Book a South Island Cottage

"Great stay, exceeded our expectations."

"We spent two nights in this excellent two bedroom cottage 15 minutes walk from Chch CBD. The cottage is spacious with separate dining and lounge areas which were very warm and comfortablewith elegant decor. The bedrooms were also spacious and comfortable. The well equipped galley kitchen provided everything we needed to self cater. Danielle is a very professional host and her communication about the property was timely and comprehensive. As with Danielle’s other property near Akaroa (Maison du...

"Absolutely loved our stay at the Boathouse. The location in wine country is perfect- you can easily walk to several wineries, and the home itself was well stocked with all the supplies you need. I also need to comment on the decor- well styled and so adorable- everything is so well pulled together and quaint. We used the outdoor tub every night and enjoyed the stars too. Totally recommend."

"We enjoyed our stay in this lovely house in Christchurch! It was beautifully decorated, very comfortable, and well provisioned. The location worked well with a grocery store within walking distance and quick access to central Christchurch. We would definitely stay here again!"

"Everything you could ever want is here :) It was all so neat and tidy. It is a lovely, quiet location. To open up the curtains in the morning to the ocean and the Southern Alps is just breathtaking, not to mention seeing dolphins in the bay as well. It was a shame to have to go home and we would definitely want to stay here should we ever be down that way again. An absolutely amazing place to stay :)"

"Wonderful Position high up in the Gibbston Valley. Best bit of land to stay on in the whole district"

"The property is exactly as I pictured it would be, the perfect location to explore the South Island of New Zealand. The size of the house was perfect for my wife and me and it was equipped for a small fajitas dinner and a couple of small breakfasts. The only issue was that the views from the property made it hard to leave since it was so breathtaking. We can’t wait to come back!"

"Great little place to stay for two people. Comfortable bed, nice and warm, would definitely recommend! Thank you!"

"Very well looked after property, with wonderful views."

"we really enjoy a quite time and staying in your apartment with the view."

"Very tidy and well equipped, everything you need for a for a weekend away."

"Our only complaint with this property were the beds. They were very soft and worn. We were a group of two couples travelling. All 4 of us had bad sleeps on the two beds and complained of sore backs. Good beds are so important. The rest of the cottage was locked lovely. "

"A house with a fabulous view. Very comfortable with everything you need. It perfectly suited our group of 6. It was a great location with everything on your doorstep, park the car and walk/cycle to everything. We loved our time there."

"Very much enjoyed our short stay. Beautifully situated above Kaikoura, quiet, clean and spacious with lovingly equipped kitchen. Walking tracks all around with great views. Only suggestion would be to have a heater in Bathroom as it gets very cold. Saw a great sunrise over the sea. "

"A must stay if you don’t need to stay in Queenstown "

"We thought the property was delightful, had great ambience, practical, had everything we needed and was conducive to relaxation and peace, romantic getaway. Delightful hide away nestled in Governors Bay. Good base to explore banks peninsular. Just what we needed."

"Beautiful, magnificent views of the landscape, quiet, peaceful, fresh air, safe and secure. I didn't like the dining chairs. Unsafe to sit on as they are on an incline. My daughter-in-law fell backwards while sitting on the chair while her son was sitting on her lap. She nearly hit her head against the wooden bench. No freezer available and no exhaust fan above the cooking stove. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Crow's Nest holiday home. Thank you."

"May have left a jacket in the wardrobe and do not know how to contact the owner. Will send them a stamped addrressed pack to return it to me. Many thanks"

"This place was perfect for our holiday. We’ve stayed at a few places in Arrowtown over the years and this would be our favourite. Everything we needed, great location, comfortable and so clean. Many thanks - we hope to return!"

"We loved staying at Tree Cottage. It's a charming 'old-school' bach, just perfect for a cosy weekend away. Lindsey was a great host, with really good communication before and during our stay."

"We recommend to stay at La Quinta for Queenstown trip, very remarkable stay."

"The apartment was very spacious, clean and the heating was sufficient. Just be aware that one needs to be physically able to drag the luggage up a steep walk way as there is no lift."

"Major lift repairs changed the atmosphere a bit. Friendly staff who were attentive. Comfy bed and clean room. Would stay again."
