About this property

TWIZEL - House near the lake

  • Our cosy house is located in the town of Twizel, and just a 2 minute drive to Lake Ruataniwha. It is a small two bedroom house but has everything you will need to have a great holiday away from home.
    Twizel is a lovely place to stay with lots of activities all year round. The house has amazing views of the mountains and on a clear night you'll see the starts light up the dark sky. Two bedrooms, both with queen beds, a small lounge with a smart TV, wifi and a folding table.
    There is a deck at the front of the house to sit and enjoy the views. Plenty of space for cars to park.
