We had such a lovely stay at Twizel Peaceful Retreat for one night. We were a group of 8 adults and 2 toddlers, and everything was just perfect.Andrea’s(host) communication was excellent and everything was clearly explained. Even though she was out of the country, she made sure everything was arranged so we were welcomed properly. We especially appreciated that the heaters were already on when we arrived, which made such a difference, especially while travelling with toddlers.The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We had a really good night’s rest before starting our South Island adventure the next day.Thank you so much, Andrea, for welcoming us into your beautiful, cosy and comfortable home. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily stay again! And I really hope your trip went well too
