Farmstay holiday rentals in Christchurch

The Lavender Cottage was a beautiful private property with everything one might need or want. We loved the coziness and the outdoor deck. The location was great for visiting Akaroa. Would highly recommend their lovely coo! Thank you so much!

Rob and Marie are fantastic hosts!! What an absolutely stunning location!! We all felt right at home. Loved the log burner, very comfortable beds, awesome shower! I could have stayed for a week 🥰 Thank you so very much for having us all. The girls had such a great time and they LOVED feeding the sheep!! I hope to see you soon in your beautiful price of paradise xxx Rebecca and “the girls” ☺️

Tranquil and beautiful location beside the lake. Great to take a walk to the domain and see the birdlife.

Shaun and Vanessa’s b&b was exactly what we were looking for. My fiancé and I were visiting from Australia and were staying in a new b&b every night for our week holiday. Shaun and Vanessa’s place was the perfect place to wind down and had the most incredible views we had seen since arriving in NZ. We were unable to experience the spa as we had booked the room quite late but the overall experience we had with Shaun upon arriving, the spotless room with a bed so warm we had to sleep with a window open to let in the night breeze and the breathtaking views, this will be a regular place that we stay at for our future visits to New Zealand. Shaun had also suggested that we take a mini road trip to Lake Tekapo. We stopped on the way and got to see snow for the very first time and experienced the Lake Tekapo hot springs which was the highlight of our trip. Thank you Shaun and Vanessa for an incredible experience and making this our must stay place when we visit your beautiful country again.

What a find! This was the perfect spot for our team to come together. The space was comfortable, beautifully set up, and had everything we needed for a productive and inspiring couple of days workshops. The stunning surroundings were tranquil and really set the scene, which made it even better. Thank you for providing such a welcoming environment — we couldn’t have asked for a better base for our team. Would absolutely recommend!

From start to finish, our experience at Catherine’s Airbnb was nothing short of exceptional. The property itself was immaculate, beautifully presented, thoughtfully designed, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail truly made it feel like a home away from home. Catherine was an outstanding host, providing top-notch communication from the moment we booked. She was incredibly responsive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a seamless experience. Her local recommendations in the property book were spot-on. If you’re looking for a five-star Airbnb experience with an amazing host, look no further! We wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Highly recommend

Heather was incredibly kind and gave lots of recommendations for both the local town and Arthur’s Pass. I would highly recommend this place for either a short or long-term stay. Just be aware Google Maps gets you to the right road, but not the right driveway.

Our stay was lovely and peaceful. Everything we needed was provided. Janette was an attentive host and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others or to stay again (hopefully in 2027 😁)

Liz was an outstanding host, ensuring our check-in was seamless and stress-free. The accommodation was absolutely perfect—thoughtfully designed with every little detail considered, making it feel like a true home away from home for our team. The private and peaceful setting was exactly what we needed. Liz’s communication was exceptional—she was always quick to respond and a pleasure to deal with. Thank you for a wonderful stay, Liz! We truly appreciate your hospitality and look forward to hopefully returning in the future.

Lovely place to stay with pur young son. He enjoyed the animals and playground. Place had lots of character. Thanks a lot!

I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Hannah's Airbnb, and I couldn't be more impressed! From the moment I arrived, Hannah’s warm and welcoming hospitality made me feel right at home. She went above and beyond to ensure my stay was seamless. The unit itself was spotless—immaculately clean, well-maintained, and beautifully presented. You can tell that Hannah takes great pride in creating a comfortable and relaxing space for her guests. Everything was in perfect order, making it easy to settle in and enjoy the experience. If you're looking for a place that combines top-tier service, attention to detail, and a host who truly cares, Hannah’s Airbnb is the perfect choice. I highly recommend it and can't wait to return!

A very warm, private, and immaculate place. Set back from the road with great privacy and beautifully maintained throughout. The kitchen is well equipped with a gas stove, the smart TVs are a bonus, and the bathroom is modern with a good shower. Very responsive and welcoming host. Highly recommended!

A great spot. lovely unit. Hand to Lincoln.

Joseph was very helpful and excellent communication. thanks Joseph

Such a quiet, peaceful and beautiful place to stay in. The host was very responsive and the the cottage was clean and so comfortable to stay in. It truly felt like home away from home for our family during the whole weekend. We would definitely stay there again for some rest and relaxation in the future!

I had a great stay with James and couldn’t recommend the place any more! He is super friendly, the house is absolutely beautiful and the property is amazing and really conveniently located. Seeing the cows from the bedroom window is such a bonus. It was only a ten minute drive into town and just off the main road back into Christchurch. I’ll definitely be staying again next time I’m in NZ!

Great venue for a large group. Lots of amenities, 2 living areas and plenty of parking.

Sarah's place was perfect. We were staying for an event in Lyttelton and taking the ferry across was perfect. It was peaceful and had everything you could need. Lots of interesting books, art and so comfortable. I definitely recommend this place for a stay.

Jill's place is awesome. She is one of the hosts who just goes above and beyond ensuring the guests have a great time. The unit was super tidy and self contained - equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Very good breakfast was provided as well (including bread, butter, jam, eggs, fruit, muesli) and she even left some sweet treats for us :-) just beware that the signal isn't the best, but we didn't mind at all. The location was perfect for our start towards Arthurs pass :-) Very much recommended and would definitely stay again :-)

Tom and Kat were amazing hosts! Great communication plus our arrival was seamless. Their property/house was absolutely stunning and was perfect for our stay. If we are ever in Christchurch again we will be staying here.

Brie's place is seriously a gem. Waking up opening the door overlooking the balcony to the backyard farm was quite spectacular for a city guy. Everything is clean and perfect. The design of the interior makes it feel like home. I find that just by looking both outside and inside the house, brings a certain calm and peace. This is the where the value lies. It's also just the right distance to go to town (by car). And the apples in front, is really sweet and fragrant, almost like a perfume. We took one and ate it, it was amazing. I wish I knew it sooner so that it can be our breakfast (if allowed by Brie, ofc). To put it simply, it's the best blend of nature and modern. Seamless transition between inside and outside. This is one of the best place I've ever stayed on.

Such a delightful host, home and location! Very highly recommended.

Absolutely amazing spot! The host communicated very well and made sure we were all set for the stay. Highly recommended

Lovely getaway for 3 nights. Had everything we wanted plus offered a quiet peaceful environment. Spa pool was a nice bonus.
