Methven is OK, but not a patch on Queenstown or Wanaka. It's quite a long drive up to Mt Hutt from town. The mountain is pretty decent though.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Methven is basically a small rural town built around a crossroads. One side of the crossroads is The Blue Pub, the other side is The Brown Pub. The latter is a little more agricultural (has a good meat raffle). Both are good country pubs. There's also the Last Post restaurant bar which is well worth a look and AQUA a friendly little Japanese restaurant. I liked Methven, but it is pretty quiet in a friendly sort of way. There was a crowd of British and other seasonaires who gathered at The Last Post last time I was there. Mt Hutt is also small, but there's a lot of fun to be squeezed out of it.

I've spent time in Christchurch and Mt Hutt (summer). Christchurch has a lot going on, MH is small.
My kids were in Australia just before Christmas, they were shocked at the cost of stuff when converted back to sterling. The NZD usually follows pretty closely. If your lad is being paid in NZD, it may not be a concern.
Look thoroughly into those NZ qualifications. Our eldest is BASI L2 SB, she works with a couple of NZ qualified girls and I think that I heard her say that the NZ qualification doesn't match up to BASI in Europe. I cant remember why.
