We had such a wonderful stay at Elizabeth's property. She had the fridge stocked up with yoghurt, milk orange juice and muesli along with a basket of fruit and crisps.
The location is beautiful over looking the lake and the accommodation is nice and quiet at night and Elizabeth was super friendly. The walk into town is all down hill and took no more than 10 mins. We caught a taxi back to the accommodation at the end of each day (we were there for Queenstown Marathon) and it was consistently $10 and there were always a few waiting outside Peter Alexander opposite ANZ Bank. We also watched a movie on Netflix the night of the Marathon which was nice to sit and relax. We went to the cinema on a drizzly day and there aren't any allocated seats and the queue went out into the rain but all moved quickly and everyone was happy.
We ate out every night.
The Pub on Wharf - is great for a quality pub meal (all mains are $20) and to sit outside overlooking the lake or inside by the fire. We had a few beers and shared the nachos and wedges after the Marathon. Perfect for people watching and refuelling!
Ivy & Lola's Kitchen and Bar - Art Deco restaurant with beautiful fresh food
The Cow Restaurant - Italian cosy dining with shared tables. Rustic decor with a beautiful fire
Toro Kitchen & Bar - We had drinks and shared some starters which were amazing (White anchovies, crostini, green olives, & Goat cheese, caramelised onion, crostini) Their breakfast also looked very nice and would be lovely sitting outside in the sun
We had drinks at Yonder, Little Blackwood and Bar and Public Kitchen and Bar.
Coffee - Vudu (coffee nice, breakfast over rated and extremely busy) Mackenzie & Co was super, especially sitting at the window people watching a listening to Fat Freddy's Drop.
Ice cream - Patagonia (good choice and the line moves quickly)
Totally recommend this property and Queenstown as a destination.
