This Queenstown hotel set on a hill overlooking Lake Wakatipu and The Remarkables not only offers unique lodgings for guests but it boasts an enviable kitchen garden and orchard

Accommodation with a difference

With extensive kitchen gardens ringed by a slalom mountain bike track, it’s safe to say The Sherwood boutique hotel in Queenstown caters to a wide range of tastes. It has an outstanding seasonally focused restaurant and cocktail bar, while also being a yoga and wellness retreat, with the odd bit of meditation and Ayurvedic massage.

Along with ingredients foraged on the staff’s morning walks, The Sherwood team also collaborate with local farms and independent growers to offer sustainable produce from the region.

The hotel caters to a range of budgets with dorm rooms to full-size family suites all constructed from the bones of a 1980s mock-Tudor motel complex. It probably sounds a bit weird, but it works amazingly well.
