Montrose is a 260-hectare private alpine valley retreat situated in the Canterbury high country at the base of the Southern Alps. With 2 kilometers of Rakaia River frontage and surrounded by magnificent mountain ranges, rushing turquoise blue glacial waters and an abundance of wildlife, Montrose is the personification of peace and tranquillity. Salmon filled ponds fed by the purest spring creeks, black swans as residents of your own 5 acre lake and native birdcalls provide a calming and welcoming atmosphere. Breathe in the crisp alpine air and let nature refresh your spirits. At Montrose we invite you to feel at home, be relaxed, be yourself, and enjoy all of the benefits that Montrose has to offer.
