Quentin's Cottage - cosy restored miner's house-close to rainforest and trails!

Let the wild stir your soul!

Get ready to unwind by the fire in our beautifully restored miner's cottage. Nestled among dramatic West Coast mountains with a view of Mt Owen. Quentin's Cottage is the perfect place to recharge for tackling the untamed West Coast.

For the adventurous it's 1.8km to MTB trails and close to ancient rainforest, hiking trails and Lake Burbury. Walk to town for art galleries, cafes, bars, and the iconic railway—then return to cozy up by the fire.

The space
All three bedrooms have their own unique character, featuring original timbers. Electric blankets ensure a warm and restful night’s sleep and electric heaters for those really cold nights.

Take in the views of Mt Owen from the backyard and unwind by the fire in the open-plan living area. Choose a book from the library, play a board game or puzzle, or curl up with a DVD from our extensive collection. A heat pump provides warmth in cooler months and air conditioning in summer.

The fully equipped modern kitchen includes a double oven, induction stove, and microwave—perfect for a cosy night in. The large island bench offers plenty of seating, and the copper benchtop pays tribute to Queenstown’s rich mining heritage and the people who once lived here.

After a day of exploring, hiking, or mountain biking, make use of the washing machine and dryer to refresh for your next adventure.

A cot is available on request at no extra cost—just let us know in advance so we can have it ready for you.

Please note that the property is 4 bedrooms with one of the bedrooms closed to store cleaning products, linen and kitchen supplies.

Guest access
You will have sole access to the property. Keys are available in the lock box at the front door. You will be provided with the code before your arrival.

Other things to note
Quentin’s Cottage is a peaceful retreat designed for unwinding and reconnecting—with each other and with nature. Enjoy board games, books, and DVDs by the fireplace, creating cherished moments together.
