Fantastic stay

We had a fantastic stay - a cosy house even when the weather was wet. The log fire was great at keeping the place warm. Plenty of space, quiet and lovely birdsong to wake us up. Close to the Main Street, so easy walking to the shops and cafes (highly recommend the Running Duck for food). We will definitely be staying again!

Good location.

Great little house close to town. Only knock was the cleanliness with a large list of jobs expected from the owner before leaving, such as vacuuming, washing tea towels etc, which showed.

Hi Nathan So glad you enjoyed the house and especially the proximity to town. We have taken on board your comment re cleaning requirements for guests and simplified the instructions so it isn’t so arduous. We always have a cleaner come in between guests as we like to keep the cleanliness at a high standard.

We loved basing ourselves in charming Geraldine while our daughter umpired at a hockey tournament in Timaru. The house was quiet, warm and perfect walking distance to town for coffee and breakfast at Barkers. Recommend.

Perfect base in Geraldine

We have stayed at Kay's bach before and it was just as great this time. So much to do in the area and this is the perfect base to do so. It is a quintessential kiwi bach - warm, comfortable, unpretentious and very relaxing. Only a couple of blocks to town, cafes, market etc. Definitely recommend. I am sure we will be back. Thanks.

Perfect base for hiking in Peel Forest

As a group of hikers we enjoyed the location, so close to many great hikings. We also enjoyed the heated pools in Geraldine, the fantastic cinema with big confy seats and in the way back we went to the Staveley ice rink and Methven hot pools. A fantastic weekend. The house itself is spacious, warm and has everything snd more you might need. The host looks after every little detail to make sure you have a nice stay, and communication was great. 10/10

Geraldine's Hidden Treasure

This centrally located, clean, well appointed cottage is loaded with understated charm and accommodations to very comfortable living. Pared with the fascinating history of the property, the cottage itself and its expansive & private back yard, you ate left wanting nothing. Its an ideal location to base your explorations of the Cantebury region. I recommend this property to both shodt and longer-term travellers. Kay, a gem herself, is helpful and quick to resoond. You won't be disappointed.
