What to expect

Cromwell is a town in the Central Otago region of New Zealand's South Island, located on the shore of Lake Dunstan. The town has a rich history dating back to the gold rush days of the 1800s and is now known for its stone fruit and as part of the Central Otago wine region. Visitors can explore the historic Cromwell Heritage Precinct, which features buildings from 1860 to 1900, and take a tour of Lake Dunstan. The town is surrounded by rugged mountains and offers opportunities for swimming, fishing, boating, and water sports in the summer, and skiing in the winter. Cromwell is a great base for exploring the wider Central Otago region, with nearby towns such as Queenstown, Arrowtown, Wanaka, and Clyde within easy reach
