Libeau Cottage - Akaroa Holiday Home

Originally built in 1863, this registered historic home is a perfect combination of comfort and character. Timber floorboards welcome you inside, with open-plan living comprising the heart of the home.

Enjoy the comfort of the leather corner couch, while the space effortlessly flows through to the dining-kitchen space. The formal dining set will ensure hearty family meals, while the modern kitchen reflects the historic character of the home.

Libeau Cottage sleeps up to five guests across two well-appointed bedrooms. The light, bright master bedroom provides a queen-size bed, while a bunk set and single bed comprise the second bedroom. A fresh, family bathroom will help you to holiday with ease.

Step out onto the veranda and appreciate the peace and serenity that surrounds, while you can Alfresco dine with an additional outdoor seating area at the rear of the home. This generous section is fully fenced and provides the security of off-street parking. Enjoy the beautiful orchard at the back garden, plenty of space to enjoy a picnic surrounded by fruit trees.

A five-minute stroll takes you to Akaroa’s main strip where you’ll find an array of historic buildings and local amenities. Venture beyond to the stunning French Bay, where you can enjoy a meal at a handful of waterfront cafes and restaurants.

A perfect representation of Akaroa's charm – Libeau Cottage awaits!
