Book a Balcairn Cottage

"An amazing get away from the city with my partner "

"What a wonderful place. Surrounded by nature and close to town. Thank you for sharing this amazing place with us. We loved the fresh eggs too A must for any coming to Christchurch!"

"Simple, functional space in a quiet reserved farming area. The cottage had everything we needed, and it was just a short drive to Rangiora. David brought us fresh-baked bread, which was fantastic. We ran into some unexpected health issues and David was extraordinarily kind and helpful."

"Three nights, in spring school holidays, at this unique, excellently-equipped cottage, effectively resets the mind into calm. It's only a short drive from Rangiora. You are spoiled with scenic views of incredible gardens, rolling paddocks dotted with sheep, and brooding mountains in the distance. There is total privacy, really comfortable beds, and a warming fire in the fireplace for the evenings. The owners are unintrusive, respectful and very obliging. Lyddington is a must-visit .... I was sad...

"Great place to stay while attending a clinic at Scott O'Malley horsemanship, which was based 10 minutes away. Great facilities thank you!"
