Cosy but dark
Very comfortable cottage studio but very dark because of all the trees around it. We had to have the lights on all the time. Very friendly and helpful hosts

The couple running this property is fantastic - they will bend over backwards to make your stay enjoyable. I would recommend staying here. It is walking distance to many restaurants and even a grocery store. This will definitely be my first choice for all future trips to Christchurch.
