This place is fantastic. Very appealing accommodation and facilities surrounded by the most wonderful garden, a small brook and the native forest with tuis and bellbirds singing. An absolute must-stay in Akaroa. Only a few minutes walking to downtown centre. Jos and Stew are very friendly and great hosts. Be sure to go on a boat trip to see dolphins, penguins and fur seals. – Akaroa is the place to settle if one should have the choice !!
