court experience in Anne and Steves accommodation was absolutely blissful. they are natural and gracious hosts and go above and beyond what is expected. the cottage in Bannockburn is very comfortable, my son and I were completely at home , very rural feel but minutes to Cromwell township. the area is fascinating ,vines ,orchards and old gold-mining remnants with the deep Kawarau river flowing at the bottoms of the vineyard . loved our stay ,really a magical place.
