Holiday rentals near Geraldine Observatory

The home was very comfortable and the bath amazing. A bit of a drive to get supplies, got excellent steaks at Geraldine butcher thought.

The view is beyond belief.. stunning. So is the environment. It was backed up by a level of care and attention to detail that many could learn from. The rooms were warm (important for folk used to a warm climate ). The bed was super comfortable, there were lots of pillows, extra covers.. There was a good coffee machine. Everything worked. There were well written instructions to everything. Would highly recommend.

We were thrilled on arrival at this beautiful bach. The facilities were excellent and the property was incredibly well insulated as advertised. It was such a joy to stay here.

What a great place - in the middle of a farm, totally private, gorgeous cherry blossoms from every window with paddocks and mountains in the background. Spotless, comfy (double) bed, air conditioning, great TV channels, oil heater if needed as well as bathroom heater and even managed to fit in a washing machine. Above and beyond our expectations - the shampoo, conditioner, body wash were divine. Highly recommend - easy to get takeaway in Ashburton 20 minutes away if you don't want to cook.

Small but homely and cosy. Beautiful garden to spend time in. Kind hosts. Would like to spend longer next time.

Spacious room with balcony. Kitchen area and bathroom/toilet were more than adequate.Hosts provided us with breakfast and homemade goodies which we thought was particularly nice guesture. Would stay here again when in Geraldine. Hosts were very welcoming.

We loved our stay at this gorgeous kiwi Bach in Peel Forest. Highly recommend to fellow travellers. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Surrounded by bush and listening to the birds sing in the trees is so peaceful. An easy place to relax and enjoy nature around you. Walks amongst the forest at your doorstep. The house itself was so cute! Perhaps a few more plates/bowls etc in the kitchen and the beds weren’t the most comfy. Perhaps toppers would be an easy solution. Despite this, we would love to return to the peace and tranquility of this lovely spot. Thank you for having us!

We stayed for 26 nights. Easy check in and check out. Clean, modern and comfortable accommodation located on beautiful farmland with fantastic views of the snow-capped mountains. Great heating and cooling and always nice and warm despite the very cool temperature outside. Cows and sheep roam the paddocks nearby. Timaru, Geraldine and surrounding suburbs are an easy drive away. Great location for drives to Mount Cook, Dunedin, Lake Tekapo, Ashburton, Christchurch etc. Very comfortable bed and very fast WiFi. Graham is a terrific, friendly host. He was there to greet us on arrival and to say goodbye on our departure. He was only a phone call away if anything was needed and he was very responsive. After almost a month it felt like home and we were reluctant to finally leave. We would definitely stay there again. Thanks Graham.
