Chris 
“Great accommodation.”
It was very clean and well presented. New carpet by the look and feel of, so made sure we took our footwear off. Only negative was the fridge did not work, and it was not until after the first night, with a fridge full of food, we realized this. No facecloths, bit annoying but this is the new norm of Bachcare apparently... This is a lovely home with good amount of kitchen utensils. Good quality sheets and towels, most appreciated. Would definitely stay again.

Lee “This property is one of our favourites.”

- Lee, March 2024Adam “The Southern Belle was a nicely laid-out house.”
The fans in each room were much appreciated. The house was very clean and tidy. However, the oven was broken and while it was repaired on our third day, no warning was provided that it was not fully functional. There were no oven mitts and the dining chairs are a bit rough (throw pillows had been strapped to the bottom of them?) Considering the significant (~500$) addendum on the price provided by bachcare these issues are not exactly forgivable.
- Adam, January 2024Thank you for reviewing your recent stay, Adam. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your Cromwell holiday spent in Southern Belle. Your comments have been shared with the local team and property owner, to improve future guest's experience. There had been an issue with the oven during a previous booking, which we do apologise if this was not communicated to you before you checked-in. I will be investigating this with my teams. Thanks again for leaving your feedback and we look forward to hosting you again in the future. Bachcare
Julie “Issue with oven,lower bake did not work, oven tray filthy, rang Bachcare person who came to property said "its the type of oven you will have to turn your croissants over to bake on bottom and the same with toasties - was impossible for us to cook xmas ham.”

All 6 dining chairs have no padding totally uncomfortable. was frozen packet of meat left from previous guests in freezer (dated 8/23) 3 items of rubbish found under seat ( snack packet & 2 plastic items) , carpet at doorway threadbare Property does not live up to description very basic Photos taken if required. totally overpriced experience
- Julie, December 2023Hi Julie, We are very sorry to hear of the experience that you have had for your holiday. Your feedback is being discussed with our local team and the property owner. This was far below our standard and is being investigated urgently. We do understand that our local team and the property owner did make significant effort to address these issues while you were in-stay, so it is disappointing to hear that this was not satisfactory. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and will be used to improve the experience of future guests, as this property is usually very well received. Bachcare

The property
Tucked away on a quiet Cromwell street and enjoying stunning mountain views, this three-bedroom modern home is simply ideal for your Otago family getaway. Welcome to Southern Belle! Situated on a rear section, Southern Belle offers plenty of everything to make your holiday one to remember. From space to park the car and boat, through to generous open-plan living that flows seamlessly onto your sun-drenched patio and fully fenced lawn. This Cromwell holiday home is furnished with your comfort in mind. An L-shaped leather couch is perfect for putting your feet up with a good book, turning on the Smart TV to catch up on that show everyone’s been talking about, or posting some of your holiday pics using the unlimited complimentary WIFI. Heat pump technology allows you to set the perfect temperature at the touch of a button, whatever the season. A fully equipped kitchen is on hand to self-cater your stay, while a BBQ on the patio is waiting for you to grill up a feast and dine alfresco long into the warm summer evening. Later, pop the dishes in the dishwasher and retreat to your own little haven to recharge the batteries for tomorrow. Southern Belle offers three generous bedrooms for up to nine guests to rest their heads. The master features a luxurious king size bed and ensuite bathroom, while the other rooms are fitted with queen and single bed options, and share a Jack-and-Jill style bathroom. An additional guest toilet completes the set up for your stay. Southern Belle is in a great location less than 1km from the Cromwell Heritage Precinct and the banks of the Kawerau River. If a road trip brings you here, why not bring the bikes to hit the trails - you can safely store them in the garage when you’re not out riding. For your everyday conveniences, you’ll find a supermarket, pharmacy, and more shops and eateries five minutes away in Cromwell town, and for adventures further afield, Queenstown and Wanaka are less than an hour away. Enjoy a comfortable stay surrounded by natural beauty, here at Southern Belle!
There are life-jackets available to use with the kayak, but we do recommend that guests bring their own well-fitting life-jackets to ensure safety.
