Laneside cottage is a perfectly private retreat. Surrounded by bush, a wonderful view, the warmth of a fire and luxurious spa bath make this a very comfortable and inviting getaway. A walk or drive to Akaroa provides some other options. We loved relaxing in the well equipped cottage as well as exploring the locality and a meal at The Duvauchelle Hotel is recommended. Bizz is a great host, quick and warm in her communications and clear with directions. There are lots of thoughtful holiday provisions. We have made a great discovery finding Laneside Cottage.
