Fabulous House

We spent an extended weekend staying with family for my son’s wedding. The house was spacious and functional for our large group. Great location for family members to discover what Queenstown had to offer. Communication was superb we had to extend a day to fit family flying back to Australia. Would differently love to stay here again. Many many thanks

Very well appointed, lovely linen, great kitchen, very clean and amazing views. Great location and easy access to town, walks and lake. Games , toys for the family. If anything bthe online description does not do all the facilities and the high standard of the house facilities full justice . Internet connection was a bit frustrating at times.Thank you we loved our stay.
