Description:

The Washpen Chalet is a self contained cottage built from Douglas fir  timber milled on the property. It is situated in the middle of our sheep, cattle and deer farm and is well away from the Homestead ensuring your privacy and security.

The Chalet is surrounded by tussock and bordered on one side by native bush and a beautiful trout stream.

We are situated south-west of Christchurch on the Inland Scenic Route at Windwhistle which is an easy 50 minute drive from Christchurch International Airport or 6 minutes from the Rakaia Gorge and 15 minutes from the Mt Hutt (ski field) access road.

Activities:
While staying on our property you can explore our famous Washpen Falls Canyon which takes you through an ancient volcano full of coves, waterfalls, Maori history, fantastic geology and botany with stunning views in all directions. This is a wonderful two hour adventure.
We are also members of the Lake Coleridge Basin Tourism Group which includes jet boating, salmon and trout fishing, the international Terrace Downs golf course, horse trekking, farm tours and garden walks, ski fields and big game hunting. All very close by.
