This property is a hidden gem in the wine country north of Queenstown. Beautiful setting, spacious cottage, cooking facilities in room, and some of the best wine in the area My only regret is we only had one night to spend there and it will be very hard to book again for a weekend visit from Texas. Five stars across the biard

Beautiful vineyard

Loved our stay at Kinross cottage. Room was beautiful as was the view. Bathroom spacious with great water pressure. Ducks rabbits and birds added natural beauty to this location. View was gorgeous! Pear and blue cheese pizza and wine tasting were excellent!

Thoroughly recommend this awesome place to stay.

Im not sure how i found these cottages but im so pleased i did. I couldn't fault the service or the friendly staff. The cottages were well equipped and spacious. We enjoyed the wine tasting. Everything was certainly a 10/10.

SEJUNG, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautifully located in the Gibbston Valley, just the right distance from Queenstown to feel away from the commercialism, easy drive to Arrowtown for great restaurants, and close to so many of the amazing vineyard experiences. Even if choosing not to explore and want to stay in to enjoy the comforts of your room, the Kinross experience delivers abundantly... great food onsite at their bistro, the immediately surrounding sights are worthy of slowing down to take in and each room has the perfect park bench situated outside to enjoy a hot morning drink, or wine to watch the evening dip into darkness. The rooms are well appointed, everything needed if you want to cook for yourself, or simply heat something up. They're spacious and comfortable, and the beds are divinely firm & pillowy at the same time. Not cluttered but plenty of places to store and hang. Yes, the drawer layout was back-to-front (stove utensils where the general cutlery should live), but we needed to find something that was wrong! Also, knowing the high probability of guests using the hot tub, some towels specifically for this would have been preferred - suggest packing slip-on footwear for the walk up. For certain the wine tasting experience must not be missed, Diego wends a delicious tale about the wines presented and the local growers that disappoints only because there should be a movie telling the tale! Middle of winter presents no issues, the room was comfortably warm and clearly well insulated.

8/10 Very good

Ok

We were arriving after check in hours and the key wasn't in the key safe box as they had messaged it would be. Fortunately there was a private catering event happening and the asst manager tracked down the key. We were in Ruins and the lodge is at the end of the property. V quiet with rabbits having a lovely timealla round. The room was large with a lot of wasted space and would have benefitted from this being filled with a bigger table than the tiny one currently in there. We didn't partake in eating there or any of the wine activities. It was probably not worth the price they charge.

Love the little wood cottage vibe very much, the size of the cottage is good and they have everything you need. Sunset time strolling around the vineyard and pond is superb too.

We were very comfortable, the staff were friendly, courteous and welcoming. The lady who cleaned the rooms was particularly nice and friendly. We will definitely come back.

This place is amazing. If it wasn’t on the other side of the world from where I live, I’d be planning my next visit. The cottages were gorgeous and well equipped. The setting was superb. It was dead of winter during our visit so very quiet. We did enjoy the hot tub and the stars…. Breakfast was good and staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and happy. Oh, and great wine too! Wish we’d had more time to taste more wine and explore all there is to do in this area. The biking was fantastic though. Thank you, Kinross for a memorable stay!
