    Jenna prepared everything we needed for living and breakfast, the house had an exceptionally beautiful view and was the most satisfying accommodation I had on the trip. Bicycles were also provided for us and the house is next to a walkway that...

Beautiful private loft apartment situated in quiet street 2 mins drive from the airport. Surround with amazing views and with the river and reserve on your door step this is a relaxing and beautiful space to enjoy Queenstown. With Remarkables ski field close by and the walking and biking tracks leaving from the front door you are in the heart of all the action but surrounded by beauty. We provide 2 bikes and huge amounts of local information so you can enjoy Queenstown the way the locals do. This loft apartment is attached to our main house but is fully separate with its own entrance, bathroom and living. Please be aware that there is a spiral staircase to the upstairs level. There is a standard size fridge, kettle and toaster and we provide continental breakfast for you. There is no full kitchen. Smart TV with Netflix & Freeview. Enjoy the stunning walking and biking tracks that are on your door step while being surrounded by awesome views of the The Remarkables mountains and coronet peak. Situated walking distance from cafes and restaurants while being so close to the river and reserve lets you enjoy the area by foot or by bike.
We love to meet people and share all the amazing places with you that we love so we can give you lots of local info on where to go if you like. Happy for you also to have your own privacy if this is what you prefer.
We love that we are so close to everything yet can walk out of our door and walk for hours along the river and not see a soul. You can jump on the bikes and hit the tracks at the front door that take you around the Wakatipu basin and right into QT. If you fancy a nice breakfast, dinner or even just a coffee then it's all just 10 mins walk away. It's such a quiet sunny road with beautiful views close to the river and only 15 mins walk from the lake. If you love the outdoors and relaxing then you will love this location.
