This upstairs self-contained loft is a haven for relaxation, providing everything you need for a delightful stay.
While it's the perfect romantic retreat for couples, the loft can comfortably accommodate up to four people. The vibrant and cheerful interior features a full queen-size bed, two single beds, a lounge, dining area, and a well-equipped kitchen, complemented by a spacious modern bathroom.
Step outside to find a table and seating for six, along with a BBQ and petanque pitch, creating a welcoming space for outdoor enjoyment.
Convenient parking is available directly outside the vineyard loft, and access is provided via a set of external stairs. To enhance the experience, guests can indulge in wine tasting at the Cellar Door (times vary depending on the time of year).
For those eager to explore, the charming tourist town of Akaroa is just 20 minutes away, offering a myriad of attractions and activities. Whether seeking a romantic escape or a fun-filled getaway, French Peak Loft promises a memorable and rejuvenating experience.
Whether you stay with us or simply come in to taste French Peak wine at our Cellar Door, you are very welcome to spend time in our gardens, either relaxing beside the pond or going through our forest area (with rare, local ferns). You will be able to listen to all of the birds (and might even meet our local pheasant and her family), enjoy the beautiful panoramic mountain and sea views or even play a game of pétanque! Please note that the dishwasher and washing machine are located outside (back) of the property.
Please note that there are ponds at French Peak and so the accommodation might not be suitable for very young children.
Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.

We highly recommend staying at this property. The staff are fantastic. The surroundings peaceful. The accommodation very reminiscent of Europe and extremely comfortable. We couldn’t have picked a more perfect place to take a break. And a special mention for Kumara who took the time to make us feel welcome!
