Birdsong Cottage is a beautiful place to spend time, and Cynthia is such a lovely host. Cosy, charming, appointed with everything you need and humming with a deep sense of place and ease, we found it the perfect for becoming our best selves again. Hiking and lake swimming and the riches of the region are at easy striking distance (some very classy wineries are particularly close by), and the location outside of the intense seasonal hubub of Queenstown is a blessing. We already miss our time there, and hope to return.
