Tranquil setting! "Base Camp," as we fondly refer to it, is a picturesque wooden chalet nestled into the side of Mount Bealey. Adorned with adzed wooden beams, a substantial rock-faced fireplace, and exposed wood interiors, it exudes the cozy ambiance of a mountain chalet, which it truly is! Enveloped by beech trees, you can often spot New Zealand's native birds, such as Toutouwai (robins) and Korimako (Bellbirds), right from the living room sofa or the deck. This is the perfect retreat for your family, offering a relaxing escape from the city, and a chance to savor one of New Zealand's most stunning locations—Arthur's Pass. Base Camp is just a short walk away from the village center yet enjoys a serene and tranquil setting. If you listen carefully, you might even hear the occasional kiwi at night. Upstairs, there's a private and sheltered deck, along with space outside in the garden for kids to run around of have a BBQ, taking in the great mountain views and the therapeutic embrace of nature.

Bealey track, boasting panoramic views of the entire Arthur's Pass valley, lies just under 5 minutes away. This area boasts numerous enchanting walking tracks, each offering a distinct experience—some leading to waterfalls, others meandering alongside rivers or Tarns, and a few ascending high into the mountains. Embarking on the ascent into the mountains begins with a stroll through the lush native forest, adorned with ferns and a rich undergrowth. As you ascend, the forest gradually thins, revealing breathtaking views from the mountain summits.

We departed a day early because it was not a good experience: mouse traps next to clean wine glasses, a mix of many wires on either side of the bed, and a old smelling first level forced us to leave early. I contacted the owner, Heidi, and her response was:’ this has never happened before’—and that was all. ##### Ray Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Sylvie M.

The house itself had everything we needed; plenty of space and a well-stocked kitchen. It was pretty cold and rainy for the whole of our stay, but the fire made the house feel cosy. Heidi was great to deal with and made check in etc a breeze. We’d definitely stay again if we found ourselves back in the area. ##### Kate S.
