Peaceful solitude We thoroughly enjoyed our stay surrounded by blooming manuka and blissful quiet. The cabin was ideal. Two cautions: nearby hikes are on private property and incur hefty fees for each visit, and extra fees for linen are charged per person and seemed on the high side.

Great weekend! Amazing views and vistas from this property, one of the holiday homes furthest up the hill and in full sun. We were super cosy with fire and had everything we needed. Highly recommend.

Fantastic place We had the most amazing relaxing weekend. Got incredibly lucky with the first big snowfall for the season too. Only thing missing was a hot tub 😅 Warm, comfortable accommodations, well laid out. Great location for exploring the area.

Mount Lyford 3 day Stay The accommodation was pleasant. We loved the log cabin and the vintage LPs. The views are gorgeous too. The Irina Track was a real nice walk. It would have been useful to be clear as to what we can and can't do around the complex. The agency was flexible with our arrival and departure given the delay we experienced due to our cancelled ferry. We enjoyed a trip to Hanmer Springs 1 hour away from Mt Lyford. Overall we had 3 pleasant and quiet days.
