Ayrburn, Arrowtown
Brown & Company Planning Group played a key role in helping bring the vision for the Ayrburn heritage precinct to life—one of Central Otago’s most recognised hospitality developments.
Working within a highly sensitive heritage and landscape context, Brown & Company provided strategic planning advice and guided the project through complex resource consenting and plan change processes. Their involvement helped balance the protection of Ayrburn’s historic character—dating back to the 1860s—with the delivery of a vibrant hospitality destination.
The transformation of the site from a historic farmstead into a multi-venue precinct required careful navigation of planning frameworks, heritage constraints, and environmental considerations. Brown & Company’s expertise ensured that the redevelopment respected the integrity of existing stone buildings, landscapes, and cultural values, while enabling innovative new uses that support long-term sustainability and public access.
