The Barn

Love staying here, has been 16 years since last time at this property. The beds need to be upgraded and the pillows. Also need things like paper towels, glad wrap and more toilet paper than 1 roll. Very clean, great location, warm with an excellent fire.

Needs to have a few more things to make cooking easier

Open spaces

Great facilities provided.

none

Awesome

Nice view

Didn’t have proper kitchen facilities

Good size. Working fireplace. Hot water in the showers. Clean towels and sheets. Washing machine.

Dishwasher broken. Peeling paint on ceiling. Chipped bedside tables. Stained carpets. Very close to a busy road.

Area and the property was good

Generalised approach. As example, Instructions which we received contained information about how to use fireplace. But later we were told that it is not for summer time)

Sehr geräumig und gemütlich, fantastische Aussicht auf den See.

Beautiful Building for family stay with good views

Bit of unexpected road noise through the night

Great location, comfortable, loved the fire , kitchen fully equipped

The dishwasher was smelly as food leftover was stuck there.

Great views, perfect spot for a family getaway with loads of room. The property was warm when we arrived which was lovely & welcoming in comparison to the outside temperature.

A great place to stay. Amazing kitchen, comfortable beds, good sized rooms. The fire made it nice and cozy and the heat pumps did the trick combatting the Tekapo cold. Would definitely book it again

Nothing to improve

Loft style rooms and location was a nice 15 min walk into town along the lakefront

The location and the property. The insulation and heating provisions inside which included both a heatpump and a fireplace.

Nothing

Loved it, great setup, amazing location clean ans crisp. Definitely recommend to others

Big generous barn style accom., would suit a couple of families, plenty of kitchen utensils & cooking facilities, bathrooms a good size & modern, comfy lounge suites, all the mod cons of home. A close walk to Lake Tekapo & township, picturesque views from the backyard.

place was a little tired, needs a good spring clean & touch up, super close to major highway, constant noise from traffic.

Location and cleanliness

Could use instructions for the oven and dishwasher.

Very spacious for two couples

The bbq was very dirty We were looking forward to having a bbq but it obviously had not been cleaned for a long time The rest of the property was very clean

Facility is good. Well equipped kitchen. Great view in front of the door with BBQ and chairs.

Expensive at high season around Tekapo. have to accept it

Great view

Sorry to say, but the beds were very uncomfortable and of pour quality.

Spectacular view of the lake. Easy access to walking track around lake and into town

The spaciousness, layout, and location, views, and fireplace

..

In a quieter part of Tekapo, so perfect!

The apartment was spacious, clean & cozy. Nice view..

The bathroom has no heater. No dryer for the washing machine.

Easy to find and great location

Beautiful view and open plan space downstairs with an awesome space for the kiddoes upstairs.

Great fire place and lovely spacious garden looking out to the late and mountains. Easy access to the Tekapo reserve .

Didn't realise it was so close to the main road. From the photos we thought it was a lakefront. Despite this it was still a recommendable place.

That there was soap provided

The barn was warm and cosy . The fireplace was amazing on the cold nights .

Nothing we didn’t like . Awesome views and great location

Comfortable, clean, functional, 2 toilets/showers.

Hard to find the place in the dark/at night. The house’s number is unclear. No Full body mirror upstair.

The View

Could do with a little TLC in side

Table and work table felt dirty and tacky didn't look clean

Place was really nice, facing the lake. Was clean and tidy with everything needs for a group to relax.

None

Spacious lovely barn with very comfortable beds. Staff were responsive and flexible

Nothing disliked. The road is closer than realised but didn't disturb us. The dishwasher wasn't taking tablets properly so may need to be fixed

Beautiful views, relaxed, comfy, homelike, spacious, Everything you need for kitchen etc Amazing wood burner, great location We had the BEST time at The Barn!

The place was so good. And very specious

Fantastic place. Beautiful location, so comfortable and warm inside. Bed were great, water pressure in showers was amazing. Love love loved it !

Nil

fabulous views,spacious house,

Very comfortable. Great location

Great location, spacious indoor and outdoor areas.

Having a smart TV would be much better.

Location and the barn itself was beautiful, love the creation of shed/house. Great shower and bathroom facilities also.

I love this place and cant wait to come back

Downstairs was quiet but you can hear the road upstairs. Bring earplugs and well worth it to stay in such a great place.

Amazing location, great view, close to the village center.

Excellent place and great location to spend with family

I did not end up staying at this property. The property i stay was good however not good if you lot of luggage. Its upstairs.

Shame! I am extremely disappointed with my experience. Despite booking the Barn four months in advance, the manager informed me last minute about a double booking and offered an alternative property. This lack of reliability is concerning, and I had no choice but to accept the inconvenient alternative. Moving luggage upstairs with two kids was particularly challenging. I'm seriously reconsidering booking any property in the future. Thats shame!

Location

Nothing

Very spacious and it was great to be able to walk to the church and town centre. The view was lovely and nice to eat outside.

Just not used to the traffic noise and lights coming through the blinds while trying to sleep. The fireplace didn't heat up much so we just used the aircon unit.

The view, the facility, the location, very clean. The house was so warm when we arrived on the cold afternoon. Will be stay there again when we back to Tekapo. Highly recommended

Nothing

not b and b

Could have been closer to town, but we didn't book early enough.

Great location and beautiful views!

Bit dated inside, could do with a touch up.

Very comfortable and roomy place in a good location

Great stay in a beautiful town Should of stayed longer

Great views, well equipped, great layout, a very unique place.

The oven didn't work very well. Couldn't get it to heat up on some of the functions. Had to use the fanbake/grill option which wasn't ideal for some of the meals we were having. Would have loved to have had a mirror in the upstairs bedroom. There was only one in the bathroom which we had to wait to use if someone in there. Just a wee suggestion, because the kitchen was so well equipped, there is no cupboard or unit to put your food. Maybe look at having a free cupboard or space. We had put our food on the bench & table, which left little prep space.

We love everything, specially the view and the ambiance. It' my sister's first time to see and experience winter and she was stunned and very happy when.we woke up with snow next morning. Host was very understanding they let us stay for a while so we can plan and wait till the SH will be open. We were thankful for that and we feel blessed. 🙏

Spacious

Wasn’t clean

Spacious, and warm

it’s was fab lovely fire place lovely view wish we could stay longer

it was all perfect

We loved our stay at the Barn. Love the location, the view, the fire place and the outdoor area. Great kitchen set up as well.

wifi was not working. restart did not fix the issue. the sky cable was also not working at the start, had to debug and restart to make it work. didn’t have lighter and newspapers for the log burner.

Nice view, good location for star gazing, enjoying a sunrise and large house, perfect for families or groups. Seemed to be fully equipped which was good and bed was comfy.

Face cloths and hand towels not supplied. TVs upstairs were quite old and only had DVD players, this was inconvenient when there were none at the property.

The Barn is great for families and is in a terrific location overlooking Lake Tekapo.
