Welcome to Twizel Cottages. I'm Coralie, and I've proudly called Twizel home for over 19 years. As a local business owner and real estate professional, I've had the privilege of helping hundreds of people discover and fall in love with this incredible part of New Zealand. The Mackenzie Region is more than just where I live—it's home. From the turquoise waters of Lake Pukaki and the breathtaking beauty of Aoraki/ Mount Cook to the world-renowned Dark Sky Reserve, I love sharing the places, experiences and local knowledge that make this region so special. Twizel Cottages has been thoughtfully created to provide a warm, comfortable and relaxing base for couples, families and friends exploring the Mackenzie. Whether you're here for adventure, stargazing, skiing, cycling, fishing or simply to unwind, I hope you'll feel right at home. I'm passionate about genuine hospitality and ensuring every guest enjoys a memorable stay. If there's anything I can do to make your visit even more enjoyable, or if you're looking for local recommendations, I'd be delighted to help. I look forward to welcoming you to Twizel and sharing a little piece of the place I'm proud to call home.
Twizel is a great town, surrounded by majestic mountains and big landscapes. Market Place is where you find the local shops, cafes and restaurants. We are so close to the lakes and our property is walking distance (10 mins) to Market Place.
