About our home
"Isabella's Cottage" is a restored historic cottage dating from the Gold Rush era that established the beautiful town of Arrowtown. This charming town is often viewed as living history, with many sites being so accessible. For example the restored Chinese village which was originally established by early miners.
Isabella's Cottage has recently undergone a complete 'make over' whilst retaining its historical charm. This encompassed full restoration and included a complete kitchen and bathroom replacement. All rooms upgraded and finished with selected heritage paint colours and give a genuine comfort. All furniture was selected or ordered bespoke to match the cottage style. Full insulation, under floor heating and electric wall heaters make it cosy warm in winter whilst retaining the historic design features which keep the cottage cool during the hot Central Otago summers.
Two double bedrooms are stunningly finished, one of which has a feature original stack stone fireplace (although non-operational it provides genuine feeling of originality). Third bedroom with twin beds.
Named after Isabella Lowe, one of the first European female children born in Arrowtown who had links with the cottage, your stay here so close to all the area has to offer will leave you spell bound!

More about us
-
We live in the charming town of Arrowtown New Zealand, and we are a semi-retired couple in our 50's. Both of us have a background in Agricultural Business and currently keep ourselves occupied renovating a large historic home, in which we live, near to our home exchange property.
We have travelled extensively in our earlier years and we are now planning travel to visit so many places as we have the time available to do so... so many choices!!!!
We look forward to home exchange's, and promise we will look after any home as we would expect our own property to be cared for.
