Fantastic stay in Cashmere!

The property on Holliss Avenue was great. It was beautifully warm on arrival. The views up and down the hillsides are awesome. It was well-equipped and we had a very comfortable stay. It was a really good size for the four of us and would comfortably suit six. Thank you!

Great location perfect family stay.

House was as described. Host had left the house warm and toasty when we arrived late at night. House accommodates a large family with ease. House was nice and clean and the beds were good. Kitchen was well equiped and milk was in the fridge. Would highly recommend it as a location central to town and the Port Hills.

Cozy, Spacious and Quiet

Wanted to stay close to our daughter and her family, with space to enjoy, and getting to know the city. We’ve visited before but a hotel was where we stayed. I will definitely revisit and hopefully stay in this place/home again! Clare was nice enough to allow an early check in since we live in the United States. Thank you again Clare!

Great location

We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and easy access to main roads and sites. It was roomy, basic, clean (except for kitchen floor not swept well) and well stocked! We would've appreciated washcloths and a more professional instruction paper with WiFi info n password. Password was on the back of a small torn receipt. Would recommend for groups and families.

Hi Amy, I am so sorry, I have just engaged a new cleaner and was not aware of the floor, lack of wash cloths and the wifi password instructions. I will take action on these things and really appreciate your feedback. Thank you! Regards Clare

Lovely views in beautiful part of Christchurch

2 single bedrooms and 2 double bedrooms. I upstairs bathroom with shower over and 1 downstairs shower room. Large, spacious living dining room upstairs with the most amazing views over Cashmere. Balcony leading out of the dining room where you can sit and take in the view. Easy drive to city centre or up into the hills. Or you can walk into the hills from the house. Very good bus service from bottom of the road. You could get to the port of Lyttleton or the city centre easily by bus. House was clean enough to feel at home but not sparkling. Parking for 2 cars in the drive.

The house was lovely and spacious and had everything we needed to be self contained for our week long stay. The location was great, we found it very easy to get to all sides of Christchurch, plenty of shops etc nearby and there is a great park just down the road for the kids.

Spent 3 nights at this property with 4 children, found it to be very spacious, warm clean & tidy. Showers had fantastic pressure & kitchen contained ample crockery & glassware. Only negative is the driveway which took a bit of getting used to but didn't cause any issues, would definitely reccomend this property, great value for money
