Lovely lovely home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Peter’s home is the perfect location for your stay in Wānaka as everything you’ll want to see and do is an easy walk or quick drive. The beds are soooo comfortable, the kitchen was very efficient and well equipped, washer and dryer are a nice plus as is the parking carport, and there is a ton of room inside and out. One of our most favorite stays!

The Art House experience
Four of us stayed at this beautiful, comfortable (especially the beds), well-equiped house. It was great to have the owner next door in case we had questions or concerns. Everything was in good working order & the laundry facility was great. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood with lovely views, easy off street parking with a 10 to 15 minutes walk to town. We were all delighted with our stay & have no hesitation in recommending it to others

Amazing home to stay
This is a truly lovely property that we felt privileged to call home for the week. Beds were all extremely comfortable and every amenity required was within the house. Great location and easy site access. Peter was really helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend this property.

Nicest house we stayed at in New Zealand
The art house was an absolutely wonderful base for exploring Wanaka. The home is decorated in a lovely way. Lots of beautiful art and little touches. Phenomenal beds and bedding. Fully stocked kitchen with upscale appliances. Great couches and chairs. Beautiful vegetable garden. The host, Peter, could not have been nicer. We’ve stayed in 18 homes on our 3 month trip. This is the first we’d love to live in.
