What a pleasant surprise this little gem was! What it lacked in immediate street appeal made up for it once you walked in the front door. Lovely colour pallet, furniture and nooks and crannies. Such a delightful, quirky, and welcoming cottage. No internet was a big plus as we got to spend real quality time with the kids! Super clean, very functional and all the creature comforts you could ask for. Definetely recommend this gem.

Highly recommend this accomodation. They have thought of everything. A fireplace that warms the entire home and includes firewood. Electric blankets, hot water bottles and warm fluffy blankets to relax in front of the fireplace. It’s such a warm inviting place. The decor is beautiful and the kitchen is stocked with everything you need. Lots of games and interesting reads.Sarah was so helpful and was able to recommend so many things to make our stay more enjoyable including helping to find pet sitting for our four legged friend.Accomodation was a short stroll to the wilderness railway station and in to town. Thank you Sarah for letting us share your cozy little cottage.

Quentins cottage was reasonably well appointed for a short stay but if staying longer than a couple of nights wanting to utilize the kitchen more cooking equipment would make this process easier. There wasnt many pots or bowls to cook withIts a rustic renovation of a very old home but lovely and clean with good quality linen and comfy bed.One complaint would be that the front steps are dangerous, the tread depth is insufficient and steptoo high but in saying this outside renovation is still in the pipeline but the steps are something to be aware of until reno of the outside is started.Getting the car in and out also we found difficult and the car didnt fit in the garage. No biggie but if a travellerisdriving a large car its something to be aware of.We enjoyed our stay.

The inside of the house has clearly been fully renovated, while the exterior keeps its "original" state. Inside everything was spotless and well-organised. I loved the copper sheet center island bench in the kitchen, I want the same in my home now. A very comfortable stay,even got a delivery of wood for the fire ( which you will need when cold)A couple of practical notes for future guests: there’s no hair dryer provided and no internet or TV reception. Normally that might not matter, but during a spell of cold, rainy weather my wife really wanted to dry her hair and we found using our phones 4G reception a bit patchy for data (1 bar) so if you have work teams/zoom it may be a problem. Not deal-breakers, just something worth knowing when you pack, queenstown is remote.
