Sometimes in life you come across the completely unexpected. I followed my GPS to Paul & Jo’s house and came across one of the most incredible houses I’ve ever seen. The kind of house I’d like to live in . I got out of the car to meet Paul and asked, am I in the right place? Yes. Amazingly. The AirBnB Cottage is to the right of the house which featured on Grand Designs in 2017. I had no idea of this - friends who saw the photos I posted on social media, told me. ( I do have an uncanny knack for picking great places - I struck again!). What a stunning natural environment amongst the dramatic grandeur of the schist rocks. Like many people I have a high stress job, nature returns me to what’s meaningful in life. If that’s what you want, this place is it with no doubt. The area is expensive so you need to be prepared for that. Paul and Jo were extremely warm and welcoming. Paul even shared a slice of the best birthday cheesecake I’ve ever eaten with me which - although he’s not Kiwi was ironically such a friendly Kiwi touch.,The cottage is very modern and well equipped. The fireplace was heavenly. This place was EXACTLY what I needed at this time and I would not hesitate to recommend it to others. I like staying away from Queenstown - this is the perfect - and quite unexpected - spot.
