Lincoln Country Dream

Fabulous quiet rural retreat

The place was clean and tidy and the hosts were super nice. Loved being in the country. Well equipped.

Could possibly have an upgrade to a heat pump for heating... otherwise the little fan heater is not really efficient. It kept the place warm though.

Very comfortable spacious homely accommodation.

There are no features that I disliked.

The Fletchers, their property, facilities & services provided my wife and I with an excellent overnight stay. More's the pity that it was just for the single day/night but, and you can see where I am coming from, it's unlikely to be our last time there. We occupied a separate guest part of the house that was at one end of the main building/attached garage. We had a single large bedroom cum living room and bathroom/toilet available with a compact 'stock room' (for want of a better word) in between. You walked from the one to the other through the stock room, through two doors. Easy. In the stock room there were shelves of kitchen equipment, plates, utensils, etc. with sufficient space to enable you to prepare basic foods for breakfast, for example, or to dine on a takeaway meal that you had purchased from Lincoln Town 2-3 km from the property. Any further away and your takeaway food would have become cold when returning. There was plentiful food available for a conventional breakfast. The stock room also contained bathroom supplies. You'd probably need a torch to move from the bedroom to the bathroom/toilet during the middle of the night - rather than putting the lights on (and waking yourself and partner). The place was warm and comfortable. The entrance door is at the rear of the house over-looking an enormous garden. There's a covered veranda along the length of the house with the entrance door at the far end - under cover. Outside, under cover and adjacent to the door there was space/furniture to sit and/or enjoy your breakfast and/or simply enjoy a glass of 'something white, cold & tasty' overlooking the lawn in the evening. At the far end of the lawn and behind the trees you could see cattle walking/grazing. The place is of the order 2 km from the Lincoln-Prebbleton Road via Days Road and a short hard seal road across open land/between adjacent paddocks.

Nothing comes immediately to mind. Lincoln Township nearby provides supermarket, hotel/pub and a selection of takeaway and dine-in restaurants/cafes. You'd probably need to plan/purchase ahead for dining in and/or breakfast before arriving.

Nice rural location, quiet and peaceful

环境非常优美，干净卫生，床很舒适。

Quiet comfortable

Hard to find if you rely on GPS/google etc. it may lead you astray! Find the road and look for the property number:-)

Top Lage und geniales Bett und extrem ruhige Lage

Well appointed spacious room, quiet location, hosts were lovely, cats were friendly too 😁

No negative feedback 😊

Lovely, quiet, peaceful location, yet still near the town of Lincoln. You can easily biff into town for dinner, market, etc. Jo & David are very nice and the room is large, comfortable with lovely garden views.

N/A - Everything was great.

环境优美，有很大一片精心打理的草坪，院子里鲜花盛开，很安静。猫猫狗狗都很热情

如果需要做饭的朋友，可能需要注意。没有厨房，只有微波炉、多士炉。避免买一堆食材过来，却尴尬地愣在原地。也没有早餐提供，请做好心理准备

Lovely base for our travels very close to Lincoln for restaurants.

De rustige landelijke (en toch redelijk centrale) ligging op een paar minuten rijden vanaf het stadje Lincoln. Het huis heeft een mooie grote tuin. Ideaal om een paar dagen bij te komen van een lange vliegreis, of om een uitstapje naar Christchurch en omgeving te maken. Binnen een half uurtje ben je op CHC airport of in Christchurch centrum.

Very nice and value for money.

Location beautiful and relaxing

This accommodation was excellent. The room, which included a lovely bedroom with a beautiful view onto the garden and a bathroom, was spotless, spacious and extremely comfortable. Everything was provided for our use. We enjoyed having a relaxing place to stay on our last day of our holiday with close proximity to Christchurch airport. Two bouncy and gorgeous pups and a beautiful cat made us feel very welcome as did Jo.

Location to where we had to be.

Location was central to town and peaceful

Loved the location - very quiet, facing north, farm views. Great bed - very large and comfortable. Big shower - heated towel rail. No issues with parking. Place to put e-bikes under veranda. Good heating facilities.

Surprised to see no sink in kitchen/facilities to wash dishes. However, owners put dishes in their dishwasher.

Jo and David were amazing hosts! The bed was soo comfy and room was equiped with everything we needed. What made our stay even better was being greeted by ‘poppy’ the resident cat.

Everything

Google can be very confused as to how to find the address. We were on a cycling holiday, so this was very annoying, and we spent quite a lot of time and extra mileage locating it. Our advice is to keep watching the letterbox numbers rather than Google as you go down the road. We learned that other guests had the same problem. There are no food options - Lincoln eateries are close, about 4kms away.

Private room? Lovely and Quiet Lovely host (Also friendly dog and cats ) Clean space Thoughtful extras , milk and biscuits

Very friendly host. We received a warm welcome after our long journey from the UK. The room was a good size and the bed was very comfortable. Beautiful garden and outside seating area to enjoy. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Some work surface to food prep, even for making a sandwich, would have been nice.

Highly recommend very accommodating hosts

Beautiful apartment in a wonderful rural location. Hosts were exceptional.

Beautiful quite location a midst farms and wonderful garden . Great location close to Christchurch, the airport, Lincoln 5 minutes away. Great place to get away from the rush of big cities

Quiet and has beautiful garden. Can see the sheep just over the wire fence. Good space for parking. Not far from Lincoln Town. The host kindly allowed us to check in one hour earlier and took us to the room and brief instructions. Spacious room and bed. The kitchen has all the basic stuff, very thoughtful.

No cooking facilities.

The location was lovely and peaceful. Set on a rural property on minutes from Lincoln township and a close to the university. It has gorgeous gardens . The unit we stayed in was private, spacious , beautifully decorated, impeccably clean and tidy. Tastefully decorated to good quality furniture. David was helpful and friendly. We found this property great value. Thank you for a great experience. We will definitely be recommending this hidden gem to friends/family who visit the area.

Easy access and private

Our suite was spacious with a very comfortable bed and 2 comfortable chairs with footstools. There was plenty of space for a dining table as well. The outlook onto the garden was lovely, and we enjoyed the quiet country setting, complete with a friendly dog and cat. It was a quick drive into Lincoln for dinner.

Felt like home away from home, lots of special little touches,

We stayed four nights and wanted a location away from the city so we could do day tours on our electric tandem. Country Dream fitted the bill as well as being reasonably handy to the motorway into the city. The kitchen, with the loan of an electric frying pan, allowed us to cook our own breakfast and dinners.

Perfect stay Thank you

Have stayed here before - an excellent place to stay

Quiet and relax stay close to sheep and cows. Room is spacious

Friendly hosts. Quiet location. Nice spacious room and facilities. Lovely garden and outside space. Good local restaurants.

You need a car to get into the local town.

Very peaceful and quite

Quiet peaceful and good bed

The suite was so nice - clean and tiny, on a serene farm land, looking out to the pasture and sheep! David and Jo were friendly and accommodating. David even gave us a ride to the Lincoln township. Fantastic host overall!

It’s best you have a car so it’s easier to commute to other locations in and around Christchurch, because we couldn’t book an Uber to pick up from the property location.

well presented and peaceful appreciated having the dishes washed

nothing

Owners are very friendly and the cats and dog too. They helped us with finding an after hours clinic since I injured my foot. Thank you for that! The room is big and has everything you need. Bed is very comfortable and loved the heating pads in the bed.

One of the most positive things can be negative depending on what you're looking for. You will need a car to get there. But the quietness you get in return is just awesome! Slept like a baby.

Hosts very friendly & accommodating, peaceful & relaxing, good facilities

A sign on the roadside would have helped

Beautiful stay, excellent hosts and facilities were great. Comfortable bed with heated bedsheets. Close to Christchurch if you have a car.

Wish we had more time in our trip to stay longer.

Well set out room, bathroom was excellent. Very comfortable bed. Hosts very friendly as were their cats and dog. Lovely setting.

Only nit pick was the wifi was very week in the room . Ok for google searches but not much more.

Quiet privacy.

Chair in the bathroom to put clothes on would be appreciated.

Quiet and peaceful. Perfect

Luxurious. Loved being in the country. Everything was just lovely. Advise having own transport as away from public transport.

There was nothing that I didnt like.

Wonderful place to stay. We arrived in the dark and found it without any problem, then awoke to a beautiful garden view. The room was very comfortable and we enjoyed the continental breakfast in the room.
