Location Description: Central’s clear light brings mountains within arm's reach and with long summer twilights the night sky has more stars than Hollywood Boulevard. Towns built of prosperity from the gold of yesteryear still retain a quaint heritage and laid back lifestyle. Hot summers, the vivid reds and golds of autumn, and spring blossom wait, so whenever you visit there is a seasonal show center stage.

Unique Activities: Trek the hills for solitude and get lost in some space of your own. The area attracts talented artists who capitalize on the changing landscapes and ever changing light and we have the art trail map close at hand. Taste test this region's fast growing international reputation for their ability to produce excellent wines. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris & Sauvignon Blanc varietals await inside the cellar door, and what’s best is... we know the way.

Accommodation: A private and discrete hideaway set amidst a sea of sweet smelling wild thyme and towering schist rock formations. The essence of Central Otago 's rugged beauty is right here. Soak in the outdoor spa bath set in a totally private natural rock surround. Ah...Bliss. |

Cruising Country Roads: Travelling through the Kawarau Gorge following this wild & powerful gold bearing river and landscapes covered in grape vines, in no time we arrive in Queenstown.
