“We loved it and we'll be back. Good dog friendly accommodation is hard to find!!!!”
Myself, my flatty, my nephew and his g/f all went down to Queenstown for a long weekend. I found Trelawn just by chance after phoning around a few places in Queenstown to see if I could book somewhere that would allow us to bring our four legged hairy baby (George) along too. Michael and Nery were more than happy for us to bring George.
The property is set in absolutely beautiful scenic setting, the views are breathtaking and it's only about 5 minutes drive fron Queenstown. We were greeted by Nery and their own hairy babies on arrival and shown to our lovely, cosy cottage to the side of the main house. Michael had the fire going for us and the electric blankets on in our beds..lovely!
George was a bit aprehensive at first with Rusty and Sara (the resident corgi's)...I think an unspoken pact was eventually agreed...stay out of way while the messy bulldog eats his dinner on the porch.....wait till the coast is clear and QUICK get in for the leftovers ha ha it seemed to work for them.
We had a pretty busy day on the Sat in Queenstown but got back to the cottage just after t to find fire had been re-stocked for us and George was happily snoring in front of it (litte did we know that Michael and Nery had taken him out for a stroll in the afternoon....they didn't get too far ha ha lazy bulldog!). After a few tipples we headed down to the outdoor jacuzzi to relax and watch the shooting stars until our bones were relaxed and our skin resembling that of a prunes! The following day we headed up the mountain for a spot of snow boarding, which is only about 15 min away in the car and we managed to squeeze in a bungee jump before heading back to the shakey ground of Christchurch.
This was an excellent weekend, our accommodation was brilliant, cosy and warm. Michael and Nery are great hosts who make you feel welcome, comfortable and happy.
We could have happily stayed another week or 2. We will definately be back again, I would highly recommend this accommodation to all and for those who are responsible dog owners (there are some that ruin it for us others...prob why it's so hard to get accommodation that will take pets!!) , Michael and Nery go out of their way to make ur four legged baby's welcome too.
Thank you so much for having us! We can't wait till our next visit.
