Beautiful property. Excellent hosts. Loved the pet pigs! Thanks very much - we really enjoyed our stay.
Fabulous place and stunning location, just perfect for exploring the area; lovely friendly hosts; gorgeous modern cozy accommodation and super comfortable and easy to stay in.
This is a truly wonderful place to stay...
Quiet, peaceful, panoramic views and all the amenities you could hope for...
Thank you to Lynne and Tony our hosts who made our stay five stars!

Wow what a beautiful spot, the house the views were all five stars
The house was so comfortable, incredibly warm even though it was minus 5 outside, the view morning and evening stunning will definitely be staying again when we are next down that way
We retuned for another great stay at Lynne and Tony’s beautiful property at Gibbston. Peaceful and quiet location with great views of the mountains and upper valley. Property is immaculately presented with everything needed for a stay away from home.
Sensational stay for our young family, the views were amazing & the pet pigs were awesome to have around. Really nice place, super warm & the floor heating was extra special!
Lynne was super easy to deal with & very helpful.
We absolutely loved staying in this magical place. It is luxurious and the property is stunning with amazing scenery. There is so much attention to detail which made us feel very welcome. It is right in the heart of vineyard country and biking trails. Would love to stay again.
This place is awesome, so too is Lynne who showed us around, was very hospitable and friendly. The accommodation was spotless, large enough to be really comfortable and what a view! My dream property in Central Otago.
We had a great time at this venue. Tucked into the hills amongst the vineyards and a short drive to Queenstown and surrounding sights and delights.
Wonderful host, who kept us informed of local goings on and things to try. Very amicable and thoughtful.
Would recommend!

A lovely place to stay just outside Queenstown. Beauriful scenery & very comfortable accomodation.
We loved staying here. It was our last stop before heading home & a very relaxing & comfortable place. Two nights was not quite enough! Some lovely touches to make it a memorable experience. If we come back to the area we’d definitely return here. Thank you Lynn & Tony

Amazing!
We had a fabulous time thank you Lynne! Cottage is gorgeous - well equipped and beautifully presented. Our stay was so relaxing, we’ll be back! Thanks again.

We so enjoyed every aspect of our stay at this beautiful property. From Lynne’s very kind welcome to all the thoughtful touches throughout her home. The comfy beds, underfloor heating and fire lit for our arrival, all much appreciated for our winter stay. The location can’t be beat, with gorgeous views to the mountains and so close to the wineries. Only downside was that we could only stay 2 nights! Thank you Lynne for your hospitality and we hope to return some time in the future.
The property is beautiful with high end finishes. Lynne and Tony have thought of everything including delicious fruit and nut slices for our arrival. Beryl and Cheryl (pet pigs) are hilarious and really enjoy a treat or two. The outlook was spectacular but an easy drive to facilities. Would definitely recommend.
Perfect spot to return to for a peaceful evening after a day of winelands, biking, hiking (or winter sports). Everything has been thought of - from generous supply of coffee pods to expansive windows overlooking valley and mountains beyond. Piggies, birdcall and very comfortable bedding extra bonuses. I love finding special little places like this around the world.
This is a very special property with amazing hosts! As a family we spent two weeks in this accomodation utilising it as a base for a skiing holiday. It’s well set up for a family with everything you would expect.
Beryl and Sheryl the resident pigs on the property were a huge hit with my 8 year old daughter.
We will be staying again and again I’m sure!
Spectacular views, unmatched serenity. Do not stay here if bright city lights are what you’re looking for - all you see here at night is millions of stars and by day you are surrounded by majestic mountain ranges. The home is very well appointed and seriously photos could never do it justice. Lynne is a gorgeous host and she even had the fire ready for us to light if we wanted it. We didn’t need extra warmth but lit the fire anyway and the glowing ambiance was the icing on the cake.
