A classic cottage with all the mod cons, Woodside is equipped with USB and wireless charging points. Beautifully decorated, this studio-style cottage is thoughtfully furnished to offer both comfort and convenience, perfect for those moments when you just want to snuggle up on the couch and watch your favourite show on the Smart TV. On a winter getaway, light the wood-burning fireplace for extra cozy ambiance.
Lay out a charcuterie board with some of the fresh Akaroa smoked salmon you picked up in town, then make the most of the seamless indoor-outdoor flow through the French doors onto the deck. Here, a gorgeous backdrop makes raising a glass to being on holiday even better, then later fire up the BBQ for a delicious dinner as the sun goes down.
You're sure to get a good night's rest in the luxurious king-size bed here at Woodside. A generous bathroom, complete with a two-person spa bath, completes the setup for your romantic Akaroa retreat.
