We had a great stay in Twizel and the Bach was perfect. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we need for a very comfy stay. Teresa is a very attentive and friendly host who made sure everything was going well for us. Would highly recommend staying :)
Even though we only stayed for two nights, the house was a welcome respite from our travels. The house is extremely well appointed and modern. We appreciated having a washer and dryer, a king-size bed, and the DeLonghi espresso maker was top notch too! Highly recommended!
Loved the house. Very clean and good beds. Well stocked with welcome treats. Wonderful front porch to enjoy the sunset and sunrise. Little hard to find at night but not a problem. Hope to stay here again.

Thank you so much for your lovely review! So happy you enjoyed the house, especially the porch views. We really appreciate how clean you left everything. Sorry about the nighttime directions, we'll work on that. You're welcome back anytime!
The best part is the night sky with all the stars. we did not need to pay for stargazing.We wanted to stay one more night but it had been booked.Thanks to the host!
Really lovely quiet location for a restful night after a long drive. The house is well equipped and clean and we enjoyed the extra touches such as chocolates and nice soap! Thank you
My wife and I were looking for a relaxing place near Lake Tekapo and Mt. Cook and Teresa's place was perfect. We were able to cook, relax, enjoy local food, the wonderful sunsets and more. We also were ideally located to get to Mt Cook and Lake Tekapo for hikes, star gazing and more.Teresa was very helpful, shared local knowledge and available as needed during our stay.Thank youMike
