The cottage was very comfortable and the front and rear decks were great for relaxing outdoors with views of the surrounding hills. Lot's of books encourage reading rather than screen time. It's a short walk to the main street for the pub, restaurants, bakery, shopping and walking/bike trail along the river. The local pool is also perfect for a cool down on a hot summer day. Arrowtown is a wonderful small town to enjoy, as well as a perfect base for exploring the region.
