We've stayed 5 days at Leave of Absence and enjoyed it greatly!
After a very long flight and arriving from a warm weather to a very cold day in Christchurch we were relieved that the check-in could be very early (at 10:30!).
The house is very large and well organized, there's a nice and well equipped kitchen and a large living room, the bedrooms have good size and the beds were good and comfy and there's a huge back yard.
