Southern Comfort in Twizel. Free WIFI, Fire, Walk to Town

Slow down, stretch out, and stay awhile at Southern Comfort — a warm, welcoming 3-bedroom home in the heart of Twizel.

Step into the charm of a classic 1960s hydro home, lovingly renovated with comfort in mind. Set on a huge private section with a wraparound deck and spacious lawn, it's the perfect spot for soaking in the alpine air under starry skies.

Whether you're here to fish the canals, cycle the Alps 2 Ocean trail, ski the mountains, or simply unwind, Southern Comfort offers space, style, and that hard-to-find feeling of ease.

Newly renovated and full of “southern comfort,” this home brings together the best of classic Twizel charm with modern simplicity.

The Neighbourhood

Twizel is a hidden gem in the Mackenzie District—known for its big skies, clear nights, and endless outdoor adventures.

You’re just:
- 3 mins walk to town centre (supermarket, cafés, pub, and great coffee)
- 5 mins drive to Lake Ruataniwha (boating, paddleboarding, swimming)
- 10 mins to the famous canal fishing spots
- 20 mins to Lake Pukaki and Aoraki/Mt Cook scenic drive
- Steps from the Alps 2 Ocean Cycle Trail

It’s a four-season playground: biking, hiking, fishing, skiing at Ōhau, and star-gazing at some of the clearest skies in the world.

-----------
Whether you’re looking for adventure or a quiet place to recharge, we hope Southern Comfort becomes a place you return to again and again.

We’re always just a message away if you need anything during your stay.
