The location is everything… right next to the reserve where children played n on Sunday the markets were right there! B n B was very well equipped with kitchen utensils bedding n kids games etc. V small neg was lack of clothes line or dryer as it rained most of our stay. We managed with the rack provided. Loved our stay.

We’re really glad to hear you loved the location and that being right by the reserve and markets was such a highlight for your stay. It’s great to know the home was well equipped and worked well for the whole family. Thank you for your note about the laundry facilities, and we appreciate your flexibility during the wet weather. Thank you for choosing Bachcare, and we’d love to welcome you back again.
This property is right in Arrowtown by the village green.
Excellent location for wondering into town. It has a beautiful outlook from the lounge onto the trees in the green.
A warm, well equipped bach with all you need for a relaxing stay.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a positive review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and we hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again in the future. Thanks again for choosing to stay with us!
Great location, comfortable living area, nice welcoming touch with the bottle of wine.
Minor things - a dishwasher, a hairdryer and a dryer would enhance the property.
Would happily stay again though.
All perfect. Maybe a bit better explanation on how to turn on the heater would have been nice. Other than that it was lovely

Not the best house in the best location
This is not a very nice house, the location is great, but the house is old, shabby, rundown, with old furnishings that don’t match.
