This holiday home has 2 bedrooms, a kitchen with an oven and a microwave, a flat-screen TV, a seating area and 1 bathroom fitted with a shower. Towels and bed linen are offered in the holiday home. The property has an outdoor dining area.

This was a great place in Lake Tekapo. The community was quiet, the kitchen was fully equipped, the bathroom nice and had a wonderful hot shower with high pressure, and the beds were SO comfy and had a much-needed heated pad. We had a car so it was a 4-minute drive to Four Square grocery (where you can walk to the Tekapo waterfront), but we also walked, and it took about 20-25 minutes, so depending on what you'd prefer, it's still reasonably close for those without a car. One thing to note, but not necessarily a bad thing, they do have a washer, but only a drying rack. This didn't bother me, but just wanted to let others know. Overall the stay was very cozy and I would absolutely come back here.

    "Little Birch" was a wonderful vacation home for us. Modern furnishings, good WiFi, very well equipped, flooded with light and clean. The location is also ideal: walking distance to the famous chapel on the lake, as well as to all the restaurants in the village. Nevertheless, it was quiet at night. A clear recommendation from us.

    It could’ve been a nice stay, but I happened to catch them out by chance. THEY DON’T CHANGE THE BEDDING BETWEEN GUESTS. And according to Greg, owner of Book Tekapo, ‘every holiday home company in New Zealand’ does this. Apparently its industry standard to not fully change bedding between bookings. Book Tekapo manage over 50 holiday properties in the area, so beware if you’re looking around Lake Tekapo. Please read more below!
