Testimonials

Lovely house, great location and the most amazing views and Queeenstown put on the most amazing weather ever! Blue, blue, blue skies, temps in the 30's even warn enough to swim in Lake Wakitipu! Premier pizza at Winnie's. Went to Anna and Jerry Colemans wedding by the side of Lake Hayes - what a memorable wedding that was!!

Awesome house and Vicky was great to deal with. Would definitely recommend to friends and family to stay here. Just love Queenstown will be back.

The Stewart family 4th - 7th Feb 2010

Our first impression was heaven. Absolutely beautiful set up. Everything you would need, desire & want.

Final Note - Stayed 5 days. Rainy & cold (Day 1), so log fire was fantastic. Sunny all other days. Loved the gondola, luge, shotover jet boat. Did doubtful sound on a beautiful sunny day. Sensational views. The BBQ & dining table are great for visiting family.

Thanks for making our stay luxurious.

It was a great experience, well setup and nice staying arrangements for friends and family members to enjoy. We all partied and used all the facilities to our hearts content as it was an overtly exciting adventure for us. Recommend for staying over next time we're in Queenstown.

Monty Luthena & Family (January 2009)

We'd like to say a big thank you to Mark & Siv for providing such a wonderful holiday house. We "wow"-ed non stop when we first came in and never ceased to be amazed by the cleanliness, the facilities, the views and the effort our hosts had put into the house.

We even made use of the printer for last minute bookings, which was very thoughtfully provided. Our stay here was made so much more enjoyable, Queenstown was beautiful and this house made our holiday even better.

Robson Family (January 2009)

We have all enjoyed our stay here. The views are amazing and the house was awesome. We cooked every night and the facilities were more than we could hope for.

Been to Queenstown a few times and this place seems to grow, we can't believe the hotels and motels that seem to be popping up everywhere. The house, what can I say but what an awesome place. Best things is having the bathrooms and toilets as there was eight of us staying. The view is spectacular, we enjoyed the minus 5 bar and the variety of places to eat was awesome. Will recommend this place to family and friends.

Bennie and Muriel Savage June 09

What a house! What a holiday! Thank you for allowing us use of your fabulous home - we all felt very much at home ourselves. We hope to return next year - we usually do beach holidays but are now converted to skiing and snowboarding! Queenstown is spectacularly beautiful with plenty to do and eat. Loved Botswana Butchery very very much. See you next year.

Elizabeth, Simon, Max, Ben, Ted, Tom and James June/July 09

Mark and Siv, many thanks for giving us this wonderful opportunity to share your glorious home. Words I am dumb founded to express how much we have enjoyed our stay. The bath was excellent. The water feature at night was delightful. It saddens me to leave but one day I hope to return.

Joan and James Amopiu July 09

Just wanted to say thanks for the awesome view, fantastic bath and a wonderful place and home for us to have our annual break away from home. I certainly recommend eating the chicken parcel meal at the Speights Bar, absolutely fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed shooting down to The Bluff for the oyster festival (even thought i don't eat seafood). Met a Koro (elderly Maori man) down at the Bay View Pub who gave us some king and tiroi which the rest of the crew thoroughly enjoyed. Once gain, many thanks for this beautiful home and scenery. We shall certainly e telling our friends about it!

Donna and George July 09

Fantastic house, great facilities, suited us perfectly. A wonderful stay, sunny and warm every day. Enjoyed the gondola and luge, Arrowtown for great coffee - Joe's Garage, Wanaka, Kewarau Jet, Mt Lerkin snow landing, Remarkables drive was a bit hair raising ! T minus five bar is a definite "must experience". Joined the pulse gym - had to work off our Patagonia chocolates and our vudu cake. Loved the mediterranian market, great food, made staying in every night easy. divine fireplace, soothing water feature. All in all a fab family break. See you again!

Gale, Paul, Sharon, Mitchell September 09

Had a great time here in Queenstown. Experienced that drive up to the Remarkables and happily live to tell the tale. Woke to heavy snow this morning, what a treat! Great place to stay, loved the house, fantastic views and very comfortable. Would love to come again.

Bruce, Rachael, Chris and Jane Oct 09

What a wonderful week, the scenery is spectacular, we even had snow. Drove up to coronet Peak, it was beautiful, all the blossoms and daffodils and snow capped mountains. We just cant stop taking photos. Thank you for sharing this delightful home with us, it is such a blessing to have true friends of over 30 years to still laugh and talk around that great table.

Stephen and Sharon Oct 09

Lovely welcome to a beautiful home, fabulous attention to detail. Exquisite linen, ever changing outlook and wondrous mountains. We have spent many happy house eating, drinking and catching up with news. Never a dull moment. Four contented friends from Auckland.

Ruth, Helen, Ann and Joan Nov 09

With postcard views from your patio how could you not ask yourself "why are we leaving here?" Four nights are not enough, there are very few places to match.

Barry, Estelle and Vanessa Dec 09

We had a wonderful weekend staying in this stunning house! Great view, loved it and will recommend to friends. We especially like the kitchen and the bath room. The house has all the facilities for a great family vacation!

Ling Family Dec 09

We had a very pleasant stay. In fact staying in Queenstown at your house was actually the highlight of the whole 14 days trip. We all love your house. There is nothing that is not available or not in working order. Everything is perfect.

The location of the house was a bit far from the city but this is only a miniscule problem for us as we hired 2 cars for 10 people.

We also made the most out of the kitchen by cooking for dinner one time. As this is a holiday my family are of the strong believe of dining out, but when mum and aunties saw how good and extensive the kitchen is. They had to use it.

Having wireless internet was really good too. We were able to check emails and work. We have been without internet for 9 days before we got to your place.

We didn’t have time to use the bbq. Would love to but didn’t have time. Something to look forward to next time!

We would definitely come back and stay at your place again and would also strongly recommended to families and friends.

Thanks for a great stay

Daniel Budiardjo

So good of you to have arranged for us to stay at your beautiful home-away-from-home! We walked in with our jaws opened disbelieving our eyes!

Everything is so tastefully arranged and immaculately presented. Your eye for detail is making this comfortable for your guest is amazing. You even have a hair dryer something I can't live without and forgot to bring :)

The convenience of the location and the spectacular views from every window makes your place a "must to visit again" place. We'll be sure to do so soon with our 3 young adult kids - they will love the tennis court on their door step!!

Great spot for us to be celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary - thanks for making it so special for us with welcome bottle of Pinot Noir - something we sampled heaps on our way through Cromwell, bannockburn and gibson. THANKs!!

Michael and Sandra Macdonald Feb 20

Amazing house.. its our dream home!! love the views, love the kitchen, love the fireplace, love the outdoor BBQ area. We BBQ'd almost every night!!! Definitely coming back and soon... Might have to think about getting our own place! We didn't really need to do many activities - just chilling in the house kept us happy! But ... we did drive to Milford Sound and did The Encounter Nature Red Boat Cruise. I prob would take the bus next time as the drive is rather long and tiring.

Went for the "river wild" horse trek at dart stables (just my husband and i)... scenery is just stunning... absolutely breath taking, we're going for another horse trek tomorrow, the whole group of us at Ben Lomond... looking forward to it. Its our last night here, already missing the house and Queenstown. Thank you for letting us stay... We had a wonderful time and many thanks for the bottle of wine :) Hope to be back soon
