About this property

Kiwi Getaway, perfect base for exploring Mackenzie

We have a centrally located holiday bach just 2 minutes walk from the shops and restaurants in the centre of Twizel on a quiet side street.
This is a small older bach with a renovated/new kitchen and bathroom. It's comfortable all year round with a Heatpump/Aircon and indoor woodburning fire.
We have a huge fully fenced back section and plenty of off street parking.
Great no frill spot to bring the family or mates to go fishing, biking or exploring the Mackenzie and Mt Cook.
