WELCOME TO ALPINE HOME ESCAPE
Welcome to Alpine Home Escape, an architect-designed holiday home nestled on an elevated rural site just six minutes from the heart of Glenorchy, in New Zealand's spectacular Queenstown Lakes region.
Surrounded by native tussock, flax, kōwhai and lancewood, the home enjoys sweeping views across peaceful paddocks to some of New Zealand's most iconic mountains, including Mount Earnslaw, Mount Alfred, the Humboldt Mountains and the Paradise Valley.
Whether you're planning a family holiday, an outdoor adventure or simply a chance to slow down, Alpine Home Escape offers a peaceful base where thoughtful design, comfort and nature come together.
YOUR SUMMER BASE IN GLENORCHY
Summer is when Glenorchy truly shines.
Long daylight hours, warm evenings and spectacular alpine scenery create the perfect setting to reconnect with family, friends and the outdoors.
Start your morning with breakfast on the deck as the first light reaches Mount Earnslaw. Spend the day exploring nearby walking tracks, swimming in Lake Wakatipu, kayaking, cycling or discovering the surrounding valleys. Return home for dinner on the veranda before unwinding in the private hot tub beneath a sky full of stars.
Whether you're here for adventure or relaxation, Alpine Home Escape is designed to help you enjoy everything a Glenorchy summer has to offer.
ARCHITECT DESIGNED FOR COMFORTABLE SUMMER LIVING
Alpine Home Escape was architecturally designed using Passive House principles to create a home that remains naturally comfortable throughout the warmer months.
Large windows frame the surrounding mountains while filling the home with natural light. Shade blinds help keep the interior cool on warmer afternoons, while large sliding doors open onto the spacious veranda, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living.
The deck faces directly toward Mount Earnslaw, providing the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, read a book, share a meal or simply watch the changing light across the mountains.
THE HOME
Designed with families and small groups in mind, Alpine Home Escape offers relaxed, practical living rather than unnecessary luxury.
Features include:
• Architect-designed Passive House home
• Private hot tub surrounded by native tussock and flax
• Panoramic mountain views from the living areas, deck and spa
• Spacious covered veranda with outdoor dining
• Fully equipped kitchen
• Comfortable open-plan living and dining
• Quality bedding and linen
• Fast Wi-Fi
• Smart TV
• Laundry facilities

From the spa you'll enjoy uninterrupted views toward Mount Earnslaw, Mount Alfred and the Humboldt Mountains while feeling sheltered amongst the surrounding native planting.
A PLACE TO SLOW DOWN
Life moves differently here.
Wake to birdsong instead of traffic.
Watch morning mist lift from the surrounding farmland.
Spend your days exploring mountain tracks before returning for an evening soak beneath the stars.
The elevated rural setting provides a wonderful sense of peace and privacy while still being only a short drive from Glenorchy's cafés, lakefront and local amenities.
DISCOVER GLENORCHY
Often described as one of New Zealand's most beautiful destinations, Glenorchy sits at the northern end of Lake Wakatipu and is surrounded by mountains, rivers, native forests and world-class walking tracks.
The drive between Queenstown and Glenorchy is widely regarded as one of New Zealand's most spectacular scenic drives, making the journey itself part of your holiday.
While Glenorchy feels wonderfully peaceful, Queenstown is only around 45 minutes away, making it easy to enjoy the restaurants, wineries and attractions of the wider Queenstown Lakes region before returning to the quiet of the mountains.
A PARADISE FOR WALKERS
Alpine Home Escape is perfectly located for guests wanting to explore some of New Zealand's finest walking tracks.
Nearby day walks include:
• Glenorchy Lagoon Walkway
• Diamond Lake Track
• Precipice Creek Track
• Invincible Track
• Mount Judah Track
The property is also an excellent base before or after completing some of New Zealand's most iconic multi-day hikes, including:
• Routeburn Track (one of New Zealand's Great Walks)
• Rees–Dart Track
• Greenstone–Caples Track
Whether you're tackling a Great Walk or simply enjoying a gentle stroll, Glenorchy offers walking opportunities for every level of experience.
EXPLORE BEYOND GLENORCHY
Many guests include Glenorchy as part of a wider South Island adventure.
Queenstown, Arrowtown and the surrounding Central Otago region are all within easy reach for day trips.
Fiordland National Park and the world-famous Milford Sound are also popular destinations. Although Milford Sound is relatively close as the crow flies, the drive is a full-day journey through spectacular scenery. Many experienced trampers instead connect the Glenorchy and Fiordland regions by completing the famous Routeburn Track.
EXPERIENCE SUMMER IN GLENORCHY
Summer offers endless opportunities to enjoy this remarkable part of New Zealand.
Swim in the clear waters of Lake Wakatipu.
Kayak along the shoreline.
Explore quiet back roads and braided rivers.
Enjoy a picnic surrounded by mountains.
Watch the evening light settle across Mount Earnslaw from the deck.
Or simply spend the afternoon relaxing at the house while the children play outside and the mountains provide the backdrop.
As evening arrives, enjoy dinner outdoors before finishing the day with a peaceful soak in the hot tub under some of New Zealand's clearest night skies.
For many guests, these simple moments become the highlight of their stay.

Alpine Home Escape has been created as a place where families and friends can spend genuine time together.
Cook meals in the well-equipped kitchen.
