Hotel Description

Willowbrook offers both Bed and Breakfast and Self-Catering accommodation in an idyllic, rural location at the foot of Coronet Peak skifield in the heart of the beautiful Wakatipu Basin. Surrounded by majestic alpine scenery, we are only 15 minutes from the bright lights of Queenstown and 5 minutes from the quaint and historical settlement of Arrowtown and The Hills course - home of the NZ Open Golf Championship. Award - winning Millbrook Resort is also close by (just three minutes' drive from the front gate of Willowbrook) and we are within easy reach of 5 skifields and 4 very picturesque golf couses. The four acres of mature garden surrounding the Main House of Willowbrook contain a tennis court, a luxurious spa pool and some very friendly sheep.

The MAIN HOUSE, built in 1914, has been lovingly renovated and while it retains many of its original features such as high ceilings, tongue and groove red beech flooring, wood panelling (and even a pressed tin ceiling in one of the bedrooms), it now boasts modern comforts like central heating, ensuite bathrooms and Sky TV. The very large guest lounge has not one but two open fires, some very comfortable settees and a small library. Indeed relaxing by the fire after a soak in the spa pool has become very popular at Willowbrook ... Tea and coffee are available in the guest lounge and there is a built-in fridge should you need to keep anything cool. In case you are travelling with your laptop, the Main House has wireless broadband and complimentary email facilities are provided in the lounge allowing you to keep in touch with family, friends and business contacts.

There are three double rooms in the Main House:
Super king bed with ensuite bathroom (shower, wash basin and toilet);
Queen bed with ensuite bathroom (shower, wash basin and toilet);
Twin king single beds with private bathroom (shower, bathtub, wash basin and toilet).

Electric blankets are standard and each room has a hair dryer and radio alarm. The super king and twin single rooms can accommodate a rollaway bed (extra charge) in case a party of three does not wish to be separated. A delicious continental breakfast of juice, peeled and sliced fresh fruit, yoghurt, cereal, homemade bread and tea or coffee is included in the room rate in the Main House and is served in the dining area by the fire in the guest lounge. There is an extensive selection of brochures and guides on all the things to see and do locally and we, as agents for most of the local operators, can offer advice and help in answering some of your questions. After breakfast you might like to take your coffee outside to a seat on the front deck and watch the parapentes drifting gently down from Coronet Peak (although there are more of them in the afternoons when the thermals are better!)

Our self-catering accommodation comprises The COTTAGE and The BARN. Both are within the gardens of Willowbrook only a short distance from The Main House.

The COTTAGE provides delightfully comfortable accommodation for four people. It has queen and twin single bedrooms, both with ensuite bathroom (one with large wet area and bathtub). The twin single room can accommodate a rollaway bed (extra charge) in case of a party of five. Underfloor heating throughout keeps the bathroom tiles and the polished concrete floors warm to the touch and full kitchen and laundry facilities ensure that all the conveniences of home are at your fingertips. The Cottage has wireless broadband for your laptop and living areas are open plan with a large Malaysian rubberwood dining table forming the centrepiece and comfortable sofa and 'Lazy Boy' chairs around the television. Sky TV is provided for your entertainment and there is a gas barbecue on the sundeck which surrounds The Cottage. Views are up to Coronet Peak and over wetlands to the west.

With its own access road and car park, The Cottage is the perfect retreat for those seeking seclusion and independence. But if you do need any advice on the many things to see and do in this exciting region, simply wander over to the Main House and Trish and Tony (the managers of Willowbrook) will be only too happy to help.

The BARN is a tastefully renovated hay barn consisting of two very large rooms and is perfect for families or for couples in search of a little more privacy along with a self-catering environment. The main room has a super king bed, ensuite bathroom, lounge area, dining table and chairs and a fully equipped kitchenette with cooktop, microwave oven, toaster, electric jug, coffee plunger and plenty of fridge space. The Barn has wireless broadband for your laptop, Sky TV is provided for your entertainment and powerful gas heating is available at the touch of a button.

Through a connecting door, The Annex has twin single beds and is available for extra members of the same party or simply if more space is required. The Annex also contains two bunk beds which can be used if there are five or more in the group. On the sunny north side of The Barn is a covered deck with gas barbecue - the perfect spot to relax in the shade in the summer (or to tune-up those skis in the winter!)

With its own access road and parking area, The Barn is as private as you want it to be. But as with The Cottage, if you do need any advice on the many things to see and do in this exciting region, simply wander over to the Main House and Trish and Tony (the managers of Willowbrook) will be only too happy to help.
