Kirsty is a great host, and went out of her way to help us have a good skiing holiday, keeping in contact before arrival, then helping us with local tips, looking after our bags after check-out on the last day etc.
The house is fabulous, with a great view over Queenstown and the lake. It has a gas fire and is warm and cosy. There is a well equipped kitchen, a laundry, and a drying room for ski equipment, which was a bonus, as was the Playstation for the younger members of the group. The beds were comfy and the electric blankets were lovely after a day of skiing. The spa bath was also nice for relaxing tired muscles.
It was a steep walk up from town (10mins if you're fit) but there were lots of taxis available if you didn't fancy it carrying your ski gear, and they only cost about $8 NZ.
A fabulous place for a large group, we would definitely visit again.
