Farmstay vacation rentals in Christchurch

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!

Tranquil and beautiful location beside the lake. Great to take a walk to the domain and see the birdlife.

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

Our stay was lovely and peaceful. Everything we needed was provided. Janette was an attentive host and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others or to stay again (hopefully in 2027 😁)

Suzie was very helpful, friendly, and communicative. Was quick to respond and reply to any questions, queries, or issues that we had. Highly recommend and would certainly stay there again

Very lovely and peaceful stay!! Highly recommend, had the yummiest pancakes for breakfast!! Super clean and private and in a very tranquil location :)

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.

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

I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Hannah's Airbnb, and I couldn't be more impressed! From the moment I arrived, Hannah’s warm and welcoming hospitality made me feel right at home. She went above and beyond to ensure my stay was seamless. The unit itself was spotless—immaculately clean, well-maintained, and beautifully presented. You can tell that Hannah takes great pride in creating a comfortable and relaxing space for her guests. Everything was in perfect order, making it easy to settle in and enjoy the experience. If you're looking for a place that combines top-tier service, attention to detail, and a host who truly cares, Hannah’s Airbnb is the perfect choice. I highly recommend it and can't wait to return!

This is our second time staying. Stephanie is so kind and warming, it makes our stay more delightful. The surroundings are beautiful and we got clear views of the Milky Way and we were lucky enough to see an aurora! She let us see the farm animals again which we were most excited for. I couldn’t recommend a better place :)

A great spot. lovely unit. Hand to Lincoln.

We really loved this place! Nothing to complain about. Just make sure you read your instructions carefully before coming :) Joseph was quick to respond, kind and made sure all we needed was all there! I will definitely come back.

Such a quiet, peaceful and beautiful place to stay in. The host was very responsive and the the cottage was clean and so comfortable to stay in. It truly felt like home away from home for our family during the whole weekend. We would definitely stay there again for some rest and relaxation in the future!

I had a great stay with James and couldn’t recommend the place any more! He is super friendly, the house is absolutely beautiful and the property is amazing and really conveniently located. Seeing the cows from the bedroom window is such a bonus. It was only a ten minute drive into town and just off the main road back into Christchurch. I’ll definitely be staying again next time I’m in NZ!

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!

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.

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.

Jill's place is awesome. She is one of the hosts who just goes above and beyond ensuring the guests have a great time. The unit was super tidy and self contained - equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Very good breakfast was provided as well (including bread, butter, jam, eggs, fruit, muesli) and she even left some sweet treats for us :-) just beware that the signal isn't the best, but we didn't mind at all. The location was perfect for our start towards Arthurs pass :-) Very much recommended and would definitely stay again :-)

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.

Lovely retreat away for the family. Very private and beautiful gardens. For a family of 8 there was plenty of room and bathrooms for everyone. The downstairs bedroom with one of the on-suites was perfect for my 85 year old mother. Margie was fantastic to deal with, very friendly and prompt with communication. Highly recommend this lovely property

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.

Absolutely amazing spot! The host communicated very well and made sure we were all set for the stay. Highly recommended
