Awesome off grid getaway with spectacular views of NZ bush. The house has an amazing fire that kept us warm the entire stay. The host Tanya is a lovely person and very easy to deal with. If your looking for an off grid getaway that's not to far away from Christchurch I highly recommended this lovely home. Thank you Tanya I guarantee I'll be back again.
