Beautiful Home
We arrived in the middle of a severe wind event and our hosts welcomed us and booked us in early to keep us safe. This little house is honestly beautiful, comfortable and had everything we could possibly want. I cant thank the hosts enough for welcoming us to this safe home in a storm.

Annoyed as been hit with a bill for a dog that we identified at time of booking, all other places we did this there was no additional bill but this one seemed to think it was a surpruise we had a dog even though we booked it in and then wanted $70 for a broken plate and the dog

Country get away
We loved our experience at Blackbird Cottage. Sarita had everything looking perfect. Lincoln is a relatively short trip into the heart of Christchurch. At the end of the day we came back to peace and quiet. A great stay for us and our two schnauzers. Fabulous bed, so very comfortable

Our stay at Willowtree Cottage was amazing! Sarita was so welcoming and we had everything we needed. She made having our 2 dogs with us so easy, nothing was an issue. Beautiful surroundings and wonderful accommodation! I would definitely recommend staying here

Lovely little Eco Cottage
Comfortable, warm accommodation providing everything necessary for our stay. Creative decor & furnishings. Very comfortable mattress and pillows with very good quality bedding. The only downside for us was that the fencing wasn't secure for a medium sized pokey puppy.
