Welcome to Your Peaceful Canterbury 4 bedroom farm escape in Sheffield

Sheffield

"The place was lovely, with a beautiful view of the mountains. It was really spacious as well with lots of space inside, and super warm with the fireplace and underfloor heating. Biggest thing was it was a bit different to what was listed, the bunk beds aren't there anymore and we'd taken that into consideration when choosing the spot and there were spare mattresses but no spare linen. So now there are just x3 queen beds and x1 king bed, or bring your own linen for the mattresses. What was a nice...

BreakFree on Cashel Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"The stay was wonderful with a location that was very easily accessible in the middle of the city despite the well-rounded cost."

Carnmore Hotel Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay at Carnmore Hotel. Even though it was a last-minute booking and we only stayed for one night, the host went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. They kindly upgraded us to a downstairs room at no extra cost after finding out my dad has difficulty with stairs, which we really appreciated. It was such a thoughtful gesture. The room was spotless, well-equipped with everything we needed, and the spa bath was a real highlight – our daughter absolutely loved it. The location was also great, with everything conveniently close by. The genuine hospitality and attention to detail made our stay even more enjoyable. We'd happily stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, welcoming place to stay."

Lakes Edge Holiday Park

8/10 Good

"Second time stay at the family bach, first time in summer and now in winter. Never disappoint! Despite having no tap water on the first night due to record breaking temperature that froze the taps! Staff was very transparent about the whole situation and offered us water to get through the night. Also very helpful and guided us where is safest to park with all the snow around and they clear the roads in the morning for traffic. Best to drive between 10am - 4pm in snow days. Snow chains are not needed but we were told it's a must to have them in car and know how to install if needed. Beautiful views from the house, short stroll to the lake and hot springs. 20 minutes walk to the shops. Towels, bedding, hairdryer and kitchen utensils are provided. Will definitely stay there again. Thank you!"
