About this property

Great house in quiet suburb just minutes shops

This lovely 4 bed 2 bath home is located in the quiet suburb of Quail Rise not far from Queenstown Central Shopping Centre. No matter the season from our warm summers to winters white with snow you can enjoy beautiful walks along the river, mountain bike trails, ski fields, day trips to Arrowtown or Lake Wanaka and starry night skies or you may just wish to sit back and enjoy the view of the Remarkable Mountains with a local Central Otago wine.



Linen, towels and wifi are included in the price.
We use professional cleaners and hired linen to ensure our home is cleaned to the highest standards
A port-a-cot and high chair are available for hire if required - please ask.
The garage is not available for guests to use.

Someone from The Butler will meet guests on arrival - so please provide travel details. Then we will be just a phone call away. Subject to COVID19 regulations the meet & greet may not be possible but we will advise in advance of any changes.
Quail Rise is a quiet residential area. Although you feel like you are away from it all you are so close to shops, restaurants, ski fields and the airport. You also have access to a variety of walking and biking tracks. Less than a 10 minute walk away is the Shotover River and the historic old bridge.
There's even a children's play park, neighbourhood tennis court and basketball hoop within easy walking distance of the house.

You have access to the whole house except the garage which will be locked.

The open plan living area of the house boasts a sunny lounge and dining table which allows you to sit and relax while taking in the views of the Remarkable Mountains. The house has a lovely fully equipped modern kitchen. The wood fire is yelling at you to grab a good book and a drink (wine or coffee depending on the time of day) and making yourself comfortable on the couch - you may never want to leave.

The fully equipped kitchen is a great place to prepare some fantastic local foods for your family or group. Can't you just imagine the smells you could come home to after a days skiing or exploring if you put the slow cooker on before you headed out for the day. We also have a rice cooker, air fryer and sandwich press to give you a variety of cooking options.

There is a cosy TV room featuring a flat screen smart TV which has Free 2 Air and is Netflix capable. We also have a Playstation 4

There are four bedrooms to choose from
Bedroom 1 = King bed with Ensuite
Bedroom 2 = Queen bed
Bedroom 3 = Queen bed
Bedroom 4 = 1 Single bed with the addition of a trundle to make it 2 singles if required

The large backyard is the perfect place for families, couples, friends and large groups. There are two separate outdoor areas including a BBQ and wall hung herb garden. The lush lawns are perfect for the kids to run around on in the long Otago summers.



5 minutes to Five Mile & Queenstown Central Shopping Centre
7 minutes to Queenstown Airport
Less than 15 minutes to downtown Queenstown
15 - 20 minutes drive to the local ski fields
Arrowtown is a pleasant 15 minute drive away
And if you are looking at tasting some of the local wines then some of the wineries are less than 10 minutes away.
(note times mentioned are subject to traffic)

If you wish to take a bus into town the closest stop is less than an 8 minute walk away.

Stay at Apple Tree Cottage
An amazing and comfortable property set in tranquil surroundings, away for the hustle and bustle of the centre of Queenstown, yet easy to get into the centre if needed, and perfectly located for some of the great wineries and attractions arpund and about.

Nice location to get to Remarkables
Good location away from the chaos of downtown if you are looking to get out in see things around Queenstown. Yet, also go to restaurants and services close by.
