Beautiful French styled cottage nestled amongst the vineyards and has 360 degrees views of stunning mountains. This is a private 3.5 acre historic property which is close to cycle tracks, wineries and ski fields. We are just 10 minutes drive to stunning historic Arrowtown which provides many restaurants, shopping and supermarket. All you need to do is walk across the road to a wonderful restaurant/winery which sells world class wines. There is also many more just a few minutes drive away. The cottage has electric heating by a heatpump and a fire inside and outside if you want to cozy up. You will have warm wooden floors and 100% linen bedding which is dried on a clothesline for freshness ( No charge for linen and towels). We think of every detail so your experience will be special and memorable. You can lounge in your own outdoor bath for two people, under the stars drinking our local wines, and forget all your troubles! If you want to bring your doggie friend we have plenty of space for a dog to run around with secure fencing.
We love to hosts our guests and meet so many different people. We also love to share information about this special area that we live in.
You can walk or hire bikes cycling the Gibbston Trail, hugging the river with amazing views or just sit in a winery and taste the first class wine produced right here! You can drive in any direction to see the lakes, mountains and stunning beauty everywhere!
