Mt John Homestead
About
In South Island, Mt John Homestead is a chalet at 19 Tekapo-Twizel Road, Lake Tekapo 7999. The setting places it in the Lake Tekapo area, with Queenstown, Christchurch, Wanaka, Te Anau and Dunedin all within the wider South Island network of towns.
Guests booking a chalet here can expect self-contained accommodation in a quiet lakeside settlement, with the website at http://www.thecairns.co.nz/ covering the property. Eleven reviews give the homestead a 4.8 out of 5 rating, so the feedback is limited in number but consistently strong. Blenheim, Nelson and Kaikoura sit further along the same island, giving guests a sense of how the homestead fits into a wider South Island itinerary.
Traffic drives on the left across New Zealand, and hire cars are the usual way to travel on the larger islands, which suits a stay in a small town. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names appear throughout the country.
New Zealand sits on the boundary of the Pacific and Australian tectonic plates, so small earthquakes are common.
