Although we arrived late and left early the town was very clean and interesting. Haily gave us some history which we found interesting

Cronwell is not adjacent to Queenstown. While the distance seems short, the gorge road is steep and dangerous and I would not back track from Cronwell to Queenstown.

5/5 - Excellent

Cromwell is a lovely town, it was a busy weekend for Motorsport and we loved it. We went to the Ben Nevis Station - Golden 1200 Hillclimb and there was Powerboat racing on Lake Dunstan and we visited Highlands Motorsport Park.

Cromwell is my favourite place in NZ. We lived there for a time ourselves. It is safe, quiet, has awesome scenery, a unique feel about it and the climate for me is perfect with no humidity.
