Our stay at Strowan House 1 was beyond expectations. Rose our host met us on arrival and was most gracious in answering all our questions and helping us get settled with all our needs. Transportation to city centre by bus was outside our door, most convenient. The home was spotlessly clean and well stocked with all amenities such as towels and kitchen supplies. We would definitely stay again.

A home away from home

This property was perfect for our needs. It was a haven to come home to, after busy days sight-seeing. It is very comfortable, spacious and well equipped, and we appreciated the little extras that were provided. We were able to easily access the city each day. We would definitely stay here again.

Rose and Graham could not have been more gracious and accommodating as we planned our stay in Christchurch. SH1 was perfectly situated for access from CHC airport upon arrival, and walkable to nearby cafe and restaurants, along w. a chemist. Easy distance to Merivale or Northlands for groceries and other provisions, and quick navigation to University of Canterbury and Riccarton Bush by car

What a great spot, what a lovely place!

Perfection. I'm a fairly heavy user of hotel chains, apartment rentals, and other forms of accomodations, and it's been a true delight to stay here for my Christchurch visit this week. Everything was amazing. Everything was lovely - even the rain and hail, seemed to make the stay more pleasant in this place.

In Christchurch to watch some golf

We came to Christchurch for 5 nights to watch a golf tournament. The location was great, the place is spacious, comfortable and Rose set it up so that we could have the 2 singles as a king in the bigger bedroom. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hopefully we will return next time we’re in Christchurch.

About the host

Hosted by Rose Duncan

Host profile image
I am now living my dream of providing stylish comfortable home away from home accomodation to travellers. Being a traveller myself, I can appreciate that clean comfortable accomodation with great internet access is absolutely paramount to the enjoyment of your stay. Then to fall into a lovely comfy bed after a busy day gets you well rested to do it all again tomorrow! Along with my husband Graeme, we enjoy getting our home prepared for guests arrival. We are both avid readers, enjoy cycling and walking and spending time with our grown-up family and grandchildren.
