Picture postcard setting, gorgeous cottage, lovely generous hosts. The Boathouse is perfect if you prefer to stay away from the crowds but still have access to all on offer (Arrowtown 10 minutes, Queenstown 20 minutes). The setting is so peaceful with beautiful views and the cottage is super cosy and welcoming. Although the cottage is fully equipped for self catering we chose to eat out for breakfast, lunch and dinner because access to great food in the area is very easy...the local Tavern and a number of wineries are walking distance from the cottage and Arrowtown (being only a 10 min drive) is also awesome for food. The cottage is a great base for day tripping to Glenorchy, Clyde and Wanaka and after a day of touristing it is just lovely to return to pure peace and quiet. The Wi Fi is absolutely 100% reliable, we had three people on laptops chugging down the internet and had no problems at all. Shelley is a great communicator. She was expecting a film crew at the main house during our visit and was very concerned that they would interfere with our enjoyment of the property which we thought was incredibly respectful and considerate. As it turns out they did their filming before we arrived. Given the location and quality of the accommodation, the Boathouse is excellent value for money. We wouldn't hesitate to return.
