Beautiful Cass Bay
Welcoming hosts, quick response to email enquiry via contact host service. Lovely bathroom. Short distance from the shore and a short walk to some lovely swimming beaches.

A gem of a place
A gorgeous place to stay. Warm, clean, modern, and stylishly decorated. Lovely breakfast provided too. Very handy to Lyttleton and an easy drive into Christchurch city. Will definitely stay again next time we're in the area.
