About this house rental
Perched in the bush and only 30 meters from the sea, this cosy split-level house offers a peaceful relaxing setting, complemented by a large deck and a great view. This property is an original bach and offers great value and a simple holiday experience.
The Treehut is elevated and NOT suitable for under 6's and with the elevated steps leading up to the deck probably could be to much for anyone over 70yrs old and any lower body disabilities.
Its a bach that has been in the family for a number of years.
Really suitable for the adventurous.
The home is 70's bach but with some modern takes.
Any questions call Tracey 0274209650 for help.
This property is in within 15 minutes easy flat stroll or 2 minutes’ drive down to the centre of the village of Akaroa and all it offers, and is well suited to those wanting to explore the beautiful Bank Peninsula region.

Absolutely lovely accommodation, perfect position, tucked away in the native forest surrounded by pohutakawa, kanuka, kowhai and heaps of beautiful birdsong which was lovely to hear as the sun was setting over the hills on the horizon and the water was magic to watch in all it's states of settled, still and even on the drizzly day. Just magic.

The accomodation host was great to deal with and helped me out when my friend was stuck in his contra after a delayed internal flight. She allowed me to put my booking back. It truly is in a stunning spot and the views are awesome and the cabin is really cute. It was lovely and clean and tidy and nicely appointed for a NZ Batch. Looking forward to renting it again sometime. And just the right distance walking to township !! Thank you

This property is in a perfect place for a complete getaway, the house has a great outlook although the stairs up to it are steep for carrying cases ect ,the big let down is on the inside the property is tired and especially in the kitchen worktops and utensils (kettle pots pans ect) all need renewed
