Cathy and Dave are fantastic hosts. If it was possible they were flexible with any requirements we had. (Check in/check out and any travel/sightseeing tips). Their place is spotless and has all the amenities you require. It was a fantastic place for us to start our trip in NZ. The views from their house are beautiful also! The only thing we didn’t realize was the proximity from the town center. If you have a car it’s not a problem, but these initial few days we didn’t hire a car. There is a bus stop very close to their house and it’s quite easily to navigate. However a 10min journey could end up taking 40mins. I would highly recommend staying at Cathy and Dave’s if your looking for a place like home to return to after a day well spent seeing the sights of queenstown
