The Ferry Bed & Breakfast

We had a wonderful time here. Dan and Mitzi are lovely people and amazing hosts. We absolutely loved everything about this property. Dan and Mitzi’s home cooked breakfast is definitely recommended Would love to come back again.

Great place to stay. Beautiful location on the edge of Queenstown, near Shotover Bridge. You can walk out the front door for a ramble over the historic bridge and then up into the forest. Very comfortable house, with a lovely kitchen for the use of guests, should you wish to take a break from restaurants on your travels. Excellent cooked breakfast, with plenty of choice. Laundry facilities should you need them. Mitzi and Dan are very hospitable folks, and only too happy to put their local knowledge at your disposal. They keep silkies, ducks and Guinea pigs in the back garden, which are the source of much amusement, and the front garden is a riot of lovely roses. We were there two nights, and would happily have spent more. Excellent hospitality!

My husband and I celebrated our 50th anniversary in NZ and booked 5 nights at this lovely home with the most incredible views imaginable. Dan and Mitzi were so kind, pleasant and helpful in making the end of our 3 week adventures in NZ complete and soul enriching. We stayed in the heritage room and I strongly recommend this room because you are so comfortable and you are rewarded with a ridiculously adorable view of the chickens, ducks, guinea pigs and various birds in the area who are incredibly entertaining and the happiest creatures in a beautiful environment made just for them. The breakfast was a feast of goodness with homemade yogurt, jams, breads, etc. and made to order selections. The historic photos, local antiques and uniqueness of the historic building added to the remarkable experience. I cannot thank Dan enough for his guidance in making the best choices of incredible experiences for each day we were fortunately able to drive around the Queenstown area. A 5 star location in every way because you really do feel you are relaxing at home in the most amazing place with such warm and inviting hosts.

The Ferry was one of the loveliest B&B's that we have ever stayed in. Our hosts Dan and Mitzi were fantastic. They made us so welcome and provided us with tips regarding things to do and see nearby. As my wife is gluten intolerant, Mitzi provided gluten free treats each evening. The building and decor is so lovely and quaint. There was a big stove burning in the living room and plenty of space to relax and chat other guests after a busy day. The breakfast was really delicious and perfectly cooked. Dan and Mitzi make a great team, working diligently together. The location is great but you do need a car. Thank you for a lovely stay, Folks. Hopefully we'll get a chance to visit New Zealand again and if so, The Ferry will definitely be on our accommodation list.

Parel net buiten druk Queenstown Mitzi en Dan hebben de formule van een echte Engelse B&B toegepast op een rustig, van de weg gelegen, historisch NZ gebouw met een eigen verhaal. Een zeer goed ontbijt, zelfs deels à la carte, doen je de dag prima starten na een heerlijke nachtrust in een mooie kamer. De gastvrouw en heer staan je bij met goede tips en tricks voor zowel activiteiten als eetgelegenheden voor ‘s avonds. Dineren kan buitenshuis, maar er staat een hele keuken ter beschikking om zelf eten te maken. Wasmachine en droogkast gratis te gebruiken. Super hoe zij aan alles denken. Als het wat kil wordt, doen ze het gezellige haardvuur in de woonkamer aan. Echt fantastisch verblijf en vriendelijke eigenaars.

Absolutely amazing! Best stay of our trip. Lovely couple, lovely homemade breakfast, lovely room! The heated blanket in the bed and heated towel rack were amazing. The helpfulness during marathon week and places to eat and park really made our week in Queenstown a dream. Would definitely return.
