Visit Ayrburn, this highly popular dining destination is relatively new to the Queenstown basin. Ayrburn is a future lifestyle village (currently only offering dining options) located between Queenstown and Arrowtown, approximately 20 minutes drive from home. We recommend you stop by for a stroll through the beautifully landscaped gardens and some great photo opportunitie. Dining options can range from an ice cream from the very cute “the Dairy”, sample a wine tasting at “the Manure room”, pizza and mulled wine from “the Bakehouse”or enjoy a long lunch or dinner at “the Woolshed”.

a: Ayr Avenue, Arrowtown

tip: want to sample the wines and not worry about the drive? Catch the Ayrburn Bus from Athol Street ($10 pp/one way). Please check the Ayrburn website for the current timetable.
