Amazing facilities with many options for sleeping arrangements, cooking, relaxing and great base to access not only places in Christchurch but the motorway and the airport. Quick and easy to shopping or eating places.
Friendly hosts with great knowledge of the area.
Our family loved it!
The property was a great place for us to stay, its close proximity to the airport/city was important to us.The property itself far exceeded our exceptions,It would be our number one call on our next visit to Christchurch.
We needed a small property close to the airport and shooting range. The pump house apartment was perfect for our needs (2 children, 1 adult) and so well located in a safe area close to ammenities. Thanks for having us
Lovely spacious apartment/studio. Clean and comfortable with everything you could need and want. Great communication from friendly host. Woll be booking again for my next visit.
We were in NZ for 6 weeks and we needed a base and the Pumphouse was the perfect location. We did a lot of travelling and always felt we had come home when we returned to the Pumphouse. Helen and Les went above and beyond to make us feel welcome including our daughter, who lives in Christchurch, came to visit us.
Friendly hosts who have stocked the apartment with anything you might need for your stay - games, extra bedding, kitchen appliances etc. Particularly prepared for families and little ones. Highly recommended :)
The accommodation was perfect for my stay in Christchurch with all of the amenities fully available at the apartment. Helen was a brilliant host and made sure that my four days in Christchurch were enjoyable. I would recommend The Pumphouse Apartment to any guest who is looking to visit Christchurch and is looking for friendly holiday accommodation near to the airport on the outskirts of the city.

Communication with Helen was great. The heat pump was on when we arrived and the apartment was warm. Everything we needed was there. Couldn't fault it. Warm, comfortable, spacious and a friendly dog. Would definitely stay again. Thanks Helen.
I loved my stay at the pumphouse. It was ideal for many reasons, close to facilities, close to the airport, close to tourism attractions and places of interest, and also shops and transport. Parking was easy, and the pumphouse was well maintained, well stocked, cosy and warm and facilities were first rate. Helen was welcoming and friendly and I've given high rating as I'd definitely look to stay there again next time I'm in Christchurch.
Great location, close to airport and quite. Well stocked with everything you will every need (except Food of cause). First place we would look at if staying in Christchurch for a extended period again. Just had a little trouble getting the lock box opened and closed, but other than that, an excellent stay.
Very nice apartment, cosy, with everything one can need. Warm and friendly welcome, nice hosts. The kids were very happy, and so were we. Bus stop just in front of the house. It was perfect for us to arrive and start our holiday in New Zealand. Thank you!
The premises were great. Very clean and well looked after. Hosts were great and communication was very easy.
Location is great and very close to the local shopping area
I hope to return to this premise at some point in the future.
Only disappointment was that we didn’t get to meet Monty the dog. :)
Many thanks for allowing us the opportunity to stay at your premises. Cheers
We stayed at the Pumphouse Apt for two nights after having flown in from the USA through Auckland and a domestic flight to Christchurch to begin our two weeks in the South Is. The location near the airport and car rental was perfect. Just a 10 minute drive and the owner, Helen met us to check in. She and her family live next door. The apt was clean, homie, and well appointed. It is also within about 10 mins by car to various stores and restaurants. The place was quiet and even has the family dog, Monty stopping by to look in slider hoping you will say hello. The apt has a queen bed and twin bed and plenty of bedding. It’s was a refreshing layover to catch up from the long flights and acquire the items we needed for the trip around the island. Helen was very friendly, helpful and welcoming. We would highly recommend staying here if the place fits your specific needs. We think you will agree with our review.
A fabulous place to stay, very clean, kitchen had plenty of equipment and utensils etc, super impressed with the variety of toys for children, a very nice space, plenty of room and fabulous communication with the hosts. Happy to recommend.
