Both Jane and her husband are a lovely couple and took very good care of my wife and me during our stay at the Green Cottage with them early this month. Lovely breakfast beautiful cottage and very good surrounding and very peaceful. They guided us very well to the sightseeing in and around Te Anau. One evening we enjoy making... More

We had 3 nights in this cottage and it was a great place to stay. It is self contained, comfortable, very clean, quiet and full of charm. The verandah overlooks the lake and we had our dinner out there each night soaking up the peace and quiet. We were only interrupted by the owner's cat who came to check us... More

We stayed in the green cabin for a couple of nights as part of a month long tour of NZ and it was just lovely. Self contained, it's a great location just a few km out of Te Anau. Comfortable bed and lovely window seats offer a homely feel. Jane was very welcoming and helpful and provided a tasty breakfast... More

We booked this from the UK via TA, and it was everything it promised to be. Totally self-contained chalet/cottage in terms of accommodation, spacious and with a basic kitchen if you want one, but Jane serves breakfast in the main house, just a few seconds walk. Very friendly and accommodating, with great views over the lake to the mountains beyond.... More

This is a beautiful place in every way. The cottage (green) was superb featuring all amenities including good wifi internet access. Jane is a wonderful host and my wife in particular loved chatting with her over breakfast each morning. This is one of those places where you just wish you could have stayed much longer. Outstanding.

The combination of a very comfortable, well set-up little cottage, a very quiet location (with sheep), beautiful views down to the lake and a wonderfully warm welcome from a very kindly, attentive and interesting hostess made our two days in the Blue Cottage amongst the most memorable of our month in New Zealand. The cottage is extremely comfortable with a... More

after 2 weeks on the road we've had it with back aching beds. But since Te Anau is quite a tourist trap we ended up testing the beds in 5 different locations downtown. We were so glad when we checked out this "last option" on the list (since it is not exactly downtown) and found the sweetest of all B&B's... More

My first view from the Green cottage just took my breath away!! And when we met Jane.... Her friendly manner n warmth took away the fatigue of the long drive to Te anu. What a tasty welcome Brownie!!! And the next day had an early start to the day... So she packed us a Gormet picnic lunch, for a small... More

Thank you very much for your great hospitality, Jane & Ross! We very much enjoyed our stay for regretably only 2 nights in your wonderful green cottage. What a cozy perfect place to stay in such a beautiful surrounding, flowers blooming everywhere, situated in the middle of the lawn. We could watch the sheep from our cottage. What a peaceful... More

Another slice of New Zealand heaven. We stayed in the green cottage for two days. Jane and Ross are fantastic hosts, they really make you feel welcome and are happy to chat about the local area. All the personal touches of home make this place a wonderful place to stay. Would live to come back!!!! More
