Blythcliffe is a beautiful historic home with peaceful surrounds and views. Here you will feel both relaxed and immersed in precious history. At the time of our visit there were many fragrant roses in bloom and from the upstairs sitting room and veranda we could admire the lawn and garden with a view to the sea. We were treated to a most generous and elegant breakfast, the loveliest of linen and towels, and our host was happy to share knowledge and history of Blythcliffe and Akaroa. We loved our stay - thank you John and Lesley!
