Claire was a fantastic host. We didn't meet in person, but she was very communicative throughout our trip. We arrived a day late due to travel issues and our luggage was missing. Claire's parents checked in on us and brought us toiletries, which was really helpful! The views from the cabin's bedroom and deck are absolutely stunning. We drove all around Christchurch, and I think Cass Bay is the most beautiful neighborhood. The cabin is a 10-15 minute walk to the beach and 10 minute drive to Lyttelton, a nearby town with nice restaurants and shops. I would absolutely stay here again if I ever return to Christchurch.
