Very comfortable home
This is a very comfortable home in a great location in Albert Town near the river and walking trails. The house is well appointed with everything we needed, including apples from the trees in the lovely relaxing backyard. It’s a short drive to Wanaka and a short walk to the Pembroke Patisserie! Richelle was easy to communicate with and we wish we could have stayed longer!

Fantastic Holiday
We had a great stay in Albert Town and Richelle was a pleasure to communicate with. The house had everything we needed and is nicely located down a quiet street close to the river. There are views out to the mountains from just about every window. The Fire and Heat Pump kept the place nice and cosy. Plenty of room for five of us to spread out and relax.
