This charming town offers a perfect base for exploring the Waimakariri River trails and browsing local artisan shops. Visit the farmers' market on Saturdays for fresh Canterbury produce, or head to nearby Pegasus Bay for coastal walks.
Such a beautiful location! The views are lovely, and the place was clean, nicely decorated, and very comfortable.
The only recommendation we would have is to add curtains in the lounge area to block out the strong afternoon sun. We tried to enjoy a family movie with the kids in the afternoon, but unfortunately the sun was so bright that we couldn’t see the screen at all.
Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay and thought the place was lovely!

Excellent accomodation except for that the cupboard in the bedroom needs more shelving or drawers to be of any use and make your stay properly comfortable.
