About this property

Quentin's Cottage - a cosy retreat by Mt Owen - close to town and trails!

Relax by the fire in our beautifully restored miner’s cottage, circa 1900, surrounded by stunning West Coast mountains.

Just 1.8km from MTB trails and close to hiking, ancient rainforest, and Lake Burbury. Walk to art galleries, cafes, and bars and the iconic railway.

The Space
Quentin's Cottage is a peaceful retreat designed for unwinding and reconnecting, with each other and nature by the fire. Access to wifi is not part of this experience. To access the internet you will need to use your own device and connection.

As you enter the cottage you're greeted by a gallery hallway filled with original photographs from local artists. There is a wood fire and new reverse cycle heater/air conditioning, a TV with free to air, streaming and a DVD player, small library, board games and an extensive DVD collection.

IMPORTANT: As we do not have Wi-Fi you will need to hotspot the TV from your own device to use streaming services.

There are two queen sized bedrooms, and one double bedroom. The master has a new Ecosa memory foam mattress. All have bedding designed by Australian artists, electric blankets, heaters, luggage racks and hanging space.

The modern kitchen has a double oven, induction stove, new dishwasher and a unique copper benchtop-paying tribute to Queenstown’s mining heritage.

Extras
Washing machine, dryer and plant based laundry detergent are supplied free of charge, to refresh for your next adventure.

Extremely cozy, Sarah is very thoughtful. I specifically picked it for the dvd collection and fireplace. I loved the additional touch with the aboriginal art as well. Quiet private street, had the best sleeps ;)

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.

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.

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.

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.

The cottage is spacious and comfortable, we had plenty of room to spread out. We found the couches super comfy and the kitchen well resourced with crockery, cooking needs etc. Our host was easy to communicate with. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Why they chose this property

Our family fell in love with Queenstown and the West Coast after passing through in 2019. We love the outdoors, hiking, biking, mountains and the arts - everything Queenstown has to offer!

What makes this property unique

Our property is a circa 1900 miners cottage built during the mining boom that put Queenstown on the world map. It was lovingly restored in 2022, uncovering original timbers floors and wall linings. Some of the wall linings have been left exposed as a nod to the home's history.
