Receptionist when we arrived was not particularly helpful but the other staff were friendly and helpful. The room was mostly good but considering it was supposed to be for 4 people there was no table or chairs. We had to use outdoor chairs to sit on inside.

This is a stunning location. However the particular unit we had was in need of some general maintenance. We specifically paid more for a unit with a deck but then couldn't use it because the outdoor furniture was in such bad condition you couldn't sit on it. We got provided 2 teabags and hardly any sugar which is not good in a serviced unit. If you want hotel type service with bed making and replenished supplies, don't stay here. Ive stayed here a lot but always had other units. This one was disappointing.

Lovely hotel by a lake

A wonderful hotel room. Very spacious with good facilities and on the ground floor (there’s no lift). The onsite restaurant is good, which is essential as the hotel is 7km from the nearest town (Cromwell). The lake makes a nice backdrop and a good place to walk.
