If you are thinking of staying somewhere around Queenstown, then this place is THE place to stay! We stayed at Closeburn Cottage for 7 nights for our honeymoon, and also happened to be our first AirBnB experience. Instructions and communication from the hosts prior to our arrival were extremely helpful and accurate. When we arrived, we found a beautiful hamper waiting for us on the kitchen bench - containing cheeses, wine, crackers, cookies, breakfast items and fresh bread. The fire was set ready for us to light. The place was spotless and so many extra things were thought of - underfloor heating in the bathroom, extra towels, firewood, pillows, blankets etc. it truly felt like a home away from home. We had hired a car, and loved being a little out of town, as provided the perfect privacy for our little getaway. The spa was wonderfully warm, with fresh water, and had spectacular views across the lake. Waking up to those amazing views is something we will never forget. We were treated to amazing weather- mostly sunny, but one morning it was even snowing!
We hope to be back again in the future for an anniversary.
Thanks again !
