We loved our stay at this comfortable house in Wanaka. We couldn't believe our view of the mountains every morning and evening! The house itself is comfortable, well insulated, with lots of quality amenities. The kitchen is very functional and well provisioned. The garage was brilliant for keeping our car stored and direct access to the house. Washing machine and dryer great + 2 large clothes horses. Our kids loved the trampoline! Our only gripe is that the master bed's matress is very firm and not all that comfortable. If this was upgraded, it would be the perfect house to stay in for an extended stay.

We enjoyed our stay in this house. We came for ski holidays and the place had everything we needed. We were greeted with a bottle of wine, which was a nice touch.
It is clean, tidy and very warm. The underfloor heating in bathrooms was a great bonus. We particularly enjoyed a big garage with ski racks, laundry and easy access to the house.
Kitchen is well equipped, there are plenty of dishes, mugs and glasses.
Highly recommend!
The only minor thing I would add are warm but light throws for the living room. It would be nice to wrap up with a cuppa after day in the snow.
Thank you Ken for having us!
