This property is delightful, Jane is a fabulous host who goes above & beyond to make you feel welcome. From the delicious home baked jam cakes on arrival to the well stocked pantry & treats. We loved the beautiful location, close enough to Queenstown to visit but able to enjoy the peace of Lake Hayes & surrounds. Jane supplies plenty of useful information about places to visit & activities in the area. A wonderful start to our NZ holiday. We were grateful for Janes hospitality, the best place we stayed in during our travels & hope to return again. Thankyou Cherie & Jacqui.

The position, the home, the gardens, the hosts make Orchard Cottage the perfect place to stay. We had 7 days of total enjoyment. Highly recommend.

My friend and I had the most wonderful 4 night stay at Orchard Cottage near Arrowtown, whilst in the middle of us touring New Zealand's South Island. The cottage was immaculate and every detail for our comfort was thoroughly thought through. Our hostess, Jane, is a lovely, interesting lady, who enquired each day if we were happy in the cottage. She also gave us great ideas as to what was available in Arrowtown village. The cottage is only 20 minutes drive from the tourist hub of Queenstown. Our stay could not have been better.

A very comfortable quiet stay out of both queenstown & arrowtown so a car is needed. Excellent if you want to self cater. We had a great time and we were all very partial to Jane’s muffins!

We stayed in a variety of rentals and motels over four weeks in NZ, and this was the best of all. Other reviewers have commented on the many positives of this property. I’ll just add that you’ll find many special extras, including tissues, flashlight, and water pitcher on each bedside table. The cottage grounds feel private even though the owners’ house is next door. Thanks!

We have probably stayed in around 12 Bookabachs in New Zealand. This place is a combination of the best of all the different places. Of course, there are larger bachs out there, but for what it is (two bedroom cottage with one bathroom), it is perfect.
It is very quiet, which is very important for us, set a reasonable distance from the main house and neighbours and roads.
The mountain views are amazing, visible just sitting on the living room sofa.
20-30 minutes from skiing at Coronet Peak / Remarkables and 40 minutes from the base of Cardrona. Arrowtown has some shops, only 5 minutes away.
The cottage is in near-perfect condition, with every imaginable convenience, including washing machine and dryer. Heating is very good. The "little touches" are everywhere - right down to providing (unopened) jams, muffins and hot water bottles (good for aching limbs after after skiing).
Everything is spotless, notably fridge and toilets.
I also liked the fact that everything in the cottage is for the guests - there is no confusion as to what is "out of bounds" or owner's property.
Extremely comfortable bed and quality bedding.
Jane is a great host, highly communicative and helpful.
Can't recommend this cottage more highly.

Wonderful accommodation
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Orchard Cottage. Jane was such a welcoming host, even providing fresh home baking on arrival! The cottage had absolutely everything we could possibly need & was very warm during the cold weather. Thoroughly recommend.

Orchard Cottage, Feb 2022
This is a lovely place for a peaceful holiday, but within easy reach of many walks and other attractions. The house is very well-equipped - everything has been thought of - and very comfortable. We particularly appreciated the muffins on arrival, fruit from trees on the property, the view of hills through the trees, and the reading lamp! Thank you!

Awesome
Lovely and private! As a party of three (two adults, one child) this cottage was just what we needed. A five minute drive to Arrowtown and easy to get everywhere else. Loved it. Thanks.

A Great PLace to Stay
Orchard Cottage was a wonderful place to stay as we ended our month long exploration of New Zealand. Jane is MORE than a gracious hostess, and took care of our every need. Close to Queenstown, yet isolated from the tourist crowds, it's hard to imagine a better accommodation. Just five minutes from "downtown" Arrowtown, with delightful restaurants and shops, and a fascinating museum. And close by the Gibston Valley wineries. Just about PERFECT. If we could rate it 6 stars we would!!!

Enchanting Country Cottage
This property is situated in a peaceful, tranquil setting, you are surrounded by the beauty of the mountains. Upon our arrival we were warmly greeted by Jane and her husband Roger. Jane spent time showing us around this quaint 2 bedroom cottage. This cottage is very well appointed, comfortable, and charming. Jane has left nothing untouched, it has all the personal touches of home. Right down to the home baking left for us in the kitchen, and the bath robes hanging in the bedroom closets! Perfect for a romantic getaway, or for a family this cozy haven is a ideal spot to relax, and unwind. I would highly recommend this comfortable cottage to anyone! We would definitely return.

Everything we needed and more!
This was a lovely, quiet and restful place to stay on our tour around New Zealand. There were lots of little unexpected extras and Jane was a perfect host. The beds were comfortable, we had everything we needed in the kitchen, the outdoor area was perfect and the location was quiet and peaceful but still close to lots of sights and activities. We will definitely book the cottage again when we come back to New Zealand!

We were in Arrowtown for a wedding which happened to be in the same road. My sister found this cottage which was just perfect. Jane and Roger were amazing hosts and made us feel at home.

Orchard Cottage is a real home from home and the owners are incredibly thoughtful and hospitable.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Orchard Cottage and the incredibly well equiped accommodation provided an excellent base to enjoy both Queenstown and Arrowtown . We enjoyed sitting on the veranda with rugs over our knees watching the light changing on the mountain after eating our barbecue. We walked to Millbrook Estate and down to Lake Hayes using Jane's thoughtfully provided directions. Jane is an incredible host and we enjoyed her delicious muffins and plums from the orchard. We look forward to our next holiday at Orchard Cottage, thank you so much Jane and Roger!

A little piece of heaven on earth
Wonderful stay in every way. Comfortable, relaxing, amazing hosts and nice location. Close to everything, but away from it all at the same time. Arrowtown is a lovely community. Liked it as much or more than Queenstown!

Very private, warm and cozy cottage with excellent facilities and excellent host
Very private, warm and cozy cottage in rural setting with excellent modern facilities. Couldn't fault the host - an excellent friendly host who had the cottage set up beautifully for our arrival (including fresh cut flowers, delicious fresh baking and other treats) and was very responsive to any questions or special needs that arose (umbrella when it rained etc). Very clean and tidy accommodation. Not that any of these bothered us particularly, but some things to note: the bedroom with the two single beds is accessed through the other bedroom; there is no lock on the bathroom door; shower has fixed energy-saving head (so not particularly good water pressure in the shower); king size bed is fairly firm, but then it may have been softer without the electric blanket; car park space is very close to cottage but not under cover. Overall excellent value for money though, very happy with our choice.

Our boys wanted to leave a 5 (or more if they could) star review within 10 minutes of arriving at the cottage. Every detail was perfect and so many lovely unexpected touches that made us feel perfectly at home and well looked after (and so warm in mid winter!). We were left wanting nothing and really feel that we got much more than we paid for. We would welcome the chance to stay there again and hope to do so the next time we are in the area.
