We choose Accrington for the rural heritage experience which did not disappoint. The warm cosy child friendly farmhouse was big enough for family hide and seeks aswell as educational for our children which enjoyed ringing a bell before meal times and long nights in front of the fire playing games. (They didn’t even notice the TV in the cabinet!) We were also lucky enough to have a tour of the woolshed provided by Hamish and Annabel. There’s plenty to do here with numerous walks and secluded beaches – Akaroa is closer then you think for supplies, recommend the butcher. Perfect getaway. Thanks.
