Stoneridge Estate

We stayed in the separate cottage. A whole different kind of experience. Oozing with charm and romanticism. With breathtaking views through the vineyards of Lake Hayes. Almost at the junction which leads to Arrowtown. Plus a nice cooked breakfast each morning, as well as wine/cheese platter each afternoon. Unlike what you've likely experienced before. Heartily recommend!

We had our wedding at Stoneridge Estate and also stayed at the accommodation for 3 nights. The setting was absolutely magical and the service from staff was to a high standard. The food that was served at our wedding was exceptional and paired wines were also tasty. The rooms were also very nice. We would recommend staying at Stoneridge Estate and getting married here to anyone.

The Stoneridge team made our wedding dreams come to life! Sue, our wedding coordinator was super helpful, quirky and simply wonderful. Thomas initially showed us around in January 2023 and made it a no-brainer for us to hold our big day at this stunning venue. London and Suzanne had immense patience with our correspondence back and forth is so appreciated. Wayne, the owner was tremendously kind and considerate. Our celebrant Catherine was an absolute storyteller. Evidently seasoned and flawless. Our MUA Paige and hairstylist Claire were so accommodating and patient. The flowers from The Flower Room were dreamy and totally exceeded our vision. Our DJ Paul was legendary and thoughtful. The staff at the Reception were efficient and receptive. Our photographer Jen from Alpine Image Co was an absolute ball to work with - so much good energy and assertion! The cake from Sophie Roseanna was absolutely marvellous and everyone devoured it! We are eternally grateful for Stoneridge, thank you. You are forever etched in our hearts.

We spent two nights at The Stoneridge with our family for our small wedding. During this time we occupied the entire lodge. The beauty of this property and its surroundings are even more striking in person. We enjoyed the high quality of the rooms; lovely bedding, linens, furnishings and decor. It was a luxurious touch to have included in our stay a complementary minibar, wine and cheeseboard plus turndown service. The staff were incredibly warm and kind, taking the time to chat and it felt like nothing was a bother to them. The chefs who made our daily breakfast did a fantastic job and there were a great variety of choices for all. We highly enjoyed every moment of our stay and our special day at The Stoneridge. We will be back!!!

Just spent 2 nights at this beautiful place for an annual reunion with friends. Stayed in The Milford Suite in The Retreat. Best suite we have ever stayed in… spacious, outstanding views over Lake Hayes and out to Coronet Peak, excellent in room amenities. Excellent breakfast is included, as is a cheese platter with wine each afternoon. Gardens are wonderful, staff exceptionally helpful, friendly and welcoming. Great place for celebrating a special occasion. 15 mins from Queenstown airport and lots of great dinning options within 15 mins drive. We loved every minute here.
