About the area

Christchurch

Located in Mairehau, a neighbourhood in Christchurch, this holiday home is next to a golf course and by the sea. While the natural beauty of Hagley Park and Sumner Beach can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can explore Lyttelton Harbour. Travelling with kids? Consider The Piano: Centre for Music and the Arts and Margaret Mahy Playground. Swimming offers a great chance to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with ecotours and horse riding nearby.

Cute cottage in an awesome location

Great place to stay, very clean, really well set with amenities like great cooking facilities and we appreciated the little touches like body wash. Having a washing machine and dishwasher was also handy. We loved the fire and the extra blankets as it was very cold weather in Christchurch whilst there. Highly recommend to families (we are family of 5). Would stay again!

Warm, cozy well equipped home

We enjoyed the well equipped kitchen and bbq for cooking. The fireplace and heatpump made it warm and cozy. The beds were comfy. The table was large enough for us to enjoy meals together. Good central location. Lovely touches like milk, hot water bottles, chocolates, and fire ready to light. The prompt communication made for an easy stay. We relaxed and enjoyed our time in the cozy well designed home. Look forward to coming in summer to enjoy the garden and out door areas.
