Very good place and host is superb nice. You can ask for anything and if Toni has it, she will willing to lend it. She lent me a bike to go around the Marine Parade. It’s fun and relax.
Just around the place, you can slow down your place and stop being a tourist. Just have a simple stroll in the Beach and go a small walk in the nearby forest is simply re-charging. Somewhere near there is also a wetland park that suitable for evening walk. Pretty good place among the busy Christchurch city. Just awesome.
