Sally & Steve
Arthouse Botanic Lake Tekapo's most contemporary home where the building is an art work in itself. Fastidiously restored.

On the mid level is a double bedroom and a king single bedroom, bathroom and toilet The loft level has a huge bedroom with king size bed, ensuite bathroom and walk in wardrobe. Plantation shutters filter the beautiful alpine light into each space. Please note, unfortunately the Arthouse is not suitable for children under 12 years of age.
Sally and Steve live locally and operate a number of accommodation sites within Tekapo. They are passionate about providing a unique guest experience, and the local area they call home.
To make the most of your upcoming Lake Tekapo stay, please visit the official Lake Tekapo Visitors Website for the latest in dining, activities, shopping and services. Due to limited dining options, we suggest booking in advance for evening dining. Tekapo is an International Dark Sky Reserve and is great for looking at the stars. The night tour options are in the ACTIVITIES tab under STARGAZING. Roundhill Ski area is just a quick 35 minute drive from the Tekapo village. For great family skiing and the most amazing view from the cafe, it is well worth the drive. The season kicks off 2nd July to 19th September subject to snowfall. We can also recommend a massage at Tekapo Springs Glacial Day Spa. If this is of interest, you can book online in advance. There are also great walking and bike riding trail options. Some of these start right in town and offer great photo opportunities. Horse Trekking is available in Tekapo. Please contact Mackenzie Alpine Horse Trekking Bike hire is available in the village from Bespoke Bike Tours.
