Beautiful fresh roses in our room from Megan’s beautiful garden. Great place to stay away from the hustle and bustle. Would be super gorgeous in the winter with snow around. Great historic little area Burkes Pass ##### Nadie Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nigel Mar 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Made to feel very welcome Our room was spotlessly clean and we could park right outside. We were provided with tea, coffee, etc. and some milk and a few slices of bread, plus butter and jam for toast - much appreciated. The bed was comfortable and the location pretty quiet, so we slept well. Our hosts had thoughtfully turned on the heater - as the nights were cooler. Plenty of hot water, clean towels and toiletries. The room is equipped with a small fridge (with freezer compartment) and a microwave - plus kettle and toaster, crockery and cutlery etc. We could have made the short drive to Tekapo, Fairlie or Kemble to eat out, but were satisfied with a basic meal of our own. Our hosts offer to pick up meals produced by the Tavern in Kemble if requested in advance. We had a table and a couple of chairs on a small deck outside. The motel was an ideal base for our star gazing excursion at the nearby Dark Skies Project and for a day trip to Mount Cook - about an hour and a half drive through stunning vistas. Our hosts were clearly working hard to make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible - they gave a short run through of the facilities and made it clear that we had only to ask if we needed something. ##### Nigel Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wanpeng Oct 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Charming family-owned country motel!

Small space but adequate for one night. Plenty of hot water and kitchen equipment. As the motel is situated along the main road it did get noisy with heavy lorry passing from 5am. That said we would stay again ##### Catherine Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### David Mar 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities If you’re looking to be away from the tourists in Tekapo, this is the place. Only 15 minutes away, it’s almost the middle of nowhere, in a good way. Just a few rooms, in a beautiful mountain setting, and if it hadn’t been so cloudy the starry sky would have been amazing. Quirky retro display across the highway and local history on display. Owner was very kind and helpful. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Villas Cabo San Lucas](https://www.expedia.ca/Cabo-San-Lucas-Villas.d180032-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels with a Lazy River in Jamaica](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Jamaica-Hotels-With-A-Lazy-River.0-0-d88-tHotelswithaLazyRiver.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [The Park Front Hotel at Universal Studios Japan](https://www.expedia.ca/Osaka-Hotels-The-Park-Front-Hotel-At-Universal-Studios-Japan.h12315627.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Saint-Pierre](https://www.expedia.ca/Saint-Pierre-Hotels.d6336665.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Sheraton Suites Calgary Eau Claire](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels-Sheraton-Suites-Calgary-Eau-Claire.h152034.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Sherwood Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Sherwood-Park-Inn-Suites.h5121591.Hotel-Information) > > [Nomads Rest](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Nomads-Rest.h27954748.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stratford, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Stratford-Hotel-London.h31325464.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hermitage Hotel Mount Cook](https://www.expedia.ca/Mount-Cook-Hotels-The-Hermitage-Hotel-Mount-Cook.h179149.Hotel-Information) > > [Honeymoon Resorts and Hotels in Goa](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Goa-Honeymoon-Hotels.0-0-d6049928-tHoneymoonHotels.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [The Westin Bonaventure Hotel and Suites, Los Angeles](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-The-Westin-Bonaventure-Hotel-And-Suites.h11376.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Air Canada Toronto (YYZ) to Rome (FCO) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/air-canada-from-pearson-intl-to-fiumicino-leonardo-da-vinci-intl/ac/yyz/fco) > > [Flair Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/Flair-Airlines-Flights.cF8.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Lyon (LYS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/lys/montreal-to-lyon) > > [Flights from Saskatoon (YXE) to Minneapolis - St. Paul (MSP)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxe/msp/saskatoon-to-minneapolis) > > [Flights from Lima (LIM) to Cancun (CUN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lim/cun/lima-to-cancun) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Philadelphia (PHL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/phl/winnipeg-to-philadelphia) > > [Flights from Cassidy (YCD) to British Columbia (YMP)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ycd/ymp/nanaimo-to-port-mcneill) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yeg/toronto-to-edmonton) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Guangzhou (CAN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/can/toronto-to-guangzhou) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Comox (YQQ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/yqq/ottawa-to-comox) ### Activities > [Things to do in Cowichan Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Cowichan-Bay.d180426.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Meadowvale Cemetery](https://www.expedia.ca/Meadowvale-Cemetery-Fletchers-Creek-South.d553248621532864965.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Mexico](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/117/Mexico) > > [Split Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Split.d3255.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Universal City Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Universal-City.d56016.Destination-Travel-Guides) ### General > [Visit Van Nuys](https://www.expedia.ca/Van-Nuys.dx3726) > > [Visit Mono](https://www.expedia.ca/Mono.dx3000464724) > > [Visit Kelowna Central Business District](https://www.expedia.ca/Kelowna-Kelowna-Central-Business-District.dx6270061)
