    We really enjoyed our stay at Canyons B&B! Jennie was a great host who made us feel welcome and showed us around the amazing property. Amazing views of the Shotover river and the breakfast is perfect! We utilised the spa and loved how close the place was to Queenstown centre. Such a great place to relax and unwind after a long day of action!

    it was unique and whilst still private felt like a private home. from the happy hour from 5-6 where the fridge was stocked with nice wine to the jars of sweets that you could grab if you needed a little sugar.
