This is the most amazing place with the most amazing hosts! We had a fantastic time whilst in Te Anau, would be hard only staying 1 night so lucky we were there for 3!!!
Our room was so lovingly set up and very comfortable with heating on ( its still real chilly in Te Anau morning and night), we were warm and happy and loved coming back after days of activity. So good to see Kiwi's supporting these gorgeous small towns and all that Fiordland has to offer and Radfords was the perfect place to stay with the fanastic views of the lake and lots of sun getting into the rooms. Also close to everything so we could walk to restaurants etc.
Thank you Kerri and your team, you do such a good job and we had a giggle or two, so easy to chat with you and have a laugh even though these are trying times for the tourism industry!

Dear Karen

Wow, thank you for such a glowing report of your time with us, you were all truely a great bunch, making the very best of what Fordland has to offer. We love what we do and helping our guests with recommendations and sharing our local knowledge of what Fiordland has to offer.

We have been overwelmed with how Kiwis are seeing there own back yard, and going away with many fond memories of their time here.

Wishing you all the very best and I hope we can showcase more of what Fiordland has to offer on another occassion.

Warmest Wishes and Kind Regards Kerri and Steve

Radfords on the Lake is an incredibly charming and lovely place. The hotel has been beautifully renovated. Rooms are wonderful. Beds are the most comfortable you can imagine. The rooms have very lovely will appointed kitchenettes. We had two rooms. One suite had two bedrooms. It's especially nice how there are king beds and single beds in the rooms which is great for a large family like ours. Kerri James is the most accommodating host. This place is truly five stars and centrally located within walking distance to all the wonderful restaurants and attractions. Our family will definitely return!

Room tip: We loved the two bedroom Suite No. 6.

We recently spent a night at Radfords on the Lake and couldn't have chosen a better place to stay!
We were greeted by Kerri, the lovely host, who filled us in on what we needed to do the following day. A quick phone call and she had us booked on a cruise of Milford Sound, and then provided sensible and helpful advice regarding getting to and from Milford Sound.
She also offered great advice on where to eat!
Our room was warm, beautifully furnished, and the bed was super comfortable. We were also lucky enough to have a couple of visits from Dexter, the resident Ragdoll cat!
Thank you Kerri - we will be back!!
