About this property

Long Lookout, St Arnaud

Long Lookout is one of the orginal bachs at Lake Rotoiti. It is the perfect weekend holiday spot, only an hour from Nelson or Blenheim. Surrounded by mountains in a National Park, there are many opportunities for walking, tramping, boating and fishing. In winter it is close to Rainbow Ski Field for skiing.


- Close to Lake Rotoiti
- Close to the Information Centre

This much loved bach has been owned by the same family for over 60 years. It is full of character, comfortable and typically Kiwi. It proudly boasts no TV! You come here to enjoy the peace and relaxation. A well stocked games cupboard provides plenty of entertainment. A spacious living room well suited to family life retains the character of Days gone By. The Bach is situated on a large private section with its own track straight down to the Lake!

PLEASE NOTE: Linen is NOT provided, and you are expected to clean the property before your departure

Extra's: Cleaning (Optional, NZ$115 per stay,) NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels)

Great location. This is a character home with a big lounge area. The rooms are small and the bunk beds are very old.

Great proper old fashioned bach

We love the old fashioned feel of this bach. And the fire place. Don't be fooled though, you will need your slippers and wolly jersey! But that's ok!
