Loved your stunning home. It suited our extended family perfectly. Will stay again next time we are in the area. Great service from Deb The Butler as well.
The Long House was a beautiful house set in an idyllic location near Queenstown.
It had amazing views of the mountains and lake and plenty of room to cook, relax and enjoy our time.
It was close to the Remarkables which positions it will for ski holidays
This is a beautiful, large and spacious home with breathtaking views of the Remarkables. We loved our stay and particularly The Butler's guide to the local activities/ restaurants etc. The location was great for us - we hired e-bikes and rode around the trails most days. The clubhouse restaurant at Jacks Point and The Farmhouse at Hanleys Farm are both great options very close. 20 minutes drive to Queenstown and only 10 minutes from the airport all make for a very easy stay. Highly recommend this home.

60th birthday celebration
Our stay at the Long House was the perfect place for a 60th birthday get together with friends. There are fabulous views from every room. & the beds were so comfortable with good separation of areas & privacy. .The private BBQ picnic area by the lake was an extra bonus.

Fabulous stay....once again
This is the second winter holiday we have had in this house and we had another fabulous time in it. Big enough for three families with lots of room so you are not on top of each other. All the wonderful amenities that you want after a days skiing. We all just loved it.
Beautiful property, excellent location for access to Remarkables, great for 2 families.
