New Zealand family rentals

This is the 2nd year we have stayed at Chalet in the Shire and it is still every bit as wonderful as our first time was. One the most comfortable beds we have ever slept on, clean and comfortable, a huge fenced grass paddock for the pooch to frolic in, plus breakfast items consisting of eggs, toast, jam, muesli, milk and fruit juice are stocked in the chalet upon arrival. The ice tray was full and a jug of cold water in the fridge ready to drink. It's this extra care that will keep us going back for years to come still. Thanks again Sarah.

We had a really lovely time at the Cabin. It has so much rustic charm and character combined with the most modern comforts. We were so comfortable and well looked after, great easy communication and we had everything we needed. No details spared. The loft bedroom was so cozy, especially after we got the fire going and the absolute highlight was the hot tub. Lying in the warm water looking up at the stars after some busy days in Queenstown was so nice. Thanks so much!

We had a gorgeous weeks stay in the cottage. Spectacular views to the ocean and the standard of accommodation itself was excellent. A lot of thought put into the detailing which showed. Prue and Stephen.

Cosy cottage beautifully restored to a very high standard. Peaceful manicured Zen garden. Well appointed with everyone you could wish for. Extremely good value. Central location. Very secure and private. You would be hard pressed to find better. Highly recommended. Thankyou for a wonderful stay in Christchurch.

We had a wonderful time here. The house was clean, cozy and cute, and the location is absolutely stunning. I do think it’s important to note that there was a pamphlet in the cabin which had a pretty heavy emphasis on the hosts’ Christian faith. As a queer couple, this was a little uncomfortable for us. Personally, I feel that it would be more professional to keep business and religion seperate. However, the hosts were very polite and helpful and definitely didn’t make us feel uncomfortable at all in person. I couldn’t fault anything else - we really enjoyed our time here and would stay again.

I loved this place! It had charm, character, privacy, quiet, wildlife. Felt like I was living alone in the NZ bush, yet it was close to beach, transportation. Hosts provided fresh fruit, vegetables upon arrival. Hosts were gracious, responsive. I’d stay there again and I will recommend it to friends.
