Arrowtown

This former gold mining town about 15 miles from Queenstown is very quaint and we spent four nights here. It is busy during the day as many visitors come on day trips because as one lady (nationality withheld) said "It looks like Disneyworld!" It does madam but it's authentic!

This area has everything one could want, great weather, spectacular scenery, every sport and activity you could ask for, winter or summer, and close proximity to an international airport and finally, lots of great golf courses!

Ann and Barry's B & B was a real find, on the edge of a golf course, you can hit balls onto the range (balls provided) from the top of the garden. Ann's breakfast was about 90% homegrown - mushrooms, tomatoes, eggs, various fruits and jams, etc. Barry was most generous with the G & T's at 5:00 pm and always provided a fresh baked home baked loaf to take to our apartment.

They were entertaining, wonderful hosts and the essence of what Bed & Breakfast is all about.
