Only 15 minute walk to CBD from this excellent cottage
We spent two nights in this excellent two bedroom cottage 15 minutes walk from Chch CBD. The cottage is spacious with separate dining and lounge areas which were very warm and comfortablewith elegant decor. The bedrooms were also spacious and comfortable. The well equipped galley kitchen provided everything we needed to self cater. Danielle is a very professional host and her communication about the property was timely and comprehensive. As with Danielle’s other property near Akaroa (Maison du Campagne in French Farm), at which we also stayed, we cannot fault this excellent accommodation and will happily stay here again when we are next in Chch. We have no hesitation in recommending the cottage to anyone seeking quality accommodationnear the CBD

Ritsy on Fitzgerald
The house is beautiful, warm, well catered for, secure and a fantastic place to stay so would highly recommend. A 10 minute easy walk into the city centre. Communication with the owners was spot on and prompt. Would definitely book again when visiting Christchurch.

Oasis in the city
Fitzgerald Cottage was quite comfortable, and provided everything we needed during our stay. The only difficulty was figuring out how to run the dishwasher. The garden in the back had many trees and birds, and felt very peaceful.

Cat issues
The house and garden have been done nice. The main issue is the strong smell of cat urine that hits you as you enter the property. It is especially strong at the back door and deck area.

Danielle’s beautifully appointed cottage is the ideal place to stay in Christchurch. The cottage facilities are excellent and there are some lovely added touches to make guests feel at home. The garden is beautiful and the perfect place to relax after a day of sightseeing. The property is very close to the city and a stone’s throw away from the delightful Pom’s Cafe. Highly recommended!

The Wow Factor
An amazing experience, what a beautiful home, so much detail put into every room. The garden was fabulous with lots of hidden corners to sit in. Very relaxing to listen to the water feature and the outdoor chess set completed the grounds. A beautiful place to seat out in the evening. The secured off street parking was an extra bonus.

September 2023
It is a lovely property in a good location with a bus stop outside, off-street parking and easy access to Christchurch amenities. My Wife and I stayed here with our two children (10 and 2) in September 2023. A cot bed and high chair were provided. The property was clean, with a well-equipped kitchen. I would recommend the house for anyone considering visiting Christchurch. If staying with young children, just be aware there are a lot of ornaments in the house, so we were constantly on our guard to ensure our two-year-old didn't touch or break anything.

The perfect spot to stay in Christchurch
This was the second stay for us and once again it was a great one. The house is warm and comfortable and has everything needed. Parking is secure inside a locked gate. It is close enough to walk to the CBD and there is an excellent spot for breakfast only a block away ( Little Pom's ). The hosts are friendly and responsive. A small problem with hot water got a fast response and fix. This is our go-to holiday rental in Christchurch.

Wonderful cosy cottage.
Fantastic stay. The house is equipped with everything you need and more. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable beds. Lovely private verandah to sit outside. A couple of minutes walk to a great cafe and English style pub. We walked to central Christchurch everyday with the option of walking along the river which is very scenic and relaxed. You could also get a bus just outside the property if you didn’t have a car. Highly recommended for couples or small groups of friends. Thank you Danielle for allowing us to enjoy your wonderful home!
