very restful and enjoyable stay.
The motel was fantastic after a busy day travelling with kids. The superior room was just what we needed and more. Kitchen essentials, couches, warm comfy beds. All the family enjoyed there stay
One of the best motel I have ever stayed in my lifetime and highly recommend this place. This was no less than a 5 star hotel. Amazing hospitality with clean rooms and made a comfortable stay. Most memorable experience staying in this motel
Charming family-owned country motel! Super clean rooms, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere. Loved the thoughtful touch of free bread and milkâperfect for a simple breakfast. Great value and a peaceful stay. Highly recommend!
The rooms are clean and spacious. We can even cook in the room and the pots and utensils etc are clean. Owner is friendly too and gave popsicles to my children.

This is incredible value for money. Apartment had some nice touches. We liked the football game. Great location in a beautiful setting. The vintage yard over the road was great.
