Anji has a beautiful home that she shares with guests. I had a room with a view, private bathroom and use of shared spaces (kitchen, lounge). The view of the bay is beautiful. This location is on the outskirts of Christchurch but if you have a car it is easy to get around.

Lake Clearwater-Family cozy Bach

PubudiniRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Off-grid paradise with full-size gas hobs, hot shower, cooking utensils, and a cozy fireplace. Stunning views of Lake Clearwater from the deck, perfect for a relaxing tea on the wooden chair. Just seconds from the lake and close to Mount Guy and other tracks. Mt Sunday (LOTR Edoras) is nearby with breathtaking scenery. Thanks Warren for sharing this beautiful spot with us, and it is not easy to run an offgrid airbnb. Note: Cannot use plug points, but there’s a USB & USB-c charging station in the kitchen. Nearest store is 30 mins away in Mount Somers so bring everything you need. There is gas operated fridge but we didn't use. We found helpful house instructions inside, but it would’ve been great to have them before arriving. We had mobile coverage for 2degrees and Spark. Toilet is outside, shower is inside. Hot water only available in the shower. Smallest bedroom has outdoor access only, but other two rooms can sleep 10. All rooms have doors to outside, easy to access the toilet.

A spacious bed is dressed in soft linens, complemented by decorative pillows. Soft lighting from bedside lamps casts a warm glow, while a sheer canopy drapes overhead, enhancing the room's cozy ambiance. Wooden walls provide a rustic backdrop.

Blyth Bach

ZoeRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Pip was very helpful especially as we had a late check in after a long day driving, the house is comfortable and had a well stoked kitchen with all the utensils and basic pantry needs (salt, pepper, oil etc) We had our own sleeping bags as the linen is an extra charge and cleaned ourselves before leaving. We used the kayaks and there were plenty of puzzles and games - our young kids learnt to play battleships here! Thanks very much pip
