Great spot for a family weekend away

Beautifully located next to Mt Richardson DOC area with lots of forest walks at your doorstep. The property is huge and great for adventures for little kids (away from screens). The house is warm and beautifully recently decorated. Comfortable beds and nice bedding. There is no internet available and therefore no smart TV access (not necessarily a bad thing but notable). Would love to stay again in the summer months.

A north Canterbury oasis

This is a lovely wee cabin in a very pretty forest setting. It's very comfortable and well kitted out. The hosts John and Marion are absolutely charming and very welcoming. Highly recommended.

Beautiful Home

Thanks so much for a lovely stay. We had everything we needed and the property was beautiful. A nice short trip from Christchurch. Loved the pizza oven!

Lovely studio/cottage

A lovely little cottage. Clean, cosy with a few little luxuries. Only issues were - it is advertised as sleeps 5 on book a bach but only has bedding for 4, however the owner happily sorted an airbed. Toilet paper and dishwashing liquid were in short supply, so we bought our own. However, we would still recommend and stay again.
