“We stayed at Gillian and Peters place which had a magical location v close to Queenstown. There was the choice of hopping on a boat or a short drive to town. The surrounding area is stunning and we went for a few runs so really got a feel for the area. We stayed in the lower ground floor whilst Gillian and Peter were upstairs so we shared the house with them. They were very courteous and allowed us to use their washing machine which was great and for us much needed after a week in a campervan! The bedrooms are lovely very comfy and spill out on to the garden. There is no kitchen which we certainly knew about before, but for a few days this was fine as we got a take away and ate at the famous Fernberger! Perfect spot and great hospitality, we would certainly recommend ”

Gillian's reviews
As a host (9)“Such a beautiful home in a stunning location. Thank you very much to Gillian for making it available. We had a great time ”
“We had a great stay at Gillian’s beautiful home. What an amazing view. Thank you very much. ”
“My wife and 3 grown up children stayed at Peter & Gillians home in Queenstown for 2 weeks, and it was fantastic. A Beautiful home with everything you could want for a relaxing time in Queenstown. Fantastic views over the lake and the home was so nice but comfortable we really did feel like it was our home for those 2 weeks. Thanks again. ”
“We had an amazing stay at Gillian's home. It is the perfect location for skiing the Remarkables and has some beautiful views of Queenstown and the stunning surrounding mountains. The house is big, very clean and very well appointed. Thank you so much Gillian, we had a wonderful time!”
“We were extremely privileged to stay at Gillian's home. It surpassed our expectations and we loved our holiday. The views from this house were spectacular, particularly at night time and it was so comfortable we didn't want to leave. Our trip was a 10/10 because we knew that at the end of a busy day exploring we could return to our home away from home. Gillian happily answered anything we needed to know and we would return should we ever go back to Queenstown. Highly recommend this property for a family. Thank you Gillian.”
“We had an absolutely wonderful time staying at Gillian's and again want to thank them so much for making their home so comfortable and so inviting! The views looking back at Queenstown are spectacular and everything was so lovely that we hardly left but just relaxed and enjoyed our last two days in New Zealand. We want to thank them again for the lovely gift basket that they left us that we enjoyed immensely and hope that we get a chance to return the favors when they visit us in the United States. Thank you! Jill & Chuck.”
“We had a lovely short break in this lovely house in Queenstown , the house was extreamly comfortable and well equipped .It is in a wonderful location we did hire a car as we wanted to explore the area but if you were just wanting to be in Queenstown you can take the water taxi to the city centre .The water taxi is all of 5min walk away . ”
“We had a Fantastic stay at Gillian's home, it was just a short water taxi ride into Queenstown. We hired a car which made it easy access to the slopes and other surrounding attractions. The home was very comfortable and clean when we arrived however very cold for the 1st night until we worked out the heating. It has beautiful views over the lake lovely bike tracks which we enjoyed and great walking tracks also. Gillian left us a detailed booklet with heaps of useful information. Would definitely recommend and we will hopefully return back one day. ”
