Glenfalloch Station Hotel

We visited Glenfalloch Station as part of a five day mountainbike tour of the Canterbury High Country. It was the highlight of our trip due to the views of the Arrowsmiths, and the upper Rakaia River which are nothing short of sensational. The farm tracks we rode in and out on are easy to follow and in great condition. The cottage accommodation was incredibly comfortable and fully catered, homemade bread and soup, slowcooked lambshanks to follow and a cheeseboard to finish off. The hospitality offered by Dietlind and Chas was far superior to my expectations. My only complaint is we did not allow ourselves enough time, our overnight stay was too short. We would have happily stayed an extra day or two. The mountainbiking in this area was amazing. Mountainbike access between Glenfalloch and Lake Heron traverses private station land so permission is needed from both Glenfalloch and from the neighbouring Lake Heron Station (via email) to make the through trip.
