Perfect in every way

This house made our holiday just perfect! Every room in the house was perfectly furnished, the couches were huge and comfortable, spot on for our family of 8 plus two more adults. The kitchen had EVERYTHING, catered for our number of people. All the appliances worked really well. The heating was fast and efficient. The beds were hotel quality and all the linen was 100% cotton, which personally is a sign of great hosting. The bathrooms were immaculate with fantastic showers with amazing water pressure. The outdoor areas were also tidy and furnished really well. The neighborhood was quiet and clean and a pleasure to stay in. Overall, we cannot find a single fault in this place, if we’re lucky enough to go back to Christchurch again, we’re sure to rebook this house.
