“Our second stay here”
It was our second time staying at Settlers Cottage. A wonderful cosy and character filled accommodation with friendly staff/owners. Lots of attention to detail and the location is superb. Short walk to cafes, shops and walking tracks. Stunning in Arrowtown with the trees in full autumn colours.

“A genuine settlers cottage accomodation.”
The vibe was very cottagy which we liked. The room was very spacious, good shower, and a comfy bed. Had 2 ceramic elements for light cooking which suited us. There are two outdoor seating areas for each unit to maximize the sun and the location was so close to everything. Our hosts were super friendly and gave helpful info for places to eat and things to do. Loved it.
