Reviewed Mar 21, 2026The location was perfect for us as we were driving back to Christchurch the next morning and this location gave us a head start after we had completed the Dunstan Roxburgh cycle trail. It is located off the main road and was quiet and secluded. The Chalet had all the facilities for an overnight stay but was also close to a nice restaraunt a small distance away.
The living and main bedroom were up steep narrow stairs which took a bit of navagating and may not suit everybody but wasnt a problem for us.

Reviewed Feb 26, 2026Lovely older house with plenty of character. Very clean and spacious. We met the lovely hosts on arrival who gave us a guided tour and a short history lesson about the house. A wonderful continental breakfast was supplied with bread, muffins, milk, juice, yoghurt, jams and fruit. Location was on the main highway.
The rear of the house was occupied by students with a locked door marked private in between. Even so, they were quite noisy and it was awkward when they would walk past our windows to get to their lodgings. Couldn't located the remote control for the loungeroom air conditioner/heater.

Reviewed Sep 14, 2025This was one of the cutest places we have stayed! It sleeps 6 but the beds are spread out so everyone feels like they have their own sleeping space. The breakfast was plentiful, loved the homemade jam, biscuits with afternoon tea. Very private. Some others have commented on road noise but you have to strain your ears pretty hard to hear any traffic! It did take a little while to heat up with the heat pump but once there it was fine overnight. Very good value for what we paid.
