- "We came here to enjoy the club fields, no accommodation was any closer as it was last minute but we didn’t mind as still only an hour away. The photos really do not do this place justice, it is such a cool spot. Everything you could need, warm (once the fire is roaring). Be prepared to be cold at first if you stay over winter. It’s super accommodating to families but we would stay here with just friends also. Train track is close by but does not disturb your stay and it became a highlight of our stay for our daughter."

Guest Reviews:

- "We enjoyed our stay at Mark and Kay’s cabin in Castle Hill! We were close to the walks we wanted to do around Arthur’s Pass. The area is beautiful and without many people on the beautiful trails in the area. The cabin was very comfortable and had all the amenities we needed." - "The house itself is spacious and warm with all the modern conveniences such as high-speed wifi. The fantastic connectivity of the place allowed myself and others to work remotely over the week with ease. The house also boasts many bedrooms and beds. There are a couple of odd concessions you have to make for the stay which I put down to the isolation of the village. A fantastic launch point for adventures in Arthur's Pass National Park, Craigieburn Forest Park and even the Tourless tussocklands which are all within 30minutes or less of the village. In the winter a fantastic launch point for snow activities being spitting distance from Porters, Cheeseman, Craigieburn and Broken River ski areas"

- "We enjoyed the beautiful landscape and many trails to walk with our young children. We skimmed stones at the river and liked the new park playground. The cottage was very clean, warm, inviting and had everything we needed for our week stay. Thank you. " - "Super location for a quiet get away. Surrounded by spacious mountains and rural life. An older property that took us back to our childhood. But very comfortable with lots of extra bits and pieces rather than a sterile unit. We really enjoyed the rest and quiet. Close to nowhere worked really well for us. Great communication. "

Guest Reviews:

- "A week in castle hill with our family in winter. somehow the photos don't quite do it justice - the main living area is stylish (tho furniture not so much) and welcoming. the upstairs is good with overflow space in the loft for teenagers who want to spread out. wooden floors make it a bit noisy. the house warms and holds its heat well. the carport under the house keeps ice off the car windscreen. the kitchen is well appointed tho the oven confusing. one gotcha is no microwave for those used to one, and take some power boards if you have as many gadgets to charge as we have. there are only 4 bar stools around the kitchen bench and no dinner table. wifi worked well - essential for our kids. we'd definitely stay again - thanks!"

Guest Reviews:

- "Perfect weekend in Castle Hill village, modern house with beautiful view, just sit in the couche and watch the sunlight on the mountains" - "Lounge was relaxing, fire was lovely. Pillows and sheets were not sanitised between guests but they were washed. Unfortunately, the duvet and sheets upstairs smelled like vomit. The sinks and bathrooms hadn't been cleaned properly and smelled a little sicky, obviously the guests who stayed before us had a virus. We developed noro virus 2 days after staying at the property, due to it not being bleached properly. But, the host was a very nice person so who knows if they were told. They may not have picked up on the sick smell like I did. I wouldn't stay here for several months until the noro has become inactive. House is well worth staying in but ensure cleanliness from host before entering. There was toothpaste on the mirrors and taps so I felt like I was cleaning up after others and couldn't relax. There was dirty laundry in the washing machine and a bucketfull of dryer fluff in the laundy and downstairs was very dusty. I have been told the dryer will be replaced. We received a message a couple of hours before giving entry instructions but also advising us that we had to clean the house. This should have been stated on the main listing. I advised the owner that the upstairs duvet inner that smelled like vomit needs to be replaced and that we got sick but received no reply. Also advised old yellow pillows need to be replaced. "
