Joke's place was just what you see in the photos. a fantastic view, a beautiful little cottage style home, a great little kitchen with essentials and most importantly a million dollar view from the kitchen too. we sat outside on the deck and enjoyed a cup of coffee everyday to the sounds of birds chirping, bees buzzing and of course the view.
Joke's home is only a few minutes walk to the beautiful Lyttelton town, with some quirky cafe's, a grocery store, a pharmacy, and lots more. the ferry terminal that takes off to Diamond harbour and quile lsland is also in Lyttleton town so its a very convenient place.
Joke's garden was full of beautiful blooms and lots of different types of herbs, Joke was very kind to let us use whatever grows in her garden. we had the best fresh herbal teas.
Joke gave us some tips on a few local walks, the weather and what to do around the area and beyond.
the cottage is situated in a convenient spot, so getting around was easy. Joke is a very friendly and warm host. can't reccomend this place enough!
