Farmstay holiday rentals in Christchurch City

We had a superb one night stay with Sally and Murray on our way to the Banks Peninsula. They were flexible, helpful and very welcoming. We enjoyed chatting to them, the breakfast was delicious and the garden was a tranquil haven. Wish we could have stayed longer!

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!

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.

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” ☺️

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

A home from home feel to this place. Well thought out layout and the furnishings were top class. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here.

We very much enjoyed our stay. We loved the peaceful, quiet, rural location. The house was charming; very clean, cozy and comfortable. Perfect for a couples retreat. We loved having the alpaca farm as uphill neighbors! The grandstand porch was wonderful, with a spectacular view of the Onawe peninsula sacred space. It was an amazing place to watch, listen, and enjoy countless morning and evening birds. We hope to return someday. 💚💜

awesome place to relax and unwind for the night, was spotless, well set up and just comfortable and care free. thanks for the stay, we will stay again if the time is right in the future thankyou so much

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

A great spot. lovely unit. Hand to Lincoln.

A peaceful, private home away from home. Very spacious. Lots of drawers and wardrobe space to put all your stuff in. Handy to Tai Tapu wedding venues but also only a short drive from Christchurch. This was our second time staying here and we'd happily stay again.

An amazing stay to celebrate my Mum’s 80th birthday with family. A stunning home, clean, well appointed, private and peaceful. The kitchen is well equipped. An easy space to prepare dinner for our group. We loved the gardens including the sauna and the spa pool. Great communication from our host with very detailed and clear instructions on how things worked. Many thanks for providing such a wonderful space to share with my family. We look forward to staying again when next in Christchurch.

i love the experience of this heaven place in akaroa 😍😍 i will visit again and refer more people and also im posting it on my all social media accounts to tell the world pure NZ experience 😍😊 thanks kathrine for a best experience. we love the night and that best breakfast with fresh fruits and well cooked food.

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.

Caitlin and her family are awesome, the property is beautiful, the area is quiet, and the house is spacious and comfortable. I had everything I needed and more. Caitlin was super friendly and helpful, and I just can't say enough good things about the experience. 11/10!

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.

Great place to stay for my two children and I for the weekend. Host was super friendly. Highly recommended 😃

Château Pritchard The best BnB I’ve ever been privileged enough to stay at so far! Barbara is the best and she is absolutely amazing! She would go the down the extra mile for you and helpful with basically anything! Just ask. The host is extremely efficient, pleasant and friendly. I’ve even called her my fairy godmother. She designed my bridal suite way above my expectations and it was absolutely stunning! We’ve booked in for 2 nights for my bridal suite plus all the other 2 rooms a night for the entourage. Chateau Pritchard is absolutely gorgeous place, and it only gets more breathtaking when you walk in. Amenities were so great. High quality rooms and high quality service. Excellent property and very convenient, spotless and has a fantastic vintage charm. This is the perfect spot for a wedding/entourage accomodation, special occasions or simply a weekend getaway from the city but you don’t need to drive miles away. I have stayed at dozen of BnB in NZ. This was on the top of the line. Overall, I had a fantastic experience. Never ever hesitate to book in Chateaux Pritchard for your special events or intimate occasions. This is a perfect spot to stay, celebrate and make your special day extra special. I would love to go back! Thank you so much Barbara! Love, Lloyd & Clare

Tracy’s home was the perfect getaway for our family. The house is not only beautiful but also incredibly comfortable. Traveling with two infants, we had a few extra needs, and Tracy went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. Communication was clear, quick, and helpful throughout our stay. We’d happily return in a heartbeat!
