Jo's place is a beautiful home and garden located near most anything you'll want to do in Christchurch. It's easy to see why the garden is "award winning" and quite special - there's even a natural creek with endangered eels that goes through the property! The house is brand new, modern, chic.
You will be sharing a bathroom with any occupants of the other two guest rooms, so keep that in mind if that's an issue. The room was a bit hot during warm summer days, and mozzies (mosquitoes) came in if one let the door/window open.
Jo is a strong character, with many stories and history to share; she even wrote a book about growing up in the country.
