Beautiful very spacious very large living and bedrooms. We slept like a baby and it was a self sufficient stay with a proper kitchen, milk stocked, coffee etc. etc. The TV were a bit outdated as they weren't connected to the Internet which could have been better but overall, fantastic property and a great overnight stayer if you are heading to Christchurch to catch a plane or have arrived in the evening at Christchurch and are heading to an alpine retreat

Stayed overnight and it was wonderful. Jenny & Ken were so welcoming and friendly offering us great choices for dining in town. Our room was lovely & airy with fantastic views of the garden area. Two beautiful cats and a dog made it so homely. The amenities in our room were great and very clean and the scrumptious cooked breakfast served up by Ken topped our stay there. Highly recommend +++

Great location with good parking. Easy walk into the township. Clean & quiet property. Comfy bed. Basic amenities but lovely tea, coffee & hot chocolate. Have stayed multiple times & would definitely stay again.

What a charming place! This place was more than I hoped. Beautiful styled while allowing for comfort. The surrounds are stunning and the home is delightful. I will be recommending this to friends who need a relaxing stop to recharge. We didn’t want to leave!!
