Great venue for extended family
This property was great for location, close to everything. The bedding configurations allow for large families. The communication between the property manager and myself was excellent. Although the property is near the road there is a fenced back yard which would make it suitable for young children. I booked this for family visiting from the North and it could not have been more suitable.

Linwood
This was the most comfortable home we stayed in while we were in New Zealand. 4 spacious bedrooms, plenty of pillows, a good main bathroom, ensuite and extra toilet, a drying rack for clothes. We arrived to find the home with air conditioning already running and it was available everywhere if required. Tastefully decorated. There was a small issue with a door handle and a small issue with Netflix both which was rectified immediately. It was good to have a welcome document and although it was reasonable it seemed a bit demanding. Just be aware that apart from a few takeaways within walking distance it was necessary to drive everywhere. If we return to Christchurch we would definitely hope to stay there again.

Great house
Aweosme spacious house with lots of room for the 9 of us (5 children & 4 adults). We arrived at midnight and it was so nice to open the pantry and find some tea and coffee so we could make ourselves a cup of tea after a big day travelling. House was warm and beds super comfy! Check in and contact with the owner was so easy. Thanks 😊

Linwood stay
The house is very clean and comfortable with large kitchen and living area. Plenty of heating and xtra rugs during the brief cold snap while we were there and stayed cool when temperatures rose. Only a short walk to small group of shops with great Thai and Indian Restaurants. Bakery looked pretty good too. Would definitely stay there again.

Great family setup
I was totally amazed at the size of the rooms and the amenities... great beds and bedding (2 sets of bunkbeds in one room had my 3 year old granddaughter so excited she couldnt choose), lots of towels and decorating, kitchen incredibly well equipped, all appliances new and functional, black out blinds (helpful for my canada to new zealand time/date change transition), large backyard with deck/barbq, lots of parking, tv with good shows and wifi tjat works! Busy street and mixed neighbourhood but no problems for me out walking every day. I would rent again.

The property was clean and nice layout. Funnily we did get a hard time from locals about the suburb we were staying in but we found it fine and had no trouble.

Short stay
Suited our family group and having 3 bathrooms was a real plus. House was well equipped except it would be great to have access to an iron and ironing board.

Awesome home, great for families
This house is awesome. Very comfortable, warm and spacious. More than enough room for our 2 families of 5. Good fenced outdoor area, and having 3 bathrooms was excellent. The property is quiet and private. The bedrooms are all large, and the beds are really comfy. The owner is terrific to deal with, responds quickly to messages and checked in with us to make sure everything was okay. We would definitely stay here again.

Great memories made
We loved our stay, great property for a weekend getaway with friends. Our only complaints were communication on what beds would need to be made up (but we made it work) and there was no tea towels or oven mitts to cook and tidy up as we had a lunch at the property. There is no full length mirror in the house which would be a lovely added bonus. It had great showers, a variety of bed hardness (to cater to every fussy friend) and the amazing light switch in one of the bedrooms - it was the best talking point of the house. Enough space for everyone when it’s wet outside! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Nice tidy place with lots of space to relax
There were 7 of us. The house has a great layout, after a big day out, the open planned living gives you lots of space to relax by yourself but still feel connected to the group or lots of room to come together, chill out and have a good laugh. We loved staying at this house.

Weekend families breakaway
Excellent property for family, didn't feel on tenderhooks at all with having 5 kids in tow, even some toys supplied :). Great place and location for us. Presuming as owners get more established a few repairs/alterations will be made as deck(s), floor (tacks) and shower need some attention. Would definitely go back again. Thank you. Also apologies the curtain came off the rail and couldn't get it back up.

Perfect family house
The whole process couldn't have been easier. Our family came up from Timaru and we came down from Palmerston North. The 3 boys were very impressed with the games that were available, and one grandson brought his music with him to play the (out of tune) piano. The beds were comfortable and it was a great place for the 7 of us to stay. Next time would like to make it longer.
