About this Holiday House

AUTUMN SPECIAL: 10% discount for stays or 2 or more off-peak nights until the end of June 2024 (excludes Statutory weekends). Small but perfectly formed, The Red Nest offers cosy mountain accommodation at its best. Enjoy spectacular mountain and Lake Tekapo views at this well-appointed holiday home, 3 minutes’ drive from Tekapo’s restaurants, shops, hot springs and observatory. Ideal for a couple or a solo retreat, this self-contained cottage features one double and one small single bedroom, bathroom, full kitchen with dishwasher, washing machine and TV. To help you stay warm during the Tekapo winter there are electric blankets on the beds and a heat pump. The Aoraki Mackenzie district is renowned for its night sky (the largest Dark Sky Reserve in the world), beautiful scenery and unbeatable climate. Whatever the season, you’ll never be short of things to do in Tekapo, including skiing, walking, horse trekking, hot pools, star-gazing, scenic flights, boating and ice skating. Close to everything Tekapo has to offer, Cowan’s Hill Reserve with its popular walking and biking tracks is right outside The Red Nest’s back door. For those looking to make the most of the Lake Tekapo ski scene, Mt Dobson and Roundhill Ski Areas are both 50 minutes away. By prior agreement well-behaved family dogs are welcome to stay with you at this pet-friendly property (not fenced). The Red Nest is situated beside Castle Hall, an 8-bed property, making it the ideal place to stay in Tekapo when traveling with a larger group, but seeking some independence.
