景观一流,女主人热情周到
位于山顶,风景一流,上山的路窄弯多,初次驾驶右舵车自驾不推荐.
Breakfast was better than you can find anywhere locally. Views are phenomenal, sunset and sunrise. Host is friendly, interesting and easy to communicate with. Steady contact prior to entry and fun chats with staying.
Very comfortable and spacious with incredible views of the countryside and Christchurch. Scrumptiously prepared hot breakfast! Our host was so warm and welcoming, and she provided us with great recommendations for the next stages of our journey.
I would change nothing.
Wonderful B&B, excellent breakfast, delighted host, incredible views- would highly recommend!!
Great view, private, lovely garden
I’m a chicken about driving in mountains and windy roads, but my husband isn’t, so he did all the driving.
The residence was absolutely lovely, and Brenda even more so! The residence was clean, tidy, and had a personal touch. Brenda was very accommodating to my late arrival, and was even more accommodating the following morning by providing breakfast and making me a coffee. Brenda is very lovely to interact with, and gave us plenty of great recommendations for places to visit which added a local touch to it! Brenda's place felt cosy, safe, and home away from home. If the residence and the views don't convince you to book, Brenda's amazing hospitality, friendly and loving character are plenty of reasons to stay at Brenda's place! Thank you Brenda, we hope to be back to visit soon!
Nil. Everything was perfect!
Accueil chaleureux, vue époustouflantes, excellent petit déjeuner avec viennoiseries fraiches... Tout a été parfait et Brenda est une personne très agréable et attentionnée
We had such a beautiful stay. B & Frankie are the most amazing hosts! We arrived as strangers & did not want to leave. Such a gracious, generous host & the extra mile B goes to make the most exceptional breakfast experience is outstanding. Cannot recommend this magical spot & the most amazing human. Till next time ❤️
וילה יפהפה בראש ההר, נוף משגע. קיבלנו חדר יפהפה, נקי, נוח עם מקלחת צמודה וכניסה נפרדת. ברנדה המקסימה, בעלת הבית, אשה חמה ולבבית.
לצערנו, מסיבות אישיות, לא נשארנו כי היינו חייבים לעבור למלון במרכז העיר.
Brenda ist eine liebevolle und aufmerksame Gastgeberin. Ihre positive Ausstrahlung hat unseren Aufenthalt in ihrem wunderschönen Haus zu etwas ganz Besonderem gemacht. Danke für diese zwei Tage!!!
De hartelijkheid en gastvrijheid, het uitzicht, de sfeer, het ontbijt…
Alles beviel uitstekend!
Brenda made us feel at home immediately. She was a font of knowledge on Christchurch and her area. Breakfast was delightful. The view from the house is like looking out from a window in an aeroplane.
Sehr nette und sympathische Gastgeberin. Super Aussicht. Gutes Frühstück.
Man braucht unbedingt ein Auto. Eher wenig Platz fürs Gepäck.
We had a wonderful stay overlooking the estuary and city of Christchurch in modern homely & comfortable accommodation. Brenda is a wonderful host and served us amazing full breakfasts each morning. We can recommend this stay for visitors with their own vehicle as it is a 20 minute drive into the CBD.
Our hostess was delightful! We felt like we were staying with a dear friend. The accommodations were absolutely perfect. In fact we enjoyed it so much that we spent a significant amount of time there instead of going in to Chch to do tourist stuff! There are stunningly beautiful hilltop walks within 5 minutes of the house. We stayed for 3 nights and were very sad to leave. My husband and I both adored Brenda, her dog Frankie, our room, the entire house and the wonderful breakfast and snacks.
It was perfect.
Loved the whole experience and Brenda’s fabulous personality and attention to details! We’d love to come back.
Nothing!
The owner! The view! The property! Loved it all!
Excellent, couldn't be better. Brenda is the best host we ever had. The Hotel is beautiful, fantastic view, very nice rooms, great stay, excellent breakfast with local products. It was a perfect stay.
All good. Nothing negative.
Everything was just perfect: from the greeting when we got there from Brenda and Frankie, to the comfort and luxury of the rooms, and the exceptional breakfast. The views blew us away too.

Absolute perfection in every way. Brenda could not be more gracious and hospitable. Lovely home, gorgeous view, extremely comfortable bed, jaw-dropping view, incredible breakfast ...and I could on and on. Remarkable place, extraordinary host.
Nothing! It was perfectly delightful. About 20 minutes from the city. The drive up the hill was a bit thrilling. Can't think of a thing to improve.
The breakfast was excellent prepared by the host and location and views were fantastic. Brenda and Frankie the black lab were very welcoming a very enjoyable experience. Pat & Bob

Breakfast was outstanding; superb view; wonderful warm welcome from Brenda
Brenda ist die beste Gastgeberin der Welt- selbst die Kaffeetasse wurde angewärmt- frisches Obst und Gemüse waren in allerfeinsten Produkten vorhanden
Gar nichts
Brenda als Host war sehr freundlich, aufgeschlossen und hat unseren Aufenthalt sehr angenehm werden lassen. Die Lage ist absolut fantastisch mit Blick über Queenstown, das Frühstück hervorragend. Die Ausstattung der Zimmer liess ebenfalls wenig Raum für Verbesserungen (vielleicht ein TV)
Wir mussten abreisen.
Tolle Lage mit super Aussicht. Liebevolle und umsichtige Gastgeberin. Alles bestens!

The view was amazing. But the real treat was Brenda and her dog Frank. Such a warm welcome - instant friends. The creativity in the kitchen was fabulous and the facilities were perfect. New Zealand hospitality at its best
Brenda is a born hostess 🥰 Everything about our stay was perfect 😊 Brenda's home is a treasure trove of artefacts, books and paintings. Frankie was a delightful addition too 😉

La maison et le jardin sont très beaux et la vue est spectaculaire
Peut être un peu froid dans la chambre
Mrs. Brenda is an excellent host, she really takes care for her guests. Breakfasts are top, all from the home garden. The whole property has very high standards regarding sustainability. A lot of tips what to do, where to go. Expectations waaay exceeded. Location superb. Close to CC centre or to Sumner beach……
Our stay was absolutely wonderful! · Charming Decor: The house was beautifully decorated throughout. · Cozy Welcome: We arrived on a stormy night to a warm house with a prepared fireplace. · Amazing Breakfast: Enjoyed a delicious spread of homemade food, bakery bread, and a full selection of teas and coffees. · Stunning Views: The sea view from the house was a addup of our stay. · Exceptional Hosts: Our host was amazing, and her friendly Labrador, Frankie, was a joy.
Really great stay. Our host couldn't have been more helpful. Provided a lovely breakfast and gave us space to do our own thing. Was lovely to be able to relax and enjoy the view. Would certainly stay again.
Couldn't have asked for more.
The room was very comfortable and quiet. It was situated high on the side of a hill so the view was amazing. Brenda was extremely helpful and prepared a lovely breakfast each morning.
Wonderful views, excellent breakfast, interesting and charming host. Delightful dog to greet you on arrival
Beautiful accomodation and garden perched high on the hills above the city. We arrived in the evening to spectacular veiws over the city lights, estuary and Cantebury coastline. The bed was very comfortable. The spacious shared living area was very cosy and welcoming including plenty of pats with sweet Frankie the labrador. We felt right at home as soon as we arrived. Brenda the owner of the property was a fabulous hostess and very helpful. Very convenient location for lunch or dinner at either Lyttleton or Sumner. We will definitely stay again when visiting Christchurch.
The host was very friendly, gracious, and helpful. The view from the property was fantastic. The accommodations were very comfortable. The breakfast was delicious. We stayed here our first night in New Zealand after long travels from the east coast of the US. The host made soup which was perfect for us to relax that first night. The stay was a wonderful start to our trip to New Zealand.
The hostess was extremely friendly and attentive, her house was very comfortable (with a fire place), superbly decorated, quiet and with a spectacular view. The breakfast was scrumptious and plentiful.
Nothing - everything was superb!
Wonderful outlook and a perfect host, with a very comfortable and homely environment.
The owner, Brenda, was very friendly and welcomed us into her home. It was very comfortable and she made sure we had everything we needed. We loved the little personal touches of flowers in our room and the choice of teas and coffee. The bed was super comfy. The garden was beautiful with a stunning view of Christchurch and the ocean and we could see Kaikoura in the distance. Breakfast was very good with homemade granola, home grown stewed fruit and homemade jams as well as cooked options. Brenda is a really lovely lady and made us feel very much at home. We also made friends with Frankie her black Labrador.
There was nothing we didn’t like. It was perfect.
Brenda was an extraordinarily host going above and beyond for her guests. The breakfast was made to order and had variety to suit all tastes. The views from the house are exceptional. The bed was very comfortable and all amenities required available.
Amazing stay ❤️ Brenda is so lovely and makes everyone feel so welcome. She provided a gourmet breakfast and she focused on giving guests an incredible experience. The views are outstanding and the whole experience was just fabulous. Can't recommend highly enough. 5 plus stars 🌟

Amazing location, beautiful, comfortable room and guest lounge, Brenda is a wonderful host and provides superb breakfasts.
Brenda is the most welcoming host you can imagine. Her lovely house has amazing views over the city, and she does everything in her power to make you feel like home. The bed is really comfortable and the breakfast is big and healthy. If you love dogs: get ready for cuddling Frankie - the perfect black lab that adores belly rubs.
What a “wow” view!
Nothing whatsoever
View was incredible. One of the best views in the whole region. The host was kind caring and went above and beyond. Very nice lady with such a friendly dog too. Very happy.
Nothing. We liked everything about the stay.
B&B operated by a very nice hostess.
We loved the Birds Eye view of Christchurch & the estuary. Also the lovely flowers & garden. We loved Frankie her Black Lab!
This accommodation clearly shows a picture of a kitchen, we wished to self cater. The day prior to our visit I noticed that the description made no note of a kitchen. I questioned this with Brenda who said ‘The Kitchen is part of the living room,I have put a stop to people using my kitchen, as too many, near accidents’. In addition she said; ‘I see you haven't paid Booking .Com, does that mean you are paying me in cash?’ Because we were self catering and also being asked that we pay by cash which we don’t carry we cancelled. I asked Brenda to waive the 50% cancellation fee because the description was incorrect and that the payment terms have changed. She never replied and I still got charged.
Total rip off, listing was incorrect, Host chose to take a 50% fee.
Everything
Nothing
Fantastic position. Beautifully appointed - a true home from home. Every comfort had been thought of. The use of a sitting room was a great benefit. The views from Bea’s house are something to behold. Freshly cut flowers in the bedroom and bathroom were a lovely touch. Breakfast consisted of fresh fruit from Bea’s garden, homemade granola and jams, and scrambled eggs or freshly made corn fritters. In fact, Bea had thought of everything we might need to make our stay comfortable.
Excellent host and welcoming atmosphere
Lovely and welcoming host Brenda and Frankie Brenda homefurnished the house and garden exceptionally beautiful and thinking to every detail The house is high up in the hills, with a stunning view.
You definitely need to have a car to reach the accomodation or be in good condition to climb the hill
Brenda provided great breakfast options each day, nothing was too much trouble
Nothing except we wished we could have stayed longer
Brenda is an amazing host who makes you feel so welcome and thinks about every little detail, she has a charming and warm personality and will light up your day! The house has a breathtaking view up on the hill.
This was quite simply the best b&b we have ever had the pleasure of staying in. Brenda went above and beyond to meet any conceivable expectation, she is a natural hostess! Brendas' homemade breakfasts were delicious, the flowers in every room just beautiful and the location was superb. Frankie her dog just added to the homely feel. A great end to our visit to New Zealand.
Everything is perfect.
You will be living at Brenda’s house as you stay, sharing the living and dining room. The views and the garden are stunning and the house is beautifully and tastefully decorated. Brenda is a fantastic host (a one-off 😉), very welcoming and helpful. Welcoming and entertaining people is just natural for her. The homy feeling will get to you. Franckie, her Labrador, makes the feeling even stronger. The rooms are perfect. The quality of the bedding is lovely and comfortable. And there will always be a little fresh flower somewhere to enhance the experience . Don’t miss Breakfast, it is majestic!
Brenda was such a lovely host and went out of her way to accommodate us and made sure we were comfortable. The views of the sea were breathtaking from her property.
Can’t fault anything
This stay completed my travel! Brenda is so nice and happy to introduce everything here, from the mountains to the restaurants. It helped me feel the local culture and life style, let alone the beautiful landscape including mountains, ocean and cities.
Everything is so good.
The best bnb ever - stay here if you possibly can. This is an amazing place, very unique with eclectic collection of qualuty furnishings that just works incredibly well. The host is a 'people person' and an absolute joy. The old saying 'arrive as strangers leave as friends' is true here. Additionally everything a traveller could possibly need (and more) has been provided. The views are absolutely outstanding, and it is nice to be overlooking Christchurch to have the city on your doorstep, but to stay in a quality place and location away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Frankie, the dog, is very sweet and very undemanding and placid.
Nothing-the stay was perfect, wish we had more than 3 nights.
Brenda was exceptional. She not only made us breakfast as per the property description but also assisted us in get to and from the property. The property itself is spectacular and the views are amazing also. I could not recommend this place enough.
Nothing.
Views amazing, Brenda so welcoming and loved the dog Frankie. This place was not just about the accommodation it was the experience that went with it. I will be staying here every time I come to Christchurch!
Nothing
The view is amazing. The house is filled with flowers, books and art. It’s so gorgeous! Oh, and there’s a black lab named Frankie! Brenda was the best host you could ever ask for (especially after the yucky farm stay we’d stayed the night before). In fact, when we pulled up here we thought it must be a scam as this place is spectacular! Breakfast was so delicious and I don’t normally eat breakfast.
Not a thing
We thoroughly enjoyed everything about the property and the host, Brenda, was wonderful! We arrived relatively late and had out choice of two rooms, which were shown to us by Brenda. Both rooms were clean and wonderfully appointed, with cozy blankets and beautiful towels in the bathroom. We loved the cozy nature of the shared spaces and being welcomed into the property with such warmth. The only surprise was the dog, which for those who are not comfortable could be an issue, but we loved the homeliness it added to the property. We were offered many different recommendations for the area of Christchurch, including food and sights, all of which helped us during our stay. Our breakfast was also delightful, many locally-sourced ingredients for jams, fruit on cereals and the eggs were prepared extremely well, all enjoyed with a spectacular view. We had a wonderful time staying with Brenda, and we will certainly stay again when we are in the region.
The location being on a hill is best accessible with car access, which could be a negating feature for some, however that adds to the charm of the location. If you are not comfortable with dogs and the associated hair, then make sure that you communicate this as it wasn't clear in the description of the property, however does show that it is someone's home being shared.
Location, great host
Nothing to dislike but a car is needed to get there
Brenda gave us a very warm welcome with something to drink. Which was nice after our journey. She gave us several suggestions for restaurants and things to do in and around Christchurch. Our room and the breakfasts were very good. If possible, we will come back.
It was to short.
Brenda's place is like a peaceful paradise. The views are to die for. The rooms are a good size and the bed is very comfortable. But those things are only a portion of whats so special about this accommodation. Brenda's care and personal touches make you feel very pampered. Her breakfast is put together with so much love and care, with beautiful home made preserves, cereals, custard, yogurt and fresh bread. Her beautiful home is full of surprises that treat all of the senses. We would love to come back some day.
NA.
We had an absolutely perfect stay there. Such a beautifull view, a great host, delicious breakfast, beautifull and clean room… Perfect to discover Christchurch. Thanks a lot for the lovely time:)
Hostess Brenda was lovely and welcoming. Very funny, great to talk with. It is lovely of her to open up her home and welcome travellers in. Very knowledgeable. Views from her property were stunning 😍 Bed was very comfortable, room was quite spacious Very clean.
Location was high enough up the hill to provide a superb panoramic view
N/a
Stunning views, very comfortable rooms and we were made to feel really at home. Breakfasts were delightful. I’d highly recommend staying here.
Nothing - it’s perfect. You do need a car. It is a short drive to the coast and 20 mins to downtown Christchurch. Uber worked a treat when we ventured out in the evenings.
Everything. Amazing time and Brenda was the perfect host who gave a warm greeting. Advised us on things to do which proved perfect. Food was lovely . Accommodation and views superb. Thanks to you Brenda for making our stay so memorable. Frankie was good fun what a lovely Labrador.

Super stylish and mega-comfortable abode with exceptional, welcoming host, sensational views and wonderful laid back labrador.
