Orchard Cottage had everything we needed for a stress free getaway in a quiet corner of Arrowtown. Jane and Roger were welcoming and informative hosts, ensuring our every comfort was catered to. We loved all the personal touches in the cottage making us feel completely at home. Jane's baking was delish!!! Thank you for sharing your magical corner of the world where the Tuis entertain. We hope to return soon.

A lovely cosy cottage with lots of homey touches - lovely and warm in very cold temperatures. Jane is a very attentive host with some delightful treats throughout our stay! You will need a vehicle as it is out of town a bit - which is actually part of the charm!

My husband and I spent a week here, working remotely and vacationing. We walked to the lake and swam most days and walked to arrowtown for lunch. Jane and Roger were like friends welcoming us into their home! Highly recommend!

We highly recommend the cottage for a stay in Queenstown, Jane has supplied everything you need for cooking and also fresh baked goods 😋. It was very warm and comfortable.
Arrowtown is out of the business Queenstown which was perfect for us.

A perfect package
Peace, tranquility, in a beautiful garden. Our one bedroom unit was perfect for our three night stay. Decor and comfort were outstanding and we were provided with some very special unexpected treats and the most delicious home made muffins. Jane is so welcoming and friendly. To top it all off the location is great for exploring the region. We loved our stay.

What magnificent hosts. We give Orchard Cottage the highest possible recommendation
The cottages are delightful, a real home from home, with everything you could want for a few days away. Wonderfully located less than 5 minutes from Arrowtown main street. Sunny warm and inviting are inadequate superlatives. Thank you sooo much Jane and Roger, I feel we have made new real friends in those few short days at your place.

Lovely Lake Hayes Bungalow
Jane's self contained unit is a gem and an oasis for weary travelers. Not only is it surrounded by beautiful gardens and a private space, but the bathroom was just remodeled! There is so much to recommend the way Jane has used the space and even though there isnt a proper kitchen there are many appliances covering a variety of cooking methods. Jane was very responsive and proactive about our stay and supplied us with some lovely food items to get us started. We hated to leave!

Exemplary in Every Way
A cosy, beautifully presented, compact cottage adjoining the owner's home. Set within an immaculately maintained English style garden with mountain views.
It is very apparent that the owners strive to go that extra mile to provide their guests with the wonderful experience that is a stay at Orchard Cottage.
The warm welcome that we received from Jane, and the special treats that we found scattered about, were very much appreciated. The specially baked little heart shaped cakes, and the bubbly in celebration of our wedding anniversary were indicative of that extra mile.

This was a real home away for us. We got spoiled by homebake by the perfect hosts.
What a wonderfull spot on earth 👍�
The cottage is not only well equipped - it is also full of love from the hosts.
If you look for a beautiful and tranquil spot where you can enjoy the view of the mountains from your own garden this is the place. But take good care of it - so we can enjoy it again next time 😀�😎�

The location was beautiful and very peaceful
The location was beautiful and very peaceful. It proved to be a real sanctuary in what is a busy period around Christmas in Central Otago. The unit was extremely well presented and very tastefully decorated. There was not one thing that I looked for that wasn't provided. My husband and I both commented on how comfortable the bed was. We loved the whole vibe of the place and will definitely stay here again if the opportunity presents itself.
