We (2A, 2C) stayed in cottage 1 for 2 nights. The photos do not do the cottage justice as it is quite luxurious and spacious and far better than any motel rooms we have seen in the area. One queen bed is adjacent to living areas and there is one separate bedroom with a queen plus space for a fold... More

Nice location with view of Franz Josef Glacier. Property has miniature horses and other a larger horses. During our visit there was a ?4 month old filly that our 3 children (well, all of us) fell in love with her. Cottage was clean and had everything we needed, including extra blankets for chilly nights and a floor heater. Room arrangement... More

Our family of three stayed 2 nights in bedroom 2. I loved the fact the the cabins were all freestanding, making it feel like we were alone. The view of the glaciers from our room was spectacular. It was such a privilege to have this view while we were snugged up inside our room. The accommodation was clean and everything... More

We stayed at cottage no 3. Two queen bed each in one bedroom with an additional bed making it comfortable for 5 ppl. Free DVD and WiFi which was weak and only reachable in the porch. Excellent farm with horse ranch around which the kids just adored. Friendly owners who shared some knowledge about horse keeping. Overall good value for... More

Only a 2 minute drive from town, in a quiet location with great views. Spacious with a small kitchenette and a lovely veranda. Clean cottages, laundry facilities available and wifi available. We had a very relaxing few nights at the glacier cottages, perfect for friends, families and couples. Would stay again and recommend to other travellers.

As part of my NZ tour last year, I stayed at one of these cottages at Franz Josef Glacier as the price was reasonable. This cottage is located just outside the township. The cottage came with a bedroom and two queen sized beds, one which is located in the open area (it's like a room without any door) towards the... More

I'd read mixed reviews about these cottages, older towels and crockery etc, and they were right, the towels have seen better days but most of kitchen utensils were fine. The compendium said we would get fresh towels and garbage removed every day, which we didn't, but I'm sure if i asked it would not have been a problem.All the furniture... More

My family of four stayed in Cottage 2 during the April School holidays. It was one of the cheapest places we stayed on our trip, so our expectations weren't too high. It was a pleasant surprise, therefore, to discover a cosy cottage in a lovely location. Service was friendly and the cottage was clean. There were free DVDs on loan... More

We had cottage no 2, which was a two bedroom unit. The units are comfortable and well equipped. The cottages are ~2 km out of town and you can walk down to the river or sit on the deck and admire the mountains and the glacier.
