Your Hosts Viv and Charles
Having visited Twin Gullies in January 2021 we immediately fell in love with its 1880's character, incredible views, and the unique stand-alone private accommodation we can offer to our guests. The previous owners have developed Twin Gullies into what it is today and we feel privileged and excited to continue their work. We love meeting new and interesting people. Having traveled extensively throughout Europe, North Africa, Middle East, Far East, South East Asia, and North America, we imagine hearing and sharing many stories and experiences. Charles is a keen tramper and mountaineer and would be thrilled to share his knowledge of the beautiful South Island. We look forward to welcoming you to our piece of paradise. ​ Viv and Charles Twin Gullies
Twin Gullies is well placed providing quick access to local attractions. We are less than ten minutes drive to Akaroa township, two minutes to the Golf Course, one minute to the local pub which offers great meals and a truly friendly atmosphere. In the other direction its one minute to Barry's Bay Cheese Factory and five minutes beyond that to the Alpaca Farm.
