Pause to take welcome breath in Arrowtown

Pause to take welcome breath in Arrowtown

March 14, 2013|Posted in: arrowtown, new zealand, post, south island, travelBlog, where to stay|By: anita

True, looking for a cosy place to pause and take a welcome breath, that was the goal. Truth be told, we are in a ongoing fine-weather-stress here in New Zealand and that since our arrival end of January. Persisting fine-weather-stress basically means: get out earlier and trolling the streets all day long, always in panic …

Arrowtown, our little hometown close by Queenstown

Arrowtown, our little hometown close by Queenstown

March 13, 2013|Posted in: arrowtown, new zealand, post, queenstown, south island, southern lakes, travelBlog, where to explore|By: anita

Arrowtown is really a fascinating little settlement which literally sprung up overnight with the discovery of gold in the Arrow River in 1862. At our first visit I thought: wow, nothing but touristy…and I didn’t like it too much. Today, after having spend a couple of days in a nice apartment, a little out-of-town, I …

There are many good options to dine out in Queenstown, offering different tastes and styles. Take the Fishbone Bar & Grill for example, a rocking place and still buying from the same Bluff fisherman they have been dealing with for 21 years! Or get your cafe at Joe’s Garage, a laid-back laneway cafe or seek …

Queenstown: Staying at The Rees Hotel with a gorgeous view on the Remarkables

March 11, 2013|Posted in: new zealand, post, queenstown, south island, travelBlog, where to stay|By: anita

I have to admit, The Rees Hotel in Queenstown, situated right on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, is a great option to stay, although it kind of comes like a little sledge-hammer blow after staying at rather small and cosy bed and breakfasts. The Rees, a five star hotel offers hotel rooms and apartments, all …

Although Wanaka is still a small town it offers a couple of decent places to dine out. Maybe it’s because of the rapid growth of the town itself (50% over the past 10 years) or the popularity as a fancy lifestyle reserve – who knows – but you’ll find a good selection of different restaurants …

March 3, 2013|Posted in: central otago, lake wanaka, new zealand, post, south island, travelBlog, where to stay|By: anita

A stay at any great bed and breakfast often stands and falls with your co-guests, and not only hinges on your hosts. But that’s basically the capricious fate travelers have to accept. Yet, undoubtedly, the hosts are playing a big role in this concept of overnight lodging and Mike and Carla did a great job. …

The Town House is located at the northern end of the main street and offers solid, global cuisine for lunch and dinner. A perfect place in town, while the Bay Cafe …
