Property information

Garden Cottage is located within the tranquility of Parkbrae Estate, Lake Tekapo. This is one of the oldest homes in the village, and is within close proximity to the Church of the Good Shepherd and the Tekapo Footbridge. Imagine yourself unwinding with your favourite beverage on the deck, while listening to the birds singing in the trees and looking out to the view of the lake and the church.
