ABOUT US
A little about us:
Your Hosts Jennie and Ged moved to Queensberry from Queenstown in 2011. We are one of many previous owners of the Inn since it was established in 1867 We very much feel like custodians of the Inn, doing everything we can to preserve and retain its history and charm . Our background in the Film Industry took us far and wide overseas. We enjoy welcoming guests from many countries, and hope they can enjoy and indulge in the property and the surrounding area just as much as we love to.

Elizabeth - Germany
"The property is gorgeous! Such a unique place and we were so taken away by the beautiful garden and history of the space. While it is obviously an old building, it also felt impeccably clean. The hosts are so great and very helpful with providing recommendations. Breakfast in the morning was wonderful and the location is very convenient for a drive from wanaka or if you are on your way to queenstown. Very cool place!".
