About this property

Lovely Central Otago Holiday House

Bannockburn Willows is nestled in the heart of the Bannockburn village and set on a half-acre of park like grounds. This is the perfect place to relax and enjoy your stay in wonderful Central Otago.

This Bannockburn holiday home has open plan living including a wood burner and heat pump for cosy winter escapes. For summer stays, the generous grounds are perfect for family games in the sun, or sitting back and admiring the incredible scenery. With its 3 bedrooms ( 2 queens and 1 king single), this family friendly home offers accommodation for up to 5 guests.

Next door is the very popular Black Rabbit Café, and the Bannockburn Hotel is a very short stroll down the road. The world renowned Felton Road and Cairnmuir vineyards are just a short distance away. A little further a field is the Highlands Motorsport Park, and Cromwell and its historic old town. And Wanaka and Queenstown are only a 45 minute drive away.

Bannockburn Willows is a great base to return to after your days exploring the region. For the walkers, the Bannockburn sluicing’s are a short distance away. For the bikers, the Dunstan Trail is just down the road. For the boaties, paddle-boarders and swimmers, the Bannockburn Inlet is just around the corner.

Your Central Otago mini-break or holiday awaits you at Bannockburn Willows!!

Excellent Property

This is a lovely house with a very private and sizeable yard right in Bannockburn. I really liked the decor and extra touches the host provided. This was the only property on our trip that provided plunger coffee. There were lots of nice quality details even though the house is a slightly older style. Highly recommend.

Wonderful!

We had a wonderful time staying at this property in Bannockburn. The house was perfectly set up for an enjoyable Christmas break for my family. Good location as it was sheltered from the wind and nice to be rural. The house was exactly as described and very comfortable for us during our stay. I would highly recommend this house for a holiday in this region. Very handy for the cycle trails too!

A great place to stay. Located great to go to Queenstown, Wanaka, Alexandra, Arrowtown & Clyde for day trips. Next door to a fantastic cafe & very close to Bannockburn pub. Both have awesome food. Quiet area. House has well equipped kitchen. Comfortable beds. Would stay again. Paula & Scott great to deal with.

Fantastic weekend location

The property was very suitable for 2 couples, 3rd bedroom was small with king single and I believe a trundler, so not going to be ideal for 3 adult couples. Kitchen was well stocked with utensiles. Everything was in very good condition, Location was great. Only 2 negatives was the 4pm check in and The towels.
