Reviews
A blissfull place to stay We recently spent three glorious days here with friends from Sweden. The house and grounds are beautiful with the house having everything that you could possibly need, including a wonderful log fire for those chilly nights. Recommended for couples or families. We will definitely be back”  18/6/2018
 
A enchanting family escape We had an amazing 4 days in this magical location, ringed by snow-capped mountains. The house was quiet, cozy and comfortable – snuggling up in front of the log fire after a day in the cold was wonderful. The absolute highlight was waking up to find that it had snowed overnight, our girls were overjoyed! We hope to visit again”. Salveo New Zealand  Reviewed 3 August 2017 
 
A marvellous place in New Zealand Traveling for two months in New Zealand and Australia, Jewel on Speargrass is absolutely our favourite place, were we spent Easter Holidays with Australian friends. Wonderful and cosy house, lovely garden, and situated not far away from beautiful Queenstown with a lot of activities. A perfect holiday place! We would love to come back“. Stayed: April 2017 Review By Lenaviba, Sweden
” There’s so much care and delight gone into getting this house prepped for the weary traveller. I was ready to relax and settle back into full on luxury and this was exactly what we were greeted with. A fully stocked garage with stand up paddle boards, should the desire to head to nearby Lake Hayes hit. Bikes and helmets for the ample amount of trails in the area and I love a good board game so I was in luck with those too   17/3/17  – Queenstown Life Review
We loved this property! Stunning location. Very private. Well equipped for a stay with our family. The kids loved the bunks and we loved the outdoor areas for afternoon drinks. Very comfortable. I would highly recommend.” Katrina May 2016 
A lovely cottage with an open plan living area and three bedrooms. Our biggest problem in life was the number of white rose petals floating through the doors and windows. It was tastefully and elegantly decorated although perhaps a little too much of a ‘love’ theme for a family of four plus aunt!  Rhians57 Jan 2016
Weddings
“Well what can I say, we had a beautiful time at Jewel on Speargrass. It was the perfect accommodation to finalise wedding arrangements leading up to our wedding. It was an ideal location to get to Thurlby Domain (next property), Peregrine Winery (18 min drive) and gatherings in Queenstown (15 min drive), Arrowtown (10 min drive) and trips to Queenstown Airport (13 min drive). The cottage was well equiped with everything we needed for our week stay. It was exceptionally clean and tidy and we appreciated the mid stay clean the day before the wedding.   It was the perfect size for our bridal party which slept up to 6 guests at one stage. There were many pre wedding photo opportunities at Jewel too and plenty of space for myself, my Mum and 4 bridesmaids to get ready. We at one stage had a team of 3 Hair and Makeup Stylists as well as a Videographer and Photographer and we were not in one another’s way. We thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful gardens and the styling of the cottage. It fit in beautifully with the styling of our wedding too. One of our favourite things was how cosy it was when the fireplace was on.  We felt very welcome from the first moment I even emailed and enquired to book Jewel on Speargrass. The ladies at Relax it’s Done went out of their way to ensure every question of mine was answered in detail. This was greatly appreciated as I was planning the wedding from Australia. The ladies went over and above to ensure our stay was flawless. 
Jewel on Speargrass is absolutely breathtaking and peaceful. It is a perfect cottage to be in throughout all seasons”. “Perfect cottage”
