 "Lord of the Greens"
When Bill Clinton stayed at Millbrook Resort he spent practically every daylight hour on its championship golf course. Meanwhile, his daughter Chelsea spent almost as much time in the spa and gym. Few resorts anywhere are as spectacularly located as Millbrook near the South Island mecca of Queenstown. Surrounded by snowy peaks, Millbrook revels in 200 hectares of glorious space in a sunny valley near the outskirts of the picturesque gold-mining settlement of Arrowtown.
With so many guest activities, this recreational paradise can rightfully describe itself as New Zealand's leading lifestyle resort. Your choice of accommodation ranges from the spacious rooms of the pioneer-themed Village Inn and the beautifully appointed villa suites, all with emperor-sized beds, to fully self-contained, multi-roomed cottages with extensive outdoor living areas and stunning views. Millbrook's pampering day spa offers a full range of treatments, while the fully-equipped fitness centre includes a heated pool. A variety of excellent dining is of course part of the Millbrook experience.
When it's time to step out, the ski slopes of Coronet Peak in winter, the thrilling Shotover River and cosmopolitan Queenstown offer a heady cocktail of adrenaline sports and nightlife. Year-round, the more tranquil joys here include fly-fishing, hiking, visiting wineries and art galleries or taking a four-wheel-drive excursion into "Lord of the Rings" terrain.
"More than dining on greens!"
Both the award-winning Clubhouse Restaurant and the Hole in One Bar overlook the golf course and offer indoor (in front of the fire in winter) or outdoor dining. Specialities include local beef and lamb dishes. Millbrook have received the New Zealand Beef and Lamb awards for 2001, 2002 and 2003. The Clubhouse won Moffat South Island Restaurant of the Year in 2003.
