Ashton Glen Cottage is a small farmhouse located on our sheep and cropping farm at Clinton in South Otago. It is nestled at the base of the Popotunoa Hill and enjoys a wonderful view of Otago’s Blue Mountains to the north. We are 4 km's off State Highway One and 7 km's from the town-ship of Clinton.

Our cottage is a perfect base for those who love trout fishing. We are centrally located to many great fishing spots. Within 10 - 40 minutes drive from here, there are six re-known fishing rivers – the Clutha, Mataura (the best brown trout fishing river of the world!), Waipahi, Pomahaka, Waiwera & the Catlins River. Needless to say it is a great place from which to plan for yourself a few days of fishing.

It is also a nice relaxing spot for you and your family if you just want to get away from the ‘rat race’ for a few days, provided you don’t mind being surrounded by farm life. The wonderful southern scenery can be enjoyed within short day trips of our cottage. We boast that we are central to everywhere.

The Clinton town-ship has all the required local services and amenities such as; a Fuel Station, Grocery Store, Pub with meals, Café and Takeaway Shop, three Churches, Squash Courts, Tennis Courts, an excellent Golf Course and of course great people!

Our three bedroom cottage is fully self-contained and provides all that you require for a comfortable stay. Come and stay, and relax in the quiet of the country in our little cottage, which has recently be completely redecorated.
