About this house rental
This unique lifestyle property, aptly named "Owls Rest", is a place to unwind and relax. Switch off from the hustle and bustle of your busy life. With a Yurt as your accommodation what more could you need? The adjacent cottage has a fully operational bathroom with a HWC, so hot showers instead of the glamping solar bags!! The indoor/outdoor cooking facilities are almost as good as your own kitchen, everything (except an oven) and the kitchen sink! You have the whole place to yourself so stroll around this 20 acre rural retreat and sit at the top of the hill on our special seat to watch the sun rise or sun set. Admire the 360 views of the Manuherikia valley, Manorburn dam, right across to the "Remarkables". See if you can spot our resident Owl in his nesting tree. Enjoy the cosy feel of this amazing Mongolian Yurt that is quaint and relaxing. With the Cental Otago rail trail 5 minutes away, the iconic Chatto creek pub 7 minutes down the road and Clyde a stones' throw away, there are options to spread your wings but return to your cosy retreat at the end of the day.

We enjoyed revisiting the Yurt experience! The location is so peaceful, and the property has everything you would need for glamping. Communication with the owners was great and they checked in to see if we had settled in.

Such a beautifully decorated yurt, in the best location. Woke up to the sound of birds singing and the sun shining through. Absolutely beautiful. We will be back.
