As you open the door to this idyllic holiday home, prepare yourself for the breathtaking outlook that awaits. Floor to ceiling glass provides the perfect artwork for the open-plan living spaces, while stylish furnishings create a modern yet comfortable design throughout.
Make yourself a cuppa and sink into the leather couch with a book; you might get a few pages to read if you can drag your eyes off the view. Or, get comfy in the TV room, log in to your Netflix account on the Smart TV and free WIFI, and catch up on that show everyone’s been talking about.
The fully equipped kitchen offers everything you’ll need to prepare delicious holiday meals, or serve up a charcuterie platter to accompany the Pinot Noir you picked up at a local vineyard. A butler’s kitchen provides plenty of storage, and the open-plan design means no-one needs to be left out of the conversation.
Four bedrooms offer everyone their own space to retreat to here at Vino and Views. Each with a queen bed and doors that open out to the balcony and its stunning valley views, the master also features an ensuite bathroom. A second bathroom offers a large shower, as well as a luxurious stand-alone tub to soak in.
The whole home is kept warm and toasty on those mid-year getaways thanks to heat pumps and a heat exchange system. On those hot summer days either turn on the air-conditioning or open up the windows and doors and let the mountain breeze flow through.
The outdoor living spaces here at Vino and Views are simply spectacular. With a long deck along the length of the house and a sheltered spot that wraps around the living room, there are a plethora of options to enjoy a glass of wine and good conversation. Spark up the BBQ and dine alfresco as the sun goes down.
Vino and Views is perfectly located to enjoy the nearby vineyards, restaurants, and cafes, while still offering you your own slice of paradise to enjoy. Cromwell is only five minutes away by car, and a nearby river inlet is ideal for jet-skiing and swimming. There are also lovely walking trails offering the perfect spot to stretch the legs and take in the scenery.
Speaking of scenery, check out the night photography of the Aurora, taken and kindly sent through by guest Shane, featured in the gallery of this listing. There is a section of the deck without a barrier, where there is a small drop on to grass and a steep slope down a rocky bank. All guests should take care when using this area due to the risk of falls, and children should be closely monitored.
Guests should be aware the pictured fireplace and garage is not available for use.
Access to this property is via a steep, metal driveway.

This was the 5th and final VRBO we had stayed in over our 6 week New Zealand vacation and the best was saved for last. The views were amazing and the home was extremely comfortable.

Thank you so much for your kind review! We're thrilled to hear you love the view and we hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again in the future. Thanks again for choosing to stay with us!
The week long stay was absolutely amazing!! The accommodation was perfect… Bannockburn really turned on the weather and the locals were so lovely!! Great coffee shop a short walk down the road. Would recommend a thousand times over!! We were all very sad to leave. Thankyou for such a beautiful properly… I wouldn’t change a thing…
We must admit, we had high expectations when we made this booking and they were more than met when opening the front door. This property with the superb location, modern facilities and impeccable design is well worth it. Recommend you take the opportunity to stay here (extended family works well with the four queen sized rooms).
This was the perfect place for our family during a really tough time. The view was unequalled, the house beautiful and modern and super comfortable. With 2 disabled people in our group we all felt included and able in this house, all on one level with ample space to move and adjustable areas so everyone ws able to find the comfort they were looking for.
