We really enjoyed our stay at the barn! The kitchen was great and it was very cozy eating dinner with the fireplace going on a rainy night. It is a quirky stay, which felt a little clustered and dusty, but it was a great stay overall.

The Barn was clean, had all the supplies we needed and the host was very helpful in making our trip comfortable. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a unique experience with an outstanding view and location.

We stayed here for 3 nights whilst skiing at Coronet Peak. The location is great, the accommodation was very comfortable and the unique style really added to our experience. Judy was a perfect host and we would definitely stay again when in Queenstown.

A truly unique stay. Judy is a warm and gracious host. She has curated a diverse collection of period curios that adds atmosphere to the large living area. There are comfortable sofas and chairs in various sitting areas and a large comfortable bed upstairs. It's very quiet and the views of the mountains are incredible. This was one of our best stays in New Zealand.

We all had an amazing time in the barn. The bathrooms heated floor is perfect and matched with amazing water pressure and the fire kept us warm throughout our stay.

The Barn is like a second home. There is so much detail and care Judy puts into this amazing slice of paradise. So many recommendations for what to do. After going out and adventuring all day it was so nice to come back to a warm and cozy place. The fireplace was so nice to be able to put on and watch movies and relax. The kitchen is kitted out with everything youd need to be able to cook. Definately will be back next time we are in Queenstown. Thank you Judy

Thank you for your kind Review and for being such great guests. Pleased The Barn had everything you needed and you found the atmosphere cozy and relaxing. So rewarding as a host to know that your enjoyed your stay as much as I enjoyed meeting you both. It was fun to find through our friendly conversations that we had several things in common. Thanks for staying, I would welcome you back in a heartbeat! Best wishes, Judy

The best accommodation we have ever stayed in and we have travelled all over the world! Highly recommend. Judy’s barn is warm, cosy and quaint. The decor is wonderful. We loved everything about it, especially the fire, pool table/dart board and the fully equipped kitchen complete with stainless cookware (no toxic non-stick). It is a magnificent home away from home. Judy is a wonderful host. She is so welcoming and very helpful. We really appreciated her guide on the area, her in person welcome to the barn and sweet check in message during our stay to check everything was okay. A visit to her doll museum is a must too! Thank you Judy for being a great host and sharing your wonderful property with us,

After a very disappointing start with a delay of almost 3 hours to gain entry and having been given the wrong address (having to go via a construction site) we eventually entered the barn with the host still preparing the premises. Judy was very friendly and apologetic but by this time it had started to rain and the weather was miserable and we just wanted to get settled. We left Judy preparing the barn and went out for provisions. We had originally planned to go out for a meal but it was now too late. It took awhile to settle in and get cosy. Once as we were settled it was a lovely comfortable stay. The barn has a lot of quirky touches and charm. Very cosy and warm when the fire was lit.

I can only apologise once again for the unusual circumstances that lead to your delay in gaining entry. I had only just returned from the Nth Island after attending to an unexpected family bereavement and funeral which made for a tight changeover on my return. In my haste to get the barn ready I inadvertently gave you the wrong address and apologised. I appreciated your aparent patience at the time. For clarification, it is clearly stated in my online listing description, that notification is required ahead if guests need an extra bed set up. This was not requested by you and accounted for extra set up time after your arrival, as you confirmed that indeed an extra one was needed. Despite your disappointment, now expressed publicly, I am happy that you ended up enjoying your stay over all.
