We stayed in pyror haven lodge for two weeks mid July with our two year old and our almost three month old. This is a great accommodation. It is a super location within walking distance of town through Hagley park. There are lots of other nice walks close by too. Merivale shops are only a stroll away for anything you might need or cafes and bars. Although so close to everything you do feel like you have a lot of privacy in this house. It is surrounded by trees and greenery which would fool you into thinking you are more rural. There is off street parking. The house is full to the brim with everything you could need including a kitchen even with an airfryer. The shower is great. Having a washing machine and dryer is very handy with little ones too. Although visiting in winter the house felt warm with various options to keep the cold at bay including electric blankets on the bed. There is a large television in the living area with a large amount of channels although we didn't get to explore beyond the children's channels much. There are lots of extra blankets, sheets, towels, tea towels available along with kitchen basics like oils, salt, pepper etc. Tim is an excellent host who has a lot of knowledge about the neighbourhood and is really responsive to any questions or requests. He was very helpful with offers to make the house as baby and child friendly as possible.
We would recommend this accommodation to people staying in Christchurch.
