Central Methven Chalet – Stylish Comfort in the Heart of Methven
Located just a few minutes’ walk to Methven’s most popular amenities — bars, supermarkets, cafés, and the Mt Hutt Ski Bus — you won’t find a more central spot! Central Methven Chalet blends alpine charm with modern comforts, providing everything you need for a cosy night or a longer stay.

This sun-drenched home offers comfortable beds, modern appliances, a smart TV, and free Fibre Wi-Fi to keep you connected. Please take the time to read our full listing details before booking to ensure it’s the perfect fit for you.

On the ground floor, enjoy a light-filled open-plan lounge that opens via sliding doors to a private patio, a compact and well-equipped kitchen (note: no dishwasher — the perfect excuse to explore Methven’s fantastic eateries!), a modern bathroom with a large vanity and shower, a separate toilet, laundry facilities with storage for skis and boots, and 3 queen bedrooms.

Upstairs, you’ll find two spacious bedrooms with Queen beds, and a shared toilet with vanity. Both upstairs rooms feature skylights, and the first bedroom has an internal look out, overlooking the living area — something to consider if staying with young children.

A heat pump ensures warmth throughout the cooler months, and we provide high-quality, commercially laundered linen for your comfort. The home includes off-street parking and a parking space beside the house. While the driveway is shared with neighbouring properties, the chalet itself has a private, gated entrance off the road.

The home is yours to enjoy in full, and we kindly request all guests respect quiet hours as this is a strictly no-party property. Please note we are located two doors from the Blue Pub, so live music may be heard on weekends.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Take in the views from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.
