“Great breakfast”

Clean and private

Real charm to the accommodation, and warm welcome from the hosts and their beautiful 4 legged family members

Comfy, spacious room and fabulous breakfast. Julie and Barry (and their dogs) made us feel very welcome and we felt we got to know them in the short time we spent in Christchurch. Getting up to date with laundry, which Julie organised, was really appreciated. Also Barry kindly lent us a phone charger as we had left ours in the previous accommodation. The journey to their house is about 30 minutes from the city by car but the ferry and bus journey into the city is a lovely way to get a perspective of how beautiful the location of Christchurch actually is. Would highly recommend staying here.

“Luxurious spot to land.”

Beautifully decorated. Well organized. Lovely outdoor areas to sit. Gorgeous having breakfast in the garden. Julie pampers and nutures...a lovely stay in her home. The bath was such a treat...
