Ayrshire Cottage was built in 2019 on 3 acres, of land that was once part of a Wakatipu Ayrshire dairy and sheep farm
The development has the Wakatipu basins historic preserved Hawthorne hedges around the triangle which makes up the “Golden Triangle” and each site is separated by large berms, providing a magical privacy and not impending the stunning outlook to the surrounding mountains from every direction. We lived in the Cottage for a year whilst the House was being built and moved into the house in August 2020.

Loved this place! Stunning location with fabulous views of mountains out virtually every window. It is clean, tidy, spacious and modern with the thoughtful addition of fruit, cereal, milk, bread and even homemade biscuits awaiting us! Like a home away from home.
Also, really well placed to get to all the great activities this area has to offer. Rural but 5-10 min drive max to petrol and shops.
Hosts are onsite and super friendly and welcoming, as is their dog, Bess, who we loved visiting us! Huge, immaculate lawn which our boys enjoyed playing cricket on with four hens as spectators!
Couldn't rate this place or hosts highly enough, would absolutely stay again!
