The cottage was perfect for what we required. Once cleaned it was great. The cleaner's do a great job. Having use of a good washing machine and dryer was fantastic. Shower was brilliant. Can't fault this cottage and we were able to email anything we felt needed to be addressed. Kitchen had ample clean cooking facilities, although a non-stick fry pan should be provided. Trying to clean the one provided was a mission. Highly recommended 👌

Very beautiful property with everything that you ever need. Fantastic view of the Queenstown Airport is a must-stay for aviation geeks. Even if you are not, be prepared to be stunned by the beautiful sunset.

The space was lovely and clean with a gorgeous view toward Queenstown. I love watching the planes and helicopters fly in and out. We live under a flight path in Australia but if you’re not used of it, this could be a problem- location isn’t far from Queenstown airport and flight path is beside the cottages. Great amenities in the cottage but they are missing a dishwashing draining rack, the microwave is too high and hard to read, and they need more helpful information in the compendium, eg: there is a day night convenience store up the road that sells the most delicious pies and snag rolls, local attractions etc. The road in and out of Queenstown is always busy. The parking prices in Queenstown are so expensive ($6.00 an hour, $3.50 half hour etc). We really enjoyed our stay and location but also prices over Christmas period were expensive too.

Terrific location if you want a relaxed self cooking place that has amazing views. The outlook is amazing and Arrowtown and Queenstown are only a short drive. It is in a suburban location so no restaurants etc.

Pretty and comfortable. Only one concern is that the cleaning staff were walking in front of our room which has large windows and this reduced our privacy at that time.

Comfortable and spacious cottage. Modern appliances and facilities. Great that there was a kitchenette and laundry available to use. If possible, would recommend moving the microwave, it’s too high for someone short like me and not safe when taking out hot food. Beautiful views outside of the mountains. Not too far away is the lake to walk/sit along. The room was decently cleaned, however did notice a few cobwebs around the walls - only really noticeable in certain light though. One downside was the wifi that kept cutting out for me :/ Location is very close to airport so keep in mind you can hear planes flying over, if that really bothers you. Other than that, still highly recommend this cottage to stay in!

Location location location applies to this property. Very nice spot in great area. Property is clean but lacks attention to detail. Large space but lacks on the little things that makes your stay that bit better and would qualify for 5stars all over. Non coffee table, no little tables to put drinks on, lousy internet. Had to use my sim data. I would return for sure but a little more attention to the minimal things would add so much.
