One of my most comfortable stays in the South Island. This is not cookie cutter and our hosts Jayne and Karl were very accommodating and even rented us excellent e-bikes too. These are extremely clean and well run small cottages and made my stay in Arrowtown extra special! I loved all the vintage furnishings and artwork

This was our second visit to Settlers, Jayne and Carl made us extremely welcome. We had the two bedroom cottage which had everything the two us needed. A very comfortable stay and I do thoroughly recommend this motel. It is a short pleasant walk into the centre of Arrowtown.

In a recent review of Settler's Cottage on the third party site that handled my booking, I included an honest opinion of the choice of exterior decor at this place. This included old stuffed upholstered furniture pieces and actual metal-framed day beds done up with linens and pillows which were situated on select outside porches and fully exposed to the cold and wet of the Arrowtown winter. I had the audacity to express concern for the presence of mold, dirt, and possible insects/vermin. In return I was essentially told off by the current owner/manager who speculated and also celebrated the thought that I would likely never be returning and accused me of having "too much time on my hands" for me to express such concerns. More realistically, I am willing to take the time to write this because my concerns are heartfelt. Far more offensive than the filthy and (to me) inappropriately-placed external "decor" is the ad hominem attacks that characterize management's response to each and every review which is less than 100% glowing. Just read them. Any issue raised, however legitimate, is rudely dismissed and met with a character assassination of the one daring to have an opinion or raise a concern. Granted, a good number of people seem okay with all this, based on star-ratings. But that does not negate the opinion of those of us who are not into mildew.

Our lovely unit had a bedroom and single bed in the lounge. It was spacious and warm and very comfy. There was a full dining table and couch. The owner is relaxed and friendly and we felt very at home. And there is a cat that you can bring into your room if you want a pet. Fantastic stay thanks.

Absolutely loved our stay ,Jayne & Carl made us very welcome, lovely spacious cottages, with everything we needed & very warm . A lot of the biking trails were right there , we spent 4 days just biking . Arrowtown is such a lovely Antique little town with lots of shops, restaurants , supermarket, biking & walking tracks & very close to Queenstown. Would Highly Recommend & will certainly be back. This is a Motel not Hotel as the questions indicate on this website

Absolutely loved our visit, the owners are lovely and really added a personal touch to the stay. I always really appreciate real (not uht) milk and the jug of milk was a cute little surprise. We were warm as toast the whole time and had a great night sleep. The shower is really nice and modern and the whole cottage had a lovely charm and was really spacious! Would highly recommend.

A return to the past complete with a welcoming cat. Furnished in a style that you thought has disappeared. Every home comfort and more. On-site parking adjacent to your unit. Personable hosts. Close to the shopping area in the historic village.

Everything was just as described on the website, if not better. Jayne was so helpful, friendly as well as professional. The rooms are very comfortable, furnished in an older style, with little touches like flowers on the table, making it feel very homely. It is only 5 minutes walk to the main part of town and there is also a good walk around the river. A delightful place to stay!

Lovely cottage style accomodation with kitchen facilities. Very friendly and helpful reception. Laundry - washing machine and dryer to use with coins. Quiet location. Near to town swimming pool. Rooms are clean, comfy and with their own cottage charm. Great for families and for multi night stays.
