Penn’s Retreat is a fabulous place to stay in Christchurch. The location is close to town, has a mall (with supermarket) within a minutes walk, and bars and restaurants nearby, all too in walking distance.
The apartment is fabulous with two good size bedrooms, a lounge, bathroom, laundry, and a well equipped kitchen with dining table. The outside space was small but wonderful, complete with table and chairs. There is also a separate area with a washing line.
The apartment was clean and tidy and presented in very good decorative order.
Penny is just the loveliest host - friendly and helpful, and always available for recommendations should you require them. Her communication was excellent - prompt and friendly. I would highly recommend Penn’s Retreat as a place to stay in Christchurch!!
