Great stay in the train car at Te Anau Lodge. Friendly and very helpful staff. Kym was amazing, she helped us find the best cruise on Milford Sound, great hikes nearby and a restaurant recommendation. Breakfast was served in the dining room with delicious cold & hot options. Many extras with this stay. Thanks so much!

A beautiful place, with an interesting history

This was the most gorgeous and quirky place to stay. We loved the heritage features and the creative atmosphere that has really shown off the fact that the owner has a good imagination. Consider a combination of an old convent building, beautiful spacious grounds, and then add a dollop of Alice in Wonderland. We were very happy with our stay in the bishops cottage, loved the location, and will come back to stay here as soon as we can plan another visit to Te Anau.

We spent a very comfortable night in a converted railway carriage which was quirky and a lot of fun. The carriage had pretty much everything you could require including a claw foot bath and a fabulous view of the distant snow covered mountains. Breakfast was provided and was served in the main building. A couple of things do need attention though, firstly the Wi-Fi signal which was too weak to function efficiently and secondly there was a broken window pane above the bed.

Over-priced for what you get. Very basic. You should probably bring your own food. Choices are very limited.
