This is one of the few places in the area with free parking.
Every day nature puts on a show and you are invited to participate in a way that even when the doors are shut you are not shut out. Your PurePod is total surround glass – that's right even the roof!

The Greystone PurePod is set high above the award-winning Greystone vineyard, less than an hour north of Christchurch, right in the heart of the Waipara Valley wine-producing region.

The space
The first thing you'll notice about your PurePod is its heavenly and private location.

The walk from your car sets the tone for your secluded getaway, taking you through regenerating bush and even distinctive cabbage trees. As you wind your way out of the bush, views of the Teviotdale Hills, Waipara Valley, and the Greystone Winery unfold around you. Your cabin sits high above a hill, offering picture-perfect views over the vine-laced vineyard and of the region.

Each glass eco-cabin is designed to ensure you experience nature's show vividly. Better still, your PurePod is luxurious, warm and immaculately styled.

The PurePod is totally self-contained with cooking facilities, a toilet, an extraordinary shower (all glass), crockery, games, and acres and acres of privacy. An optional add-on dinner & breakfast package can be purchased after booking, or you can bring your own supplies.

It's an unforgettable New Zealand experience that enables you to connect with nature and that special someone.

Guest access
The walk from your secure carpark sets the tone for your secluded overnight escape and will take you around 15 minutes.

Please note this accommodation is not suitable for those with mobility issues.

Other things to note
