About this Holiday House

Lovely 3 story built in 2011 spacious holiday house with great views at an amazing location. Yes we survived the fire. Set back from the lake, so nice and sheltered for summer BBQs on the deck and next to the reserve, but elevated for views. Well insulated, fully double glazed, plenty of space with upstairs and downstairs living rooms, large garage with auto door and with woodburner with wetback and solar hot water system in summer keeps everyone cosy. Wooden flooring downstairs, carpeted upstairs. Underfloor tiled heating in kitchen and bathroom and firewood can be provided in winter. StarLink Wifi connection in place. Lake Ohau is one of New Zealand's secret getaways. Surrounded by vast amounts of conservation land, with a great skifield a few minutes away and great food at 5 mins away at the Lodge restaurant bar, as well as all the water sports you wish in summer. With good access to the new mountain to sea cycle trail, fishing, mountain biking, tramping, just relaxing. Good supermarket 30 mins away. If you want a good holiday away from the hustle and bustle in either winter or summer and love the outdoors come and visit. House requires you to clean up after yourselves. We prefer you bring your own linen. Washing Machine and Dryer onsite and large chest freezer. Sky dish installed but we only use Freeview so can bring your own decoder if you wish. Single nights possible in off peak periods

Narelle
The Temple is a classic Kiwi bach. As the other reviews state, it could do with a decent clean, a vaccum cleaner that works well amd some general maintenance, but it's priced to reflect this. It's nice and warm with the fire, the kitchen is well-equipped, and the owner responded quickly to querries. The views are amazing! Would stay again.
Chris
Great place in an amazing part of the South Island. Suited our family very well for a weekend stay - clean and tidy and lots of space. Great comms from the owner and we will definitely be back.
