“Hidden Gem!”

Reviewed 20 March 2013

Stayed a week with Kevin & Glenys & didn't want to leave. We felt more like friends, than paying guests. Kevin & Glenys were interesting & interested making our stay so enjoyable. The historic house is spotless & well loved. Fascinating photos & news articles of the 1870's house adorn the walls that give you a real insight into the... More

“Wonderful, fabulous, a truly marvellous experience!!!!!!!!”

Reviewed 19 March 2013

We stayed with Glenys and Kevin for six nights, and wish it was six months. The spacious area we had ensured that the peace and quiet of the location continued in the house. As hosts, they are exceptional, breakfast beautiful, i have even bought a yoghurt maker as Glenys converted me to making my own. Buckley was so well behaved.... More

“Highly Recommended!”

Reviewed 16 February 2013

My wife, my mother, my father and I stayed with Glenys and Kevin, Buckley and the Cats for four nights in Feb 2103. The house is beautiful, the history is enthralling, and the area is truly beautiful, but it was Glenys and Kevin that really made the place for us. Glenys' attention to detail in the house was excellent, and... More

Thanks for those kind words and taking the time to write your review. We enjoyed your company and hope to see you again sometime in the not too distant future. Hope your Mum and Dad have a safe journey back to Ireland, your dad can dream all the way about that big Brownie he caught. More

“Home away from home”

Reviewed 20 January 2013

We had a lovely stay with Glenys and Kevin in Queenstown. The house is beautiful and the location is peaceful and remote. The home cooked breakfasts were delicious and Buckley the dog was a great addition! It is a bit of a drive from the city centre, but we really enjoyed being away from the hustle and bustle of Queenstown... More

My family of 4 adults (include my in-laws) and my daughter (9 years old) had a wonderful and warmest stay of 3 nights during the NY holidays. The history of the house dated back to 125 years old, with so much to learn from, it's so well kept and organized with Wifi. Glenys (the host) is a wonderful lady, very... More

“The Best B&B I have ever stayed at...”

Reviewed 27 October 2012

Situated a short 10 min drive outside of the Queenstown city centre this gorgeous B&B has it all. Glenys and Kevin are just such wonderful hosts - considerate, generous in their sharing of knowledge of the area and exceptional in their level of care and attention to detail. To top everything off, the added presence of Buckley the dog and... More

Well I am lost for words! What can I say other than Thank you so much for your wonderful words. All I can say is, having guests like yourselves make it a pleasure to be a host. :-)) More

“A special place in queenstown”

Reviewed 27 August 2012 via mobile

We chose the ferry after reading numerous positive reviews. A perfect location and house for our family of 6 as we were lucky enough to have the whole house to ourselves. Glenys (the host) was amazing having the fire lit for us to come home to was a bonus as was fresh bread baked. The history of the house made... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review for The Ferry B & B we appreciate your comments. It was a pleasure to host your family and we look forward to seeing you again, maybe in the summertime. It is no trouble to light the fire and bake a loaf of bread when it is so appreciated, we... More

“A Warm Home Away from Home”

Reviewed 21 April 2012

It would be difficulty to add much to all the other five-star reviews of The Ferry already here. My wife, daughter and I spent three nights at the Ferry in March and found it flawless. Glenys and Kevin are wonderful hosts, full of warmth and truly made of feel like family over our all too brief stay. The rooms are... More

“Lovely place!”

Reviewed 20 April 2012

By coincidence we ended up at "The Ferry bed & breakfast". What a warm welcome we had! We really enjoyed the hospitality and views. A great location. No crowds, only birds singing when I enjoyed my cup of coffee! Loved it!

Thank you for taking the time to write a review for us. We enjoyed the impromptu afternoon tea we shared with you Ian and Jule's. It was a very pleasant interlude. We hope you will call again before you leave Queenstown. More

We had a very pleasant stay at the Ferry. The rooms were comfortable and everything was exquisitely clean. Our hosts' dog came to visit at our request and took us on a walk the next morning.
