Staying at an accommodation like this is what Airbnb is all about.
Kevin, his wife Deborah, & their Dog Buster were all impeccable hosts. So warm and welcoming. We enjoyed the opportunity to get to know them and learn a lot more about Christchurch and NZ as a whole.
Their location is peaceful and quiet part of town about 7/8 min walk from the cities main park. I could not recommend staying at their place enough.
