Guest access Located on the outskirts of Fairlie, Te Manahuna is conveniently situated halfway between Queenstown and Christchurch, and just 35 minutes from Lake Tekapo. All of the modern conveniences and amenities you could need are a short 5-minute drive away in the township of Fairlie, including the famous pies from Fairlie Bakehouse. We recommend having your own transport to the property which is accessible from SH8. On-site parking is available. Other things to note We look forward to welcoming you to this amazing space. We simply ask that you respect these guidelines during your stay: Please be mindful of the quiet environment and our neighbours by keeping noise to a minimum after 10 PM. Please don’t light any fires, as Te Manahuna is situated in a rural area and open flames pose a threat to people’s homes, businesses, and livelihoods. Please refrain from smoking inside the tiny house, for the wellbeing of future guests.
