Awesome place
Such a great place to stay. We loved having a washing machine in our room with access to a dryer next door. The kitchen was perfect and included a yummy chocolate bar for check in. We stayed two nights and traveled to Mount Cook on the second day. Beautiful area.

This was a very nice self contained unit with everything you would need. Unfortunately our timing was bad as we were there when the level 4 shut down was announced. Tim and Coralie were extremely helpful and went above and beyond what was expected. Thank you so much for a great stay and all your help.

Twizel high quality, excellent value accommodation
The accommodation was very well presented, extremely clean and fresh. The kitchen facilities were excellent, in very good condition and spotless as we're shower and laundry facilities. All at very good value. Location was peaceful not far from town centre where there were plenty of amenities, shopping, eating etc.

The Twizel Cottage was clean, cosy, inviting and featured plenty of modern decor. It allowed plenty of natural lighting into the house, had the majority of kitchen appliances necessary to cook meals, situated within a close distance to the town centre, was peaceful and spacious. The Twizel Cottage is arguably one of the nicest places to stay in in the small town of Twizel.

Excellent, 11 out of 10
We had a wonderful and very comfortable stay at Twizel Cottage and Coralie and Tim were excellent and were quick to respond to our needs. The apartment is very modern (if only all other NZ apartments were like this!) and tastefully decorated and the beds were really comfy. We took advantaged of the BBQ pit for our dinner meals. The area was peaceful and quiet with good views of the mountain. Twizel is a quaint little town with 2 decent supermarkets and several restaurants. It is an excellent base to access Mt Cook and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Thank you very much to Tim and Coralie.

Twizel Cottages is situated only thirty minutes or so from the Hooker Pass which makes it the perfect pit-stop. The place is beautifully clean and modern. The garden/courtyard in the back is a real treat to have a meal in. It was extremely easy to find with ample parking. Would highly recommend to anyone wanted to stay the night in Twizel.

Perfect for our little family of 3. A great spot to Unwind and enjoy the beautiful location and surrounding areas. House beautifully decorated, clean, and had everything you need for a short stay (only thing I missed was having a microwave). Perfect little outdoor area for our toddler to safely run around in. Would highly recommend to couples or families.

Sweet cottage
This is a new little cottage built by the owners. We were a party of three. The size of the cottage was perfect for us. The bathroom/ toilet is on the small side but still suitable. The courtyard is a delight. The only problem with the courtyard is that at the moment there is no gate to make it fully enclosed making it more secure. Although I'm sure the owners plan to put one in. This is, after all, a brand new property. Other then that it is perfect

Comfy pitstop
Super cozy little cottage, close to the centre of town. Emailed instructions for getting in way in advanced which we appreciated! This was the perfect pitstop for our road trip across the South Island, it's really nice to relax in. Cannot say how thankful we were for a comfy night in with a spotless home-for-the-night, quiet washing machine and Netflix already hooked up!

Best place to stay in Twizel!
First impressions are everything, so don't be discouraged by exterior appearances. Inside is probably one of the nicest, most renovated stays We've had in New Zealand. The cottage offers a lovely full kitchen, living room and two queen sized bedrooms (perfect if you'd like to have some alone time with yourself). We stayed here for our honeymoon and it was simply amazing! The owner, Tim, is a very nice gent and took care of everything we needed. It made the stay even better. The cottage is also close enough to visit Mt.Cook (in around 45 minutes) and Lake Takepo (in under 30). Highly recommend staying here! (Oh yeah, it also has a washer in the unit so if you'd like to wash your cloths it's perfect for that too).

Grand cottage très agréable
Le cottage est situé dans un lotissement ce qui ne gène en rien à la qualité de la prestation. Très grande surface avec 2 chambres, une cuisine et une pièce à vivre très agréable. Arrivée et départ très souples (auto check in) mais la propriétaire habite juste à côté et elle est très disponible en cas de problème ou d'interrogation. Il suffit d'aller frapper à sa porte.
