    The photos advertising the cottage dont come close to doing it justice. The owners have paid attention to the minutest of detail and the cottage is beautifully furnished. The owners were very welcoming and had even made tasty flapjacks for us to enjoy. Beautiful and quiet setting and would definitely book again in the future.

    Gorgeous wee spot on Lake Hayes. Quiet. Comfortable. Easy access to the lake track. Lovely hosts! Felt like we were miles away from everything, yet we were close to all that the valley has to offer. Highly recommend.

    This is our 3rd stay at Tussock Cottage. I've been communicating with Jaap, and he and his wife are wonderful hosts. As usual, the place is tidy and clean, and our needs are cared for. You can feel the countryside living but at the same time well equipped with your modern needs. We'd always try to book in with Tussock Cottage whenever we travel to Queenstown. Looking forward to stay here again. Francis & Deviga

    What a gorgeous place to stay! Right beside beautiful Lake Hayes, surrounded by peace and quiet and birdsong. The bungalow was so snug, unique and embracing - it was easy to feel right at home. Our hosts were very welcoming and informative - we enjoyed the Farmers' Market they recommended we visit and the bookshelves were well stocked with interesting reading matter. Thankyou so much, it was an Easter to remember!

    Absolutely perfect place to be close to everything and yet away with privacy, next to Lake Hayes and lovely local walks, swimming, biking and kayaking. We loved our stay and could have totally stayed longer!! spacious and warm, very comfortable bed and linen, all amenities needed, and very well presented. We will be definitely coming back to stay!

    What a beautiful and cosy stay. Our lovely hosts thought of everything including free range eggs, Anzac biscuits and great coffee. The icing on the cake was that we could also bring our old pooch with us. Thanks so much. We will be back.
