This place is amaaaazing! I got what I needed on this trip. I am very happy that I picked a great accommodation - very clean, modern, warm, quiet, new and best of all RELAXING. Lower Shotover is just a few minutes away from town, very close to Lake Hayes which i enjoyed as I usually go there to walk, also Lake Wakatipu and the Queenstown Gardens. It is very close to Arrowtown - which is an old, beautiful town; so it's easy when u want to eat and just have a chill day. The drive to the city is about 15 mins but the view is breathtaking. And everything else is close to each other. The airport is just 8 mins away. I enjoyed my stay - the family was very accommodating. Rachel came out to see me as I got lost. Mark has been good in communication and even let me stay a bit later till I had to leave for my flight. They were also very understanding that i had to leave a day ealry for an important appointment back home. I would recommend this place and would definitely come back!
