About this property
Dark Sky Twizel on Simons Street
Our holiday home, Dark Sky Twizel, is located just 2 minutes walk to the centre of Twizel on a quiet side street with a fully fenced private section. It is also under the Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve, so it’s ideal for stargazing. On clear nights, you can see the Milky Way, planets, and shooting stars (consider bringing binoculars or booking a stargazing tour for an even better experience).
Great base for exploring Mt Cook & hiking.
Note: Hot tub is not available for guests
