Fabulous cottage accommodation Lake Hayes Cottages are very well appointed to the highest standard. Every detail has been thought of with tasteful decor throughout. Amazing views and fantastic location close to Arrowtown. A must visit. We can’t wait to stay again!

We had the most fabulous time staying at The Cottages, so much space, stunning artwork, comfy beds, fab views and great location right on the lake and so close to Arrowtown with restaurants if you want to go out. We went skiing and are planning a summer trip mountain biking now.
