An outstanding stay in beautiful accommodation. We stayed in the summer house, which even in NZ autumn was warm and cosy. Anne was an excellent and welcoming host, bringing us cake to go with our tea on arrival. The summer house was a beautiful place to stay, perfect for a romantic night away. Tea, coffee and hot chocolate were on offer in the neat an well provided hideaway kitchen. There was also television, a heater, an excellent hot and powerful shower and a beautiful garden, all a five minute walk from the centre of Akaroa. It was perfect!
