Great spot for Bannockburn wineries
We enjoyed our stay, great location for the wineries which was our main reason for visiting the region. Close to old Cromwell via the bike path and the Dunstan trail. Thanks for the great stay!

Lovely area
A very comfortable space, which only lacked wifi and or good cell coverage. Without reliant cell coverage, wifi is essential. An outside light near the road entrance would make it easier to spot after dark
Complete building is for guests, one bathroom three bedrooms. Heat goes upstairs more than down. No wifi but cellphone coverage ok. Close to Bannockburn wineries and 5 mins back to Cromwell supermarket and restaurants. Cromwell area is beautiful especially in Autumn. Walking trails in several places. Easy drive to Gibbston Valley, Arrowtown and on to Queenstown. Can easily spend 3-4 days here.

Cute Barn
We enjoyed our stay here. Comfortable beds with all the basics you need. Value for money. Beautiful time of the year to visit Cromwell. Close to town and many biking tracks.
Tea, coffee and milk provided on arrival. If staying for a while no pantry products available but many enjoyable restaurants near by.
Better lighting would be appreciated. The barn is located very close to the owners home with a shared driveway but did not seem to be a problem.
