This week, I thought I might
just show some beautiful New Zealand homes.


This one is called Azur Lodge, in Queenstown.
It's a gorgeous home and accommodation!



When people describe homes as idyllic, this is what they mean...


What a beautiful room.


The interiors are so well done, so appropriate for the Lodge.

I imagine there are many great gatherings spaces
throughout the Lodge.





Check those views out the window!




I wonder how much sun baking weather they get down there???

Outdoor fire
that would be an amazing place to be early evenings...



Some of the views,
The Remarkables mountain range, Lake Wakatipu
and Walter and Cecil Peaks.



Pretty, yes?
