Spacious and has everything you need for a short stay. Close to some incredible wineries and the Motorsport park. We stayed here to run the Queenstown marathon and loved the location because we got to experience all the areas on route to Queenstown. The views of the snow capped ranges was quite special too.

A wonderful stay – again! This was my second visit to the cottage, and it was just as fantastic as the first time. Everything about the place feels cosy and warm, making it a perfect retreat. The location is spot-on – peaceful yet convenient – and the hosts are truly welcoming, going above and beyond to make sure everything is just right. One of the real highlights is the breakfast – a massive bonus that sets this place apart. It’s clear a lot of care and thought goes into every detail, and it shows. I’ll definitely be back again. Highly recommended!

House was tidy, clean and well laid out. Perfect for a family with teenagers. Kitchen well equipped. Fireplace in living room kept us cosy. Fireplace was set when we arrived. Wonderful view of the snowcapped mountains from the dining table. Plenty of extra blankets supplied. Heaters available in bedrooms. Spa was amazing. House was dog friendly. Quiet neighbourhood. Located close to Wanaka and ski fields.

Location was absolutely breathtaking, loved that we could see animals out and about while we walked around. The spa was wonderful and the room was surprisingly warm and cosy considering its winter! We came for my husband’s birthday and was the icing on the cake of our trip! Great attention to detail too, like robes, slip ons, chair/tables that were easy to manoeuvre around for whatever you need! Perfect! Location, Vibe, Hot tub and cute lil cabin!

Quaint little stone cottage, easy parking and check in, so close to everything we needed including restaurants, movies and bike hire. It was very cold while we were there but the cottage was lovely and warm, would 💯 recommend.

Gorgeous cottage style accommodation, spotlessly clean, cosy with great beds. The owners are both lovely and couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful. Very short walk into the centre of Arrowtown. Charming and recommended.

Stunning cottages - absolute luxury! The fireplace was such a fantastic treat. Everything was top quality and very stylish. Having the food truck and winery and cottages all together was superb.

The whole vibe of the house is amazing! It is cute and pretty, warm welcoming, cosy and give you a feeling of peace. We could have stayed chilling in the house for few days ! Owners was helpful with everything, put heater on at night and light the fireplace. Everything and more is in this house. It's like a little getaway itself, a pause in time. Easy to walk to main spot in Oamaru. Will definitely come back !
