About this house rental
Take some time out from the fast pace of life and enjoy a stay at this brand new house located in an outdoors paradise. Simple but practical you will find everything you need when you come back from a day of skiing, mountain biking, rock climbing, walking and other adventures.
One of the best spots in the village this house backs onto the Craigieburn Forest Park and the Thomas River. You'll have access to walking and biking tracks at your back door. Five ski-fields providing a variety of experiences are all within 20-30 minutes drive. World class bouldering can be found by driving 10 minutes east of the village to Castle Hill (Kura Tawhiti) scenic reserve. If you are wanting something a little more mellow then a walk around these very same boulders will have you in awe. Or during the summer months if you're feeling a little more adventurous you could check out cave stream 5 minutes west of the village. There is even a rustic golf course across the road.
The house is light and airy with windows galore to let the sun in and capture the unique landscape of the surrounding ranges. Being new it is fully insulated and double glazed. The builder had a blast trying out some cool interior finishing techniques to set this place apart from the crowds.
Linen sets for each bed and towels are provided.
Just over an hour from Christchurch, you can stock up before you escape the rat race. It's just a 20 mins drive down to Springfield to refuel.
Give it a go, once you've tried it you're bound to be back for more.

Property was great for what we needed, beautiful location, great views, clean and well equipped. Host was helpful. We were staying in the area for a wedding so it would've been great to have an iron/ironing board!

Super cosy with everything you need for a relaxing stay in the hills. Lovely firebox with plenty of wood, but not needed as house is super well insulated. Don’t arrive after a day in the hills expecting a hot shower as takes a while for the hot water to heat up… would definitely recommend for group of 4 adults, a bit small for 6 people unless some are children.
