Grant's Parkside Studio was the perfect place to stay for our short break in Christchurch. The studio is spacious and light with large sliding doors out to a delightful courtyard and the pool (sadly not summery enough just yet to make use of this). The bathroom is also spacious with a lovely tiled high-pressure shower and underfloor heating. The kitchenette behind sliding doors is sufficient for a short stay. We were enjoying some eating out in Christchurch so didn't really need full cooking facilities. Best of all is the location. There is car parking on site, but you could happily leave your car and walk to most of the city's sights and eateries. Communication was prompt and Grant is a friendly host.
